I thought you might all find this story interesting. Me, I'm 53 and have been flying since 1988 with about 1000 hrs. My partner is a CFI and we've been in a Cherokee 140 partnership for about 12 years. We have a 1974 Cherokee Cruiser, which we normally keep well maintained (!). About a week...

I am thinking about a Droid phone update. Are there any aviation applications available for it? I suppose I could access airnav.com or aeroplanner, but there might be something already customized. You people that have one, comments? Bob

If you own your own aircraft and would like to add an instrument rating or turn your private certficate into a commercial ticket please drop me an email. I'm a recently qualified CFI/CFII/MEI based in Oakland. My rates are reasonable and I have a flexible schedule.

I took a quick look at the pin in the forward shaft that connects the u-joint to the t-bar in my 74 Archer. Unfortunately there is no witness hole, so the pin will be pulled to check for the pin to shaft end distance. Has anyone found a witness hole in the shaft? I'm guessing that at some...

I remember one of the posters to this group bought an XL. I was wondering how the AD is affecting him and how Zenith is helping with the situation. Best Regards, Mike.

My partner and I are having a discussion about how the original pilot's shoulder belt tensioner is supposed to work in our 1978 Arrow III. Currently, it always applies tension, which bothers him a bit during long flights. He thinks it should latch or ratchet so that once it finds a position,...

Hi folks, I was in the process of purchasing an AA-5A cheetah this week and spoke with the owner about it. Pictures looked good and the specs were reasonable for the price. Then I inquire about damage and use. NDH, great. But then came the bombshell. I asked and he said that he sees around 112-115...

Do any of you have experience repairing a slight, but annoying, leak in a wet wing tank? Mine's on a 1980 182Q.

The exterior door latch paddle is spring loaded to close - it opens in the "suicide" i.e. blow open direction. The two coil springs holding the paddle closed were made of regular steel, so they corrode and finally break. Stainless springs are better. It is a regular performance to remove the...

"In the wake of a Nov. 6 accident involving a Zodiac CH601XL, the FAA issued a special airworthiness information bulletin recommending that before further flight the aircraft be brought into compliance with a safety directive/safety alert from Aircraft Manufacturing & Design, which manufactures...

I did this flight with a discussion in mind with another Sundowner pilot. He was saying best he could do was 95 knots with 2400 RPM in his Sundowner which I thought were awefully low performance values.. Discussion with him does make me think, am I getting the most bang out of my 180 ponies??? ...

Has anyone here done this? I am considering the acquisition of a C175a with a runout engine and replacing the engine with an O-300 engine. Is there a kit for doing this? Does the engine mount have to be replaced? I am guessing the airframe is just a C172 airframe. Am I wrong? Does the cowling...

Airshow in Jackson MS - Video Ear plugs optional when viewing :-) First time I have ever been to an airshow of this magnitude. I was there only three hours of the 7 hour show and the following videos are highlights of what I had seen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zx-KugHZ3gY (non jet...

I have read conflicting recommendations for take-off power in a M20J. Some people seem to suggest that it's best to reduce MP/RPM to 25/2500 after 500 feet, while others suggest full throttle/2600 until cruise altitude reached. Any thoughts ?
