We've got the PS Engineering CD/Intercom in our plane, and listen to CDs on long trips. I am obviously slipping into "dinosaur" status, as I have never downloaded music, for "burning" onto a blank CD. I *have* burned CDs, but I've always done it from tracks played off of another CD. Does anyone...

Annual costs are a hot hanger topic. All of us who follow GA maintenance issues have seen how it goes. Preferred Aviation gives good advice so an owner spends $5000 on his Skyhawk while it's in for the annual. When his friends ask why the long face, he tells them he just had a five grand annual at...

I searched the archives, and found discussion on problems that corrosion has caused, but haven't found any dealing with the role of corrosion in the sale of an airplane. I know most of you steadfastly maintain that ANY corrosion is bad. But, in reality, how many of you have purchased anyway,...
