I have been looking for a decent, nice size color screen GPS for under $1,000. Just recently the Lowrance Avmap 2000c has gone on sale for as little as $699! I called one of the dealers (Gulf Coast Avionics) just to check if it is a sale or a "close out" and was assured it is just a temporary...

Admittedly it was mostly hail, but there was some snow (sneaux for Darryl) mixed in with it. www.rstengineering.com/photos Jim -- There are only 10 kinds of people in the world.

This year will be my 5th consecutive AirVenture. If ever there was a born camping hater, it's me. But I have slowly gotten the hang of it. Last year was fantastic, and I have some of the regulars here for the ideas that made it that way. (Eye shades & ear plugs... how could that have not...

Today I spotted two four inch and one six inch vertical cracks in the side window at the seat directly behind the pilot seat. The cracks are almost perfectly straight and originate at the top frame more or less in the middle of the window. The aircraft is a 1973 V35B and I would imagine that...

I'm sure the experienced buyers & sellers around here have run into this before.... One prospective plane I'm looking at is for sale in Connecticut (currently based there). The current ownership is in a Delaware LLC (of a sole proprietor, who is flying/basing the plane out of CT). Connecticut...

On May 28, 5:57 pm, john smith I am not a part-owner in either of the two clubs of which I am a member. I simply rent the aircraft. All of the aircraft are lease-backs in one club and the club is incorporated and the corporation owns the other. There are nine airplanes...

I had my old Narco COM 120 replaced with a new Garmin SL40 and now when the new radio is turned on my intercom volume drops by at least half. Anyone seen this before? It has the avionics shop baffled. I have an SPA 4000 intercom and a King KA-134 audio panel. I looked on the Bendix website and I...

TTE: 2135 SMOH: 1316 STOH: 16 I realize this is an OLD engine model that will probably have to be switched to an IO-470 or IO-520, but given these numbers and if it has had no really long periods of idle time, would you be worried beyond reasonable doubt about getting another 300 to...

Looking for personal recommendations for an aircraft maintenance provider (IA) at RHV. I have a 210D that's been OTS for a couple of years, looking to refurbish it and replace engine, and provide annual inspection.

Since it looks very much like I will be sans airplane in a week or so, I've been kicking around options for future flying. My general bad feeling about owning an airplane in Mobile notwithstanding, there's still a chance I could buy another airplane if renting a 2006 Cessna 182T from the local...

They think NOTHING of sending YOUR boy/ grandson off to WAR but THEY have thier boy / grandson tucked away in Harvard or Yale! In world war II PLENTY!!! of our LEADERS PAID the ultimate price, the LOSS of a child We have been AT WAR for 4 years and I have YET to hear that The...

I have just listed a friend's really nice 210 on ebay. The airplane was maintained on a Part 135 certificate, owned and flown by an A&P- IA / Airline Maintenance Inspector for a specialized medical transport business. This is an excellent opportunity to get a no-problems, well- maintained mid-time...

Hello, R.A.O.! I'm returning to the well, hoping to continue a trend. If you recall (or care to research) the messages I've posted over the last year or so, you'll find I've been getting some great advice and stimulating discussion on selecting an airplane (my first). After considering all...

We bring our children into the world and As parents, We try protect them from the Sex perverts on the play ground. SOME of US, the Thinkers, try to protect them as they grow into young adult hood ( and beyond!) But for what ever reason, Americans are blind to the fact that our 'leaders'...
