I was wondering if someone could give some insight into the various options for a carb temp guage for my 67 skylane with a Continental 0-470.

Hey folks, I've been sitting here thinking about our upcoming get together in OSH, and I realized that not only don't we know what each other looks like, but -- worse! -- we don't know what each other's planes look like! This seems to be a major failing of this newsgroup, if you ask me. I...

Hi Today I was flying north and my ADF was tuned to an NDB. The needle pointed at 330 degrees (or 11 O'clock) until I reached the NDB, and then it swung until it pointed behind. I dialed up the next NDB and it pointed at 330 again until passage. And I dialed up another NDB - same indication - all...

Hi, Planning to put a GPSmap 196 for backup in my Cessna 172 I would like to know whether somebody has mounted a 196 on the 172 yoke? May I learn about the mounting used - original Garmin or OEM hardware like RAM? Any drawbacks or pros experienced with either gear? Otto Braasch (EDML)

Has anyone had any experience with the 'skylight' brand of wing lighting? I have never heard of it until today when I saw it in a flyer for Cherokee Pilots Assoc. I have been looking at wingtip lighting... but it's pricey. The skylight lighting is mounted into the leading edge, rather than the...

Can anyone tell me if there is any hangar space available in south east florida? Dave N415DK

After considerable research, I have pretty much written off adding weather to my Garmin 530 right now. It looks like the GDL-49 just doesn't do what I want, and is too susceptable to interference for efficient delivery of detailed weather, and you have to add another damned VHF antenna (which would...

It won't help on your 2008 tax return, but this article on aviation taxes talks about some new tax benefits available if you purchase an aircraft in 2009. http://pilotadvice.com/news/aviation-tax-ideas-2009 Does anyone have tax tips that might help aircraft owners in 2008???

Perhaps someone here can suggest where to start looking for this problem: Ocassionally, the electric trim on my '78 Mooney 201 will stop working for "nose up". When I press the button and push forward the trim will run nose down, buy the other way - nothing. While I have the button pressed, the...

If you go to http://www.ontarioseaplane.com and click on "photo gallery" then click on "interesting floatplane pictures", there is a Cherokee on floats. Probably one of only 2 or 3 in the world. (There ya go Jay Honeck!)

Hello community, imagine you have a plane (rented) with a build in 2-place intercom (sigtronics in this case) and want to give your passengers their own headsets, so you can communicate with them. It is not necessary for them to hear the radio transmissions you make, although, it would be nice (if...

Day 48 (The Seats) Just completed the seats. Not as tough or as time consuming as I thought it would be. Maybe 10 hours total time. As I said in the previous installment, I reused the rear foam. The rear seat backs rolled back on without a hitch. Minimal adjusting to get it to look just right. I...

We are about to order a factory rebuilt Lycoming IO-360-C1C6 engine for our Arrow IV. The engine comes with a new starter, and we can choose either the "conventional" Prestolite MZ-4222 or the "light weight" Sky-Tech 149-12PM. Price is the same either way. We have never used anything but...

Somebody got away with one of my Piper service manuals, probably by accident, but gone nonetheless. Seems somebody on this ng was telling about a new service that has them reprinted on CDROM. Can anybody point me to this source? Jim

Could someone fill me in on the Aerostar fuel system? The one in question is a 602P. IIRC, Ted Smith designed it as a "Leave it alone and burn all the fuel in the airplane" type system. But wasn't there a lawsuit over one years ago? Al G
