Tossing factory EGT, replacing with JPI or similar by
Ben Jackson
I understand that if I had a CHT, and it had a redline (I don't have one
at all, probably because the PA-24 doesn't have cowl flaps) I would need
to keep my CHT or get something certified to be a primary CHT.
Are there any rules regarding EGT? The one I have is pretty useless. It's
an analog...

Aircraft Tugs by
[email protected]
I recently became a first time aircraft owner and I'm quickly realizing
that with the uneven pavement on the ramp to my hanger, and the 2600lb
empty weight of the plane, I'm going to have to resign to getting some
form of aircraft tug.
Looking at the Sporty's catalog, there are two types listed,...

Pitot heat by
Paul Mennen
Just saw in this month's AOPA (Fall flights):
"Most pilots slumming around the pattern on a hot summer day
will probably not flip the pitot heat on, but certainly anytime
you're flying in or near moisture - at any air temperature - It's
safest to use pitot heat." - Editor in Chief, Thomas B....

Baron issues by
Viperdoc
Well, in three days of flying a long cross country to West Texas from
Wisconsin, my autopilot went nuts in the roll axis- wouldn't capture flight
director or heading bug info, and just tried to do uncommanded turns.
Altitude and pitch worked fine.
Suspected a bad roll servo- could be driver...

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....

Good first partnership or not? 1/6th Cherokee 140 Share in CA by
noah
Hi r.a.o guys,
Thru a local ad I found a 1/6th share in a 1969 Cherokee 140
(hershey bar wing). I've done some minimal due diligance on it and it
looks, well, like an old 1969 rental. The nose-wheel cowling is pretty
worn (looks like it's been glued several times) and the paint is
original & drab....

How many hours are required for twin insurance by
Kevin Chandler
Greeting to All,
I am investigating the possibility of purchasing my own plane in the next 12
months. With the soft prices on twin airplanes, they are starting to look a

investigating costs associated with maintenance so I...

Any planes remotely quiet? by
Chris Hoffmann
....and don't say "a glider". :)
Quiet, in terms of how loud it is inside the cockpit.
1. Is there such a thing as a quiet single engine plane? Quiet enough to not
need hearing protection? More quiet than other models, relatively speaking?
2. Is there really ANY GA plane that is?
3. Are...
