Philosophical question on owning & IFR rating by TTA Cherokee Driver
I'm a 160-hour PPL and a club member. My club is great and economical, but availability and flexibility are becoming big drawbacks, so I'm toying with the idea of buying a plane. It's hard to justify on strictly financial terms because the club is such a good deal, but how many times can you...

M20 Air/Oil Separator by tony roberts
So I have been reading this thread and it seems to have gone off into a which is hotter - more oil or less oil kind of debate. But right now I am considering buying one of these separators, so would like to bring it back to the original discussion. Does it stop oil from coming out of the breather...

Frances refugees by Dan Luke
At least a dozen aircraft from Florida were parked on the north ramp at BFM this afternoon. I didn't meet any of the pilots, so I couldn't ask why they would flee a hurricane yet park at a coastal airport on the edge of the projected path of the storm. I realize that the storm probably will be...

KNS-80/KNI-520 encoder bad? by [email protected]
OK... question for those in the know. I've got a KNI-520 connected to a KNS-80 RNAV. The DME, localizer, and RNAV *distance* work fine, but the VOR needle doesn't deflect properly recently. If you try to center it, it won't stay in the center, but rather will twitch from pegged on one side to...

KX155 KX 155A Anybody know the difference? by Mike Rapoport
The KX155 in my "new" airplane (Helio Courier) seems to have bitten the dust. It looks like an old POS and I am trying to figure out what to do. What are the functional differences between the KX155, KX165 and the KX155A and KX165A? The airplane has a Garmin 300XL as #1 and a switching relay...

M20 Air/Oil separator by Jay Honeck
Atlas just got his oil/air separator installed today. (For those who may not know, Atlas is our '74 Cherokee Pathfinder, so-named because he can lift literally anything we can fit inside!) We picked this new accessory up at OSH '04, after much debate. (It's a helluva lot of money for what looks...

Owner replacement of Nav/Comm Radios by endre
I am reading the FARs and am having a hard time figure out whether I can slide out my old radios and have them upgraded and put them back in. Slide in and out only no wiring or changing the shelf itself. Or do I need A&P inspection?
