Ellery Queen and the Case of the Missing Magneto Gear Teeth by MikeremlaP
(Cross posted in rec.aviation.homebuilt) ------------------------------------------------------------ I'm dating myself with that title. Too bad today's young people might think "sodomite" when they hear the name "Queen." Had a problem with a Bendix S4 non-impulse magneto. To "cut to the chase"...

Aircraft Designations by David Townend
The second printing of "Military Aircraft Designations and Systems" is still available. We were out of print soon after our October 2002 printing so it is good to have copies available again. We are also able to hold the original price, too. Military Aircraft designations catalogued from 1913 to...

MU-2 by Tony
Anyone have or fly an MU-2 in here. I have flown one in the right seat for about 10 hours. I hear that they have a bad accident rate. But I would say thats because you get some of them hot shot pilots that think they can fly anything and go out and crash them. But then there are people that have...

Any planes remotely quiet? by Chris Hoffmann
....and don't say "a glider". :) Quiet, in terms of how loud it is inside the cockpit. 1. Is there such a thing as a quiet single engine plane? Quiet enough to not need hearing protection? More quiet than other models, relatively speaking? 2. Is there really ANY GA plane that is? 3. Are...

AV-SUN readers/sunglasses by The Ponderosa
I note this seemingly great idea advertised @ $79.95. Getting older I now need some magnification when reading charts and find it a real pain changing several times per trip between my RAY BANS and 1.75 readers with my headset on. Anyone tried this product? Your experiences, or is there...

Bonanza Alternator Light by Peter Shurman
Does anybody know about some quirkiness in the alternator 'idiot light' indicator? In my F-33A, it'll come on for a few seconds and extinguish. I've had it looked at twice...nothing loose, everything checks out fine, battery is charging and holding charge. But a couple of times in flight, it has...

Canadians: Estimate monthly costs? by Drew Hamilton
Hi there, I'm hoping that someone who owns an aircraft in Canada (pref. Toronto area) can give me some hints. I'm just trying to get a ballpark estimate of the costs involved in airplane ownership. How much do you pay for insurance? Tie down/hangar fees? What kind of financing (if any) were...

comanche 250 by Tom Jackson
My dad has a '67 260 - totally awesome aircraft - very fast! His is worth approx $100,000, but has nice paint and interior. Off the cuff, I'd say $65,000 sounds good, but you could check the value on the AOPA website, if you are a member. Also, the International Comanche Society is a good source...

Beer Served to Pilots in Iowa -- All Survive! by Jay Honeck
Normally I wouldn't post about our own party, but since no one in attendance will be able to post until after Oshkosh, I thought I might post a little round up for those who couldn't make it: a) Many beers were served. In fact, we had to buy more beer mid-way through the evening. No injuries...

WOT in cruise? by Roger Long
I was always taught that WOT was a "renter's setting" and that you should back off to 2300-2400 if you want to get good life out of your engine. I keep running across the Advanced Pilot Seminar guys asking, "Why EVER be partial throttle in cruise? Of course, they are probably also talking about...
