You're invited to not one, but TWO Oshkosh parties! That's right, TWO Oshkosh blow-outs, organized just for pilots and their guests. Check 'em out: 1. ** 5th Annual Pre-Oshkosh Fly-In Pool Party ** Each year, on the Saturday before OSH, we host a fly-in pool party at our aviation theme-suite...

My transponder can't be seen by ATC anymore and I'm trying to narrow down the cause and plan for the repair. If it can be done simply by removing the radio and taking it somewhere to be bench tested, that'd be much easier for me. It's some vintage of a KT76. A couple of months ago, the altitude...

I know to remove a Narco radio (Com 810) there is a hole and you insert a key... kind of like opening a CD-ROM tray with it powered off. So, my question is, if I don't have this key, what makes a good substitute? I tried using a 2" jewelers phillips screwdriver but it apparently wasn't long enough....

On 2-11-82 my plane was treated with Penalitel (sp?) -- some brand of anti-corrosive glop. I can't make out the correct spelling from the log book. Have any of you heard of something that sounds like this? It looks like amber/brown wax and is still soft in places where it's thick. Too bad it...

I'm looking for a Bendix T12D ADF schematic, for a friend (sent him the pinouts, but he needs more info for troubleshooting an issue with it) from this wonderful site: http://www.aeroelectric.com/Installation_Data And the wiring pinouts for the TKM MB75 Marker Beacon Receiver or a schematic...

I notice that the Citation CJ1s have Collins Pro Line and the Citation Mustangs have Garmin 1000s. Does the Pro Line have any significant advantages over the Garmin 1000? Which might be easier for the single pilot to learn? -Just Curious -Charles Talleyrand

Previously this list advised a split seal is used on my flanged crank C85 and I then verified my case vent, hoses and air/oil separator system were not blocked. Since rather than pulling that spinner, prop, nosecone and cowl baffling to install a new crank seal, would like to ensure I'm not...

Anyone know of a *current* site where I can download the operators manual for the WX 10A?

Cape Air, a local airline based in Hyannis, Mass., on Tuesday voluntarily grounded 34 of its 49 Cessna 402 piston twins after experiencing three engine failures in three weeks. "Several recent engine abnormalities have led us to examine the wear-rate in one of the engine components ... ... The...

http://tinyurl.com/3dy4ot As a new turbo owner, I'm leary of fixing what ain't broken. Would you get the timing bumped 3 degrees if it were yours? -- Dan T-182T at BFM

Fellow R.A.O folks, I hate this time of year, annual time. The reason I hate it is because I am 2 wks in now and counting. How long does your annual take? It was 5 wks last year... thanks, KC

I need to change the battery in my Astrotech LC2 clock. I've never done this before and I can't find anything about it on line. Do I have to pull the whole darn thing out to change the battery? Steve PA28-151 KDMW

There was some discussion of this concept in the newsgroup before, with the consensus seeming to be that an individual owners get no real protection putting his personal airplane under corporate or LLC ownership. And now it turns out he might lose some protection, because LLC owners are not covered...

Thanks in large part to the help I've found on this board, I am nearing (I hope!) the finish line on my path to airplane ownership. As of yesterday, I'm under contract for the Socata Trinidad (TB-20) I've had my eye on! :):):) That does leave me with one teensy questions...: WHAT THE HELL DO...

I'd like a consensus opinion from the newsgroup denizens who use any of the popular "fuel pricing" websites as to the one that they find the most accurate. My personal favorite over the last few years has been Airnav, but I'm willing to be persuaded that there is better. Reason being, about...

Does anybody have any real world data on this piston version of a vacuum pump? http://www.sigmatek.com/1U478-003/1U478-003%20Introduction.htm I do not have an installation that readily allows a wet pump, and most of the folks on our field believe that dry pumps are the worst idea that have...

I have been informed that my HSI is precessing fairly rapidly. I'll check it out in the air soon (plane is in annual). It's a Century NSD-360A non-slaved unit. A refurbished unit will cost about $2700. Does anyone have any recommendations for a replacement? The Sandel SN3500 looks nice, but...
