I have a Cherokee 180, with the short hershey bar wing. While I love the plane, I always wish it could go a bit faster, or use a bit less fuel to get to my destination. I have followed the composite homebuilding movement for many years, and am amazed at the sleekness of a composite wing. The...

First flight after annual, and the alternator light comes on over Lake Michigan in IMC- left alternator belt thrown, which was replaced at the annual. Never had any problems with electrics prior to this. Replace belt, light comes on with application of power or electrical load. Returned to...

Had a major radio install on my Baron- a Garmin 530W and 430W. As part of the install the avionics shop moved the radar display. On the trip home (the same trip where in IMC the alternator quit) I turned the radar on, since there were some storms over my home airport as indicated by the...

What type of radar is it? The Bendix line of indicators use a round 'cannon' type connector on the back pull the indicator and see if it's connected. Very simple use a 3 /32 allen wrench to unlock the pawl slide it out and see if it's connected.

I have a 1968 PA32-260 which has a PET-1 electric trim. It works well. I am ready to get rid of the bow-tie yokes in favor of new PMA'd yokes from Avion or refurbished yokes from Wentworth. My problem is the trim switch. The design of the current switch will not fit a ram's horn style yoke. ...

We have become a NATION OF IDIOTS! We, by our OWN hand as a Nation are DESTROYING ourselves! We don't have to worry about some 'terrorist' Destroying America.......we are doing a GREAT JOB ourselves! The worst part is that you cannot count on a fellow american for NOTHING!

I am looking into aircraft insulation and saw some photos of a plane with AVSOUND insulation. The material looked very neat. I would like to obtain a sample of the material but have not been able to locate a source.

Although I am starting to resent the whole annual inspection process. More on that in a minute. All compressions on our O-540 are 78 or better out of 80, so that's always a relief. The oil filter was clean (as always), and the exhaust system is sound. Those are three big-ticket items off the list...

Just got off the phone. They called earlier this week & I suggested they call back (they did). Anybody else done one recently? TC

We started the annual on my cherokee 140 today (started with a trip around the pattern). I spent the day opening up the panels, etc, changing the oil filter and such while the two mechanics spent most of their day having fun putting a new fuel bladder in a 402. Compression good (78, 78, 78,...

Almost done, a few things left. During the annual, I'm having a new knots-2-U tail beacon installed. (their website says 6.5 hours - ask them for some of what they are smoking). This work took most of today. Otherwise we would have finished today - the benefits of having a simple cherokee. And...

((( WARNING ))) Pass it on if you have the courage. â€* American Soldiers are being killed in Iraq by our own ]] 9/11 was a inside job, The Iraq War is staged !!! They need a excuse to stay in Iraq to steal the OIL.

I have a 74 Cherokee 140 that does not have any panel lighting other than the red overhead. The 2 VOR/ILS indicators are internally lit as is the VC compass and clock. These are all running off the one lone factory dimmer. On full, the indicator lights will illuminate the cabin, so I run them...

Looking to buy vhs or dvd of this. Annual was expensive. Want to know if anyone has seen it, or has a copy I can buy. advice? thoughts? Thx

After 13 years since recovering, my Cherokee 140 glareshield vinyl has developed a crack that has gotten pretty ugly. I was happy with the original (when the covering was new). I liked the fact that it was solid and could be grabbed as a handhold. I understand that these things have screws...

A good friend of mine and fellow Aztec owner recently received final approval on a STC that he's been working on for several years. The STC allows you to enclose a portion of the Aztec's tail to create an extended rear baggage compartment into the tail of the Aztec. I've seen this alteration as...
