I have a mid time (1000 SFNEW) IO-360 Lycoming engine. Recently oil consumption has increased from about 1 quart/10 hours to about 1 quart/ 5 hours. For a long time we've collected oil on the bottom #1 plug but it seems like its worse now. In addition, we've had high aluminum levels in our oil...

One of my students' father cleaned out his hangar a few weeks ago and came across his collection of Kitplanes magazines from the early to mid 90s. I haven't checked, but the student said that it was from the very first issue through sometime in 1995. There are 50 of them, all in relatively...

I'm surprised nobody has posted about this. Many GPS panel models are "no longer" IFR certified! Anybody else affected by this, posted on AOPA web site? It's courtesy your FAA! http://www.aopa.org/whatsnew/newsitems/2007/070524gps.html We have a Garmin 300XL, which is one of the units...

I have a new, factory fresh database update set for the M1 Loran for sale. As you know this is a set of 8 PROM chips, and I paid dearly for them, but will sell for less. Email me off line if interested at: w3fiDOTnwboronetDOTcom

Hello, R.A.O.! I'm returning to the well, hoping to continue a trend. If you recall (or care to research) the messages I've posted over the last year or so, you'll find I've been getting some great advice and stimulating discussion on selecting an airplane (my first). After considering all...

I have just listed a friend's really nice 210 on ebay. The airplane was maintained on a Part 135 certificate, owned and flown by an A&P- IA / Airline Maintenance Inspector for a specialized medical transport business. This is an excellent opportunity to get a no-problems, well- maintained mid-time...

Since it looks very much like I will be sans airplane in a week or so, I've been kicking around options for future flying. My general bad feeling about owning an airplane in Mobile notwithstanding, there's still a chance I could buy another airplane if renting a 2006 Cessna 182T from the local...

Looking for personal recommendations for an aircraft maintenance provider (IA) at RHV. I have a 210D that's been OTS for a couple of years, looking to refurbish it and replace engine, and provide annual inspection.

TTE: 2135 SMOH: 1316 STOH: 16 I realize this is an OLD engine model that will probably have to be switched to an IO-470 or IO-520, but given these numbers and if it has had no really long periods of idle time, would you be worried beyond reasonable doubt about getting another 300 to...

I had my old Narco COM 120 replaced with a new Garmin SL40 and now when the new radio is turned on my intercom volume drops by at least half. Anyone seen this before? It has the avionics shop baffled. I have an SPA 4000 intercom and a King KA-134 audio panel. I looked on the Bendix website and I...

On May 28, 5:57 pm, john smith I am not a part-owner in either of the two clubs of which I am a member. I simply rent the aircraft. All of the aircraft are lease-backs in one club and the club is incorporated and the corporation owns the other. There are nine airplanes...
