In another venue, I put out feelers to buy an ANR headset. Any comments about this offer: "If you're interested I'm selling mine, a Lightspeed 30 3G - good shape, costs $599 retail on the internet, the lowest I've seen was $575. I've had it for 18 months, I like it a lot but I would like to buy...

What a day it turned out to be. I took 4 young ladies ranging in age from 7 to 12 to the local airport (KGMU) to watch some planes take off and land. At our first observation area there wasn't a plane in sight so we decided to leave and go to the mall (the girls were really excited about...

Mary and I (and kids) just returned from the Milwaukee Air Show, where we spent a couple of fun days with Jim & Tami Burns (and kids). We had a GREAT time. It was a very good show, although the heat and humidity were absolutely brutal. With temperatures approaching 100 degrees, and high dew...

Anybody have any comments about this organization?

I am contemplating a trip to Mexico. How safe is an aircraft parked at a Mexican airport (say Guymas)? Can I leave my 396, headsets, etc. inside the plane? I am wondering if they are more at risk sitting in the plane, or in the hotel room.... --Dan

I have an unbroken string of dated Oshkosh coffee cups (mugs) going back to 1974. I would be very happy to send somebody Paypal money to pick up and send me one from this year's show. I believe that the EAA Warehouse store will pack for shipment and there is a post office on the field if that...

Has anyone experienced a problem with the GXM30 receiver/antenna? My 396 will stop receiving weather data (but audio is okay) after the antenna heats up, especially when it is exposed to the heat of the sun. I called Garmin and was told that there was a production problem with antennas in the...

Just returned from London, Ontario where we spent a weekend at DiamondFest, an anual event at the Diamond Aircraft factory. And boy, was it some show! The D-JET is real! I touched and smelled it. I also saw it take off, buzz around the field and land, twice. I even sat at the controls, not of...

I have an IO-360-A3B6 900 SFNEW in '97. I used to be able to keep about 7 quarts in it without it blowing out. Now it seems to be blowing oil down to about 5.5 quarts. Since I live in the 100F OATs part of the country, the extra oil really helps cooling. Should I worry about what is causing the...
