cylinder replacement by [email protected]
A new cylinder doesn't have to be $1500. New Superiors are under $900 from factorycylinders.com. Thanks for the note. The cylinder shop gave us a quote of around $7000 for four new Superior cylinders. Granted, that does include their labor in inspecting/disassembling the existing cylinders,...

Interface my Motorola RAZR phone with the airplane intercom/headset? by Mark Hansen
I'm not sure where to ask this question. Most headsets or intercoms have a way to interface your cellular phone, via the cell phone's headset jack. However, the Motorola RAZR V3 phone doesn't have one - at least not the typical 2.5mm type. It does have a 5-pin mini-USB jack which can be used with...

Cessna's next piston single by [email protected]
Has anyone heard any more details about what Cessna is doing for their new piston single? Last I heard, they had confirmed that there is a new plane in the works, but there weren't any details on what it is. I'm guessing they will be showing something at Oshkosh this year. My speculation (which is...

How good are YOU with a map, E6B and a stopwatch? I don't know if this is of any interest to the group, but the Hayward Air Race is going to be held on May 18-21. It is a graded, precision event much like a road rally, except we do it in airplanes. The event is run in two legs. From Hayward, CA...

King KX155 question by Kobra
Flyers, I have a Bendix-King KX155 which I use as my primary radio. Lately I have major distortion only on certain frequencies. For example I frequently talk to Atlantic City Approach on 134.25 and the reception is garbled. I have limited data on some things since this is a new problem. But I...

Did TKM go out of business (maker of MX radios) by Robert M. Gary
I've been trying to get ahold of TKM to ask a question about my MX-170B. Their phone number just goes to voicemail, their fax goes unanswered as does their email. I know they still sell new radios but did the just disappear recently? Does anyone have a better contact for these guys? -Robert

Pitot Heat Failure in a Piper by Marco Leon
I have a 1978 Warrior II and it looks like the heat element went south. The circuit breaker is fine so I believe that's the problem but I'm open to suggestions. My A&P is out of town so I'd like to try and get a head start by ordering parts if possible. Can anyone recommend a source to get...

Now I"m getting 20 lbs (steady, not bouncing), it also drops down to about 15 after shutting off the electric pump for about 1 second. These values are all within the green range but...

Can all HSI's be slaved -- should they be? by Dico
Hello, I'm just reading up on HSI's and I notice some planes have HSI's that are not slaved. I know this means i'm supposed to check it every 15 minutes or so to make sure the HSI and the compass jive. I guess I should still do that even if it was slaved... but what I am wondering is if you can...
