Niche auction for aviation...they just went live... Can it compete with eBay? Your thoughts? http://www.aerobid.net

Good day, I understand that the seized aircraft that are used for drug running are often sold or auctioned. I am particularly interested in Cessna 172's. Does anybody have any contact or website details on these aircraft? A collegue of mine who I have lost contact with bought a King Air from this...

A small oil leak has shown up topside and immediately behind the nosebowl on my Zodiac 601 HD powered with a C85. As near as can be seen, the crankcase nipple connection and hose leading to the air/oil separator is not "wet" or showing leakage. Neither the hose nor air/oil separator are...

Flyers, While flying to FL from NJ last week I did what I always do and fly ROP by 75 to 100 degrees. This is how I was trained and my CFII is also my A&P / IA. I know enough about LOP to know I will not operate LOP without an engine analyzer and probably GAMI injectors which I do not yet...

Mary and I just returned from 6 glorious days at Sun N Fun in Lakeland, FL, where we enjoyed the most amazingly perfect weather I have ever seen at such an event. The nights were cool (almost cold the first few nights) -- perfect for sleeping -- and the days were sunny and warm. No humidity, no...

According to the comments on airnav.com regarding Modesto airport (http://www.airnav.com/airport/KMOD/SKY_TREK#c), someone mentioned that Shell has been selling gasoline without ethanol in northern California gas stations since 2006. Is it true?

I did have the GA-25 antenna all the while I had intermittent lost sat reception. Bought a new high-gain replacement on line and did the swap last weekend. For 2 days prior to the swap, I would lose reception completely on a S-SE heading. The new antenna shows 10 sats 3/4 way up or better....

Currently I'm doing aerobatic training in a Pitts S2A, but its avionics doesn't seem very suitable for touring or navigation exercises. I have seems some Pitts S1S and the same problems. Can anybody advice me what would the best...

Hello Everyone - I work for the controls and instrumentation group at Canada's National Research Council in Ottawa, Canada. We test turboprop and turbojet engines for most of the major engine manufacturers. We acquired 4 Microturbo TRS-18's in the 1980's for a research project that was cancelled....

This is a follow-up to a message I sent to the group recently about the Hartzell propeller AD. I flew out to the prop shop today and had them inspect my hub using the eddy current method. Interesting technology and quite accurate for finding the smallest of cracks on or very near the surface. ...

I just got my new Lowrance Airmap 2000C and am playing with it before I fly with it. It is different enough from my current GPS (King Airmap IIIC) that I have a bit of a learning curve to get comfortable with the new unit. After spending over 30 minutes with Lowrance on hold, then getting...

Greetings.... Despite a search to find the answer I'm seeking, I've found nothing. I hope some of those who've bolding built and flown can give me a heads up on what I'm missing. To be as concise as possible, yet not mislead anyone, here goes as to my problem. I'm helping a friend put his Icom...

Does anyone have the pinout wiring diagram for the Garmin 396?

I have an MX170 radio that I use to pick up ATIS, etc. Recently it will occassionally have a buzz in it that is so loud you cannot hear the transmission. It will buzz on all freq, then later in the flight it will go away. This unit is no longer supported so I'm wondering if there is any chance this...

Dan wrote: 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...

Decision time. Do I go for a panel mounted GDL69a in my 77 Mooney (MX20) for a big price tag. Or do I do the cheap and cheerful 486 portable route ? Seems on a cost basis that the 486 is the choice . Why wouldn't you ? I like the integrated approach for the neatness factor. No wires...

My friend owns a 77 172N. Eats Landing lights. A real pain to change with the cowling. I recently read in an old copy of Aviation Consumer Buyers guide that some of the N models are known to do this and that there's a Landing Light Improvement Kit from Cessna. I could not find one online Does...
