I keep hearing "the market for Light Twins is soft." Anyone have any tales to tell? Are used Light Twins not selling these days, or are they selling for what some would consider "bargain" prices, or both? Did the economy's shake-up knock quite a few people out of the Twin tree - people who were...

Hi, I have lit my entire panel, via a combination of "nu-lites" and instrument replacements of instruments that were internally lit. I am quite happy with the result, but I still have dark fuel, oil pressure and temp gages, and the ammeter on my Cessna 172N. I have searched the web quite a bit, I...

Am I hallucinating again, or did I read somewhere that you can have Lightspeed install a new cord on their headsets so they will take power from a panel mounted jack, rather than the in-cord battery box? I can't find relevant info on their website... -jav

Everything was trimmed!! (-; Counterpoint to the Lightspeed QA 'issue': I have a 20XL and a 30XL. Both have performed flawlessly from the day I got them. Maybe I'm just lucky, but that never happens! To be fair, I don't listen to music in the air so I am unqualified to comment on the audio...

As many of you know, while at OSH 2003 I had one of those inadvertent "once-in-a-lifetime" conversations with the president of Lightspeed Aviation. The story goes as follows: I've had three pair of LightSpeed headset -- two 15s and a 20XL -- that I have purchased over the last four years. The...

I followed the posts about Lightspeed selling pretty good equipment, and most importantly, standing behind their products when they have problems. I was particularly impressed with Jay Honeck's reports (hi Jay) about his Oshkosh experience. So, as a treat to myself I recently bought a 30/3G...

I have used LightSpeed QFR Cross Country (ANR) headset for 4 years. During this AOPA 2006 convention, I was tempted by the Bose's discount and purchased a Bose X headset. After 2 flights, today I decide to return the Bose headset. The reason that I return the Bose is because it seems to be...

Flyers, I would like to give a small PIREP of the new Lightspeed Zulu headset. I bought one for the Bluetooth capability, but I was pleasantly surprised to find it had much more to offer. The comfort and fit was equal or surpassed my Bose X. The ANR was about equal IMO to other headsets...

I'm coming up on annual time for 24P, and as usual I'm planning to take advantage of the fact that the thing is taken to bits to make some improvements. On the list this time around are new fuel cells, new gear harnesses and switches (since there's no evidence that they've ever been replaced and...

As many of you know, I am a big proponent of using Lemon Pledge to clean an airplane. It can be used on the Plexiglas safely, and if you spray the leading edges of the wings with it after each flight, the bugs just swish right off with little effort. In fact, that's ALL we have ever washed the...

Hello, I'm going to our avionics shop to have some "noise" hopefull removed from our Garmin 430 com. While there I'd like them to run a line-in to our Terra audio panel... just so I can plug a ipod or something into it while flying longer legs. This, to me, doesn't seem like a big job. I can...

I'm looking for a website that has the entire list of all airports in US that are reported to sell autofuel. airnav.com is close, but the best I can search is a 200nm radius from a given point (airport or lat/long). It'll take me over 200 searches in a grid search pattern to cover the entire...

Need a little help here... I'm looking for a source of all applicable AD's for a 1976 Cessna 150M. Any suggestions? Thanks! Jim

Well things are certainly changing around Michelle's household. A contract on dream property in Montana (room for my airplane too), putting my house in Virginia on the market and I have no idea where I am going to be working in a couple of months. To make this a little easier I decided it was time...

There was some discussion of this concept in the newsgroup before, with the consensus seeming to be that an individual owners get no real protection putting his personal airplane under corporate or LLC ownership. And now it turns out he might lose some protection, because LLC owners are not covered...

I have a couple of radios that are excess to my current needs, but I really don't want to sell them. It's the old "Why didn't I keep those around. Now I've got to buy new ones" syndrome. Here's the list (all 12 volt only): Microair 760 (760 COM) Narco Com 11A (360 COM) Genave A-200 (180 COM,...

At the Amoco station where I always fill up my cars, I noticed they now have a sticker on the pump that says 'Contains 10% Ethanol'.. I haven't started hauling autogas for my plane yet, but this was one of the stations I was going to use. Bummer! I thought that Amoco wasn't going to blend their...

Lest us say that I want to go from Here to There and it is 200 miles. Here is a city of size as is There. Both have municipal airports and lots of GA. How can I find a pilot, CFI, school or other to pay to have them fly me? Specifically intererstd about FLL and Ft. Myers, FL, Naples, Keys,...
