Okay, so Cirrus is cooking along at 60 aircraft per month. They're selling everything they can build, and people who have bought them are ecstatic. Fast forward to the year 2018. What's going to be happening to these composite beauties? Reason for asking: A long discussion with some pilots who...

**Shameless Plug Warning** My fourth aviation article is about to hit the stands. The next "Aviation Safety" will have a piece I wrote on prop nicks. You do read "Aviation Safety" don't you? If not, you should. -- Roger Long

Some one out there must have an old Magellan Skystar in a cupboard some having upgraded to something newer. My remote antenna cable was stolen by some jerk (why heaven only knows) and I am having trouble picking up an signals. I have tried all the dealers and Magellan itself looking for a spare...

So my AI has been going whacky for several months now -- falling over on its side, then erecting, and so on. We finally realized that, with night-flying season nearly upon us, we'd better replace that boat anchor with an instrument we can trust. Although we don't fly IFR, we DO occasionally fly...

I have the Horton kit on my 182L. I like it Mike M e-mail at m l a d e j o v @ c e d . u t a h . e d u Richard Jimenez wrote: I am designing a modification kit that further enhances both the stall speed and the high speed, of the type of STOL kits that add a cuff to the leading edge of...

In the SF Bay Area, I've become desensitized to shop labor rates in the range of $90/hr. Plus or minus $5, this seems to be the going rate at PAO, SQL, RHV, or SJC. That's after you finally get your plane in the shop, which can take a day or two or seven. I recently had a very favorable...

The third digit on my formerly bullet-proof Narco AT-50 transponder has suddenly started displaying incorrectly for ATC. Specifically, it seems to be showing as a "4" on their screens, regardless of what we dial it to in the plane. Thus, instead of squawking "1200" when we're VFR, we're squawking...

We still have one of these and it works great in the simple airspace we fly in. Also good backup for the handheld GPS. The database is very old however. Does anyone out there have one of these that they have retired? I'd like to get a more recent database card? -- Roger Long

The story you are about to read (perhaps) actually happened. It just seemed so trivial in respect to other things going on in my life that I have previously neglected to report that: In preparation for an extended trip to the great Pacific Northwest, I felt it prudent to take an IPC. You just...

To all, I am now performing Static and Transponder systems inspections (91.411-413) in the Dallas area. Either at your location or mine (F69 Dallas Airpark). These inspections are required every 24 months. Please feel free to email me for more information. Cheers

Can anyone enlighten me as to the differences in the Foster LRN500 based on the part number. So far I have found P/N 805D0630-01 P/N 805D0630-11 P/N 805D0630-21 P/N 805D0630-31 mine is a -01, s/n 614. It does not have the mid-continent Loran chain, but does have outputs for remote...

RI appears to be back pedaling fast. The state sent a letter to AOPA today saying that it was clumsy wording and the provision was never intended to apply to residents of other states. It was intended to "help" state residents by letting them buy an airplane that the kept and used out of state...

I have a 1965 Cherokee Six that had the original gyros and scatter shot layout as well as fuses when I bought it. I used the existing holes but rearranged the instruments into a T panel when I replaced the gyros with modern units. The additional cost for moving the other instruments was small...

Anyone know if I can get a database update for a Foster500 Loran, and if so where from and how much it costs? I wouldn't bother except my autopilot is connected to it, and the existing database is old enough that some of the airport ID's have changed for ICAO, and one or two VORs have...

Does anyone have the pinouts for a KX155 please Thanks in anticipation Ric
