Missing flight plans by Paul kgyy
Twice in 2 days I've filed VFR flight plans only to have FSS unable to find them when I called on radio after takeoff. One was filed through Duats at 9PM for noon next day (and left at noon). The other was filed with a briefer at Terre Haute at 10PM for 8AM next day (and left on time). In both...

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...

Depression after Washing by Charles Talleyrand
My kid and I just washed the plane. Even after washing it, there are still chips of paint missing, a bit of rust, a drip-stain of fuel, and so on. The panel looks like it has been modified every once in a while since 1966. My plane is relatively nice compared to the other ones on the field, but...

Fuel Prices and their Effect on Your Flying by Jon Kraus
I did some checking around my area today (thanks www.100ll.com) about what the fuel prices are, and was surprised to learn that my home base (KTYQ) is charging $4.47 (the highest in the area), and that includes our based-on-the-field discount. That is up around $1.00 from a little over a year ago...

buy or rent a 2006 182 by Dan Luke
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...

What's on YOUR Christmas list? by Jay Honeck
Ho, ho, ho....! Me, I'm asking Santa for a new, solid-state transponder -- which is about as dull as socks & underwear, but the third digit on mine keeps going wacky once in while. I *hate* it when ATC thinks I've set my squawk code wrong... What are you hoping to find in YOUR stocking on...

Cold Starts by Viperdoc
Is it worth lugging long extension cords to plug in the Tanis heaters for my Baron if it's going to sit outside at 12 degrees for two to three hours after a flight? I have cowl plugs which may help a little, but is it really a problem? The oil will be well circulated, and the battery is in good...

Piper Commanche vs Money 201 by O. Sami Saydjari
I am looking at buying one of two planes: a 1978 Mooney M20J or a 1965 Piper Commanche PA-24-260. I have test driven both and I like the handling of both. Both are about the same price. The avionics in the Mooney are slightly better. This is a tough choice. (1) Is there anyone out there that...

Preheater by Tony Roberts
Hi I'm looking for a preheater for my 172. I don't have a power source near my tiedown. I don't own a generator. Because of all of the above I'm looking for a propane powered preheater but I can't find one. Any recommendations? Any reason why I shouldn't buy a propane one. Thanks
