Which oil filter can cutter do you or your mechanic use? There are several available and the prices are as varied as their claims. Wondering what you use and which ones to avoid. Currently we've taken our filters to a friends and borrowed him, his cutter, and his time. Time to buy one of my...

I read an interesting thread where someone pointed out that all shimmy preventitive devices are designed to stop something that has already started, and that wheel balancing may stop a shimmy from ever starting. Makes sense, but my question is; What, if any, is the normal method of balancing...

The first week in January, my partner & I took out 67 Cherokee Six 260 in for it's first interior update. We have owned the plane for almost two years and the original interior, while in great shape for it's age needed to be replaced. While they were in there we opted for new seat belts, 1/4"...

As you may or may not know, Piper changed their wheel pants (at least on the Warrior) around 1978. IMHO the later model pants are quite a bit nicer/better than the old ones. Now the question is, I own a '75 Warrior. Can I legally put the later model pants on it? If so, what's required in terms...

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...

Anyone know...Do I need a Digital to Analog converter to connect my Garmin 396 to my Century Ic? Anyone got any schematics? Does anyone have a setup like this? How efficient is the wing leveler (does it hold a track when slaved to a gps source)? Thanks, Kelly

Where can I get one? I looked at places like Aircraft Spruce and found nothing. My panel is cracked and chipped in numerous places. It looks like crap. I know you can buy replacement panels without the holes drilled for chearp. I can take care of the holes.

Recently, I had an A&P put the wrong vacuum pump into my Piper Turbo Arrow 3 (the work was done about 3 weeks ago). When I started the engine, the wrror was obvious because none of the vacuum instruments functioned. The D.G. was spinning wildly. The A&P was there when I started my engine and saw...

I am considering this: 1/13th share in '97 172R. GPS. 2200TT, couple hundred hours on a new engine. Buy-in: $3800 Dues: $150/month flat plus $38/hr wet for time. It seems like a pretty good deal to me. The aircraft is immaculate and makes the 20+ year-old 152s I've been driving seem like.....

WIth 4 hours on the fresh top overhaul I decided it was time to balance the prop as we removed the weights when sending the props out for new studs... I was delayed a bit at my monthly meeting down in Grand Blanc and got back to the airport at a quarter to one... The Kid was chomping at the bit......

I looked at a 1969 Mooney M20F over the weekend, and was surprised to see how narrow it is in the cockpit. While sitting in the pilot's seat, I was pushed to the right by the left side of the cabin, and was not able to sit directly behind the control yoke. Perhaps I'm just too big for this...

I managed to get some 1300L contact cement on the windshield of my Helio Courier while reattaching the vinyl to the glareshield. Does anyone know if I can use "adhesive remover" on an acrylic windshield without causing crazing? Any other suggestions? Thanks! Mike MU-2

I'm taking my PPL and trying to locate a decent/depedable 152 to purchase rather than keep renting.Also how many hours on the TTAF time is too many before problems arise. It seems most flight schools are selling around 9k-10k hours? Any 152 sellers out there? Thanks Jay Nashville TN
