Another post has raised my curiosity about the availabity of GPSS converters to provide pseudo roll steering inputs to our S-Tec 60-2 autopilot via our KLN 94 GPS and a converter. Long story short, at this time we're out of luck. The KLN 94 GPS outputs a RS232 signal that isn't tagged correctly...

I have the Zulu and the Bose. I like my Bose but Zulu wins hands down. Whereas, both have good noise reduction, Zulu is noticeably better in blocking out the noise. The Zulu has the bluetooth that syncs with the cel phone. Bose doesn't. Very handy when making a call from the ground or low...

anyone using one? what are your thoughts and impressions?... thanx richard colorado

Hello, Does anyone have any information when/if we're going to be able to get our 496 units to recieve Canadian weather information? Happy Holidays, Dico

Does anyone use a PDA to record in a small spreadsheet the departure airport, your destination airport, and the Hobbs & Tach readings when you land? If so, what would be the brand and the main features of the PDA? Thanks

How are your engine monitor probe leads and wiring harnesses secured? Adel clamps on the rocker box covers? Tie wrapped to your ignition leads? Tie wrapped to the intake tubes? Adel clamps to the lower case/sump bolts? I'm interested to hear about your installations. What you like and...

First impressions of adding Knot2U wing root fairings on my Cherokee 140: Nothing clearly different in the handling/performance of the plane. Of course, I hadn't flown the airplane since Nov 05 (surgery) so insert jokes about not remembering much here.. -- Bob Noel Looking for a sig the

OK...a 1976 PA 28 151.. After a few minutes of running, the port guage will start to fall towards E. It is showing 3/4 now (fuel at tabs), and will sag to 1/4 within about 15 min, while I am operating on the starboard (other) tank. Shut down for a few hours, guage resumes normal (correct)...

I hate repeating things that everybody's probably already read on Avweb or AOPA, but here's the long and the short of a proposed AD published in the Federal Register about ECi connecting rods used in overhauled or repaired Lycoming 360 and 540 cubic inch engines. Full text...

When we purchased our Aztec, one of the things that we promised to update/upgrade/replace was the two piece windshield with a new 1/4" one piece. This will raise our compass up and move our OAT gauge to the pilot's side window. Well, today it came and is sitting in my computer room. I've got the...

Did anyone else notice that the C195 on EAA's August calendar / wallpaper http://www.eaa.org/wallpaper/images/august04/cessna195_640.jpg has a backwards-turning prop? Dave

Amomg other planes, I've been considering the classic Aeronca 15AC Sedan, and was wondering what to look for or to avoid when doing a pre-buy. Also, general comments good and bad about the plane? There aren't many for sale to use as reference, I know NAAA and Vref list them in the mid to upper...

Spring is almost here (ok, I probably just jinxed it) and we're wanting to really clean up the Aztec before applying a good base coat of wax for the summer. We've got a little oxidation and some fuel streaking, but mostly just hanger dust, belly oil, runway grime, tire, brake, and exhaust dust to...

Hello everyone.. I've posted this question in a few different NG's and forums, so appologies in advance for anyone reading it again. Anyow.. I have a Sony Clie TJ25 Palm-OS PDA that I recently purchased an i.trek mouse GPS receiver for from Semsons & Co. in the USA. I'm located in Canada,...

I'm starting a club and soon our members will meet to discuss our top 10 planes. 1 of the planes being considered has been in an accident where the bird flipped over (C172). The repairs were preformed as needed and the plane has been flying for many years. Should a club consider this plane (even...

Anyone have any recommendations for aviation software for the Palm PDA. I'm thinking of AirCalc Pro through AvShop but there's a bunch of stuff available from Palm Gear that's also shareware.

Does your fuel-pressure gauge fluctuate noticibly ? Mine vibrates at about a 3Hz rate between the middle and bottom of the green-band. Engine runs fine... Turning-on the electic pump reduces the amplitude of the swing and stablizes it at around mid gauge. Is this 'normal' ??

Do you even know what the definition of Fascism is? Do you realize how oxymoronic using the phrase "Islamo-Fascist" makes you appear? Actually, that wonderfully descriptive term was coined (or, at least, repeated here) by this group's very own Don Tabor, DDS. I think is quite nicely sums up...

Hi everyone, Saw this group and wanted to say a quick hello and introduce you to Plane Pieces Inc.( www.planepieces.com ). Plane Pieces Inc specializes in the sale of airplane parts. We are currently selling chrome like propeller blades, but will continue to have a vast array of items including,...

I am reading the FARs and am having a hard time figure out whether I can slide out my old radios and have them upgraded and put them back in. Slide in and out only no wiring or changing the shelf itself. Or do I need A&P inspection?
