Hi All, I've acquired a Shadin Digiflo (twin) and would like to install it in my 1955 Piper Apache. My mechanic called my local FSDO, who mentioned that without an STC, the best way to proceed would be to provide the FSDO with a '337 that was approved for another installation in the same make and...

We need a super-plane to destroy the centre of the sand******-cult, Mecca.How can I build the ultimate "Mecca-Bomber" ???

Does anyone know if any of the major tire companies are still making the 2.80/2.50-4 tailwheel tire? We've been getting tires from several vendors, all coming under different part numbers and names, but they're all by STA, US made, and they just don't last very long. They seem more plastic than...

I haven't updated the Jepp database in my gpsmap195 since 1998, and thought it about time to do so again. However, it appears I need to upgrade the software to version 3.01 first (the unit is still at v2.06). I have the pc interface cable and have downloaded the update from Garmin's website. ...

Hi all, I'd like to hear from anyone who has used the EasyPulse 5 while flying, and can confirm whether it works at 12K-18K altitudes. Trying to put together a good but low-buck oxygen system. -Dan

Anyone have a copy of this turbocharger STC for PA23-250. Parts manual would help also. Danke Dan

All, Our club is in the final stages of purchasing a 1998 Cessna 182S. Much to my dismay, I noticed the lack of a 12-volt cigarette lighter (or it's 24-volt equivalent) anywhere to be found. (am I just not looking in the right place?) What are the options here? How difficult and/or expensive...
