My A&P showed me that the $50 air filter she put in is the same
filter that NAPA sells for $10. Should I or shouldn't I?

Did you notice that the NAPA bulb didn't have the tit on the back that
the aviation bulb of the same number had? The tit fits into a notch
in the sheet metal that the bulb goes into and aligns the filament in
a certain orientation.

When I put a NAPA bulb into our 235, our mechanic worried aloud that
if we had a crash and the crash investigators found the titless bulb,
there'd be trouble. (And of course, the landing-light assembly would
inevitably survive the crash,thanks to Murphy.)

Just make sure that if you crash that you destroy the titless bulbs. ;-)
