I was looking through the Aircraft Spruce catalog this morning and stumbled across the Aerosheep Australian Sheepskin Seat Covers for .36 AMU's a pair. I though that this would be a nice addition to 43H's interior. Any of you folks go this route? Any other recommendations would be appreciated....

Good Day fellow pilots and aviation enthusiasts. After 30 years I made my dream to cross the Atlantic on a Single Engine Airplane, True. If you like to read the Trip story and see the photos, I have published it on Hub Pages in four parts. Go to the link : ...

The club to which I belong has a 1978 Cessna R182 RG Skylane. This airplane has the long-range tanks (80 gallons total, 75 gallons usable - both tanks). I'm looking for a fuel dip stick that can be used with this airplane. I found the following J-Air FuelHawk at My Pilot Sto ...

We've got some Madra droop-tips on our straight-wing -180. Although we've enjoyed their performance (good slow-flight characteristics, unchanged cruise/top speed), my partner on the plane can't stand the looks. So, we're looking to put Hoerner-style ones on. As far as I can tell,...

I am trying to find out what this part is. Does anyone recognise it? If not this exact model then can you tell me what it actually is? Thanks...

On 2-11-82 my plane was treated with Penalitel (sp?) -- some brand of anti-corrosive glop. I can't make out the correct spelling from the log book. Have any of you heard of something that sounds like this? It looks like amber/brown wax and is still soft in places where it's thick. Too bad it...

I started this thread on rec.aviation.products, but I'm also interested to find out if anyone here has done a panel mounted installation of a Monroy ATD-300 or a ProxAlert R5? If so, where did you mount the antenna and how well does it...

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)...

Am I the only one that still has the Aero Advantage Dual Pump installed? I see that the AD to remove the pump has finally arrived: http://dmses.dot.gov/docimages/p84/385862.pdf This is a stupid AD, in my opinion. The reason for the AD is that both chambers might fail at the same time. But, how is...

I'm relocation to S. Florida (Hollywood) area. I'm need hanger space for a composite airplane Any info would be appreciated. Thanks Steve

All: I have a 1966 C150 with a Continental 200 engine. Before I bought the plane,the owner had the generator removed and replaced with an alternator.Part of that installation included a circular cluster gage that has a voltmeter,ammeter,cht meter and egt meter. During my recent run-up I switched...

The following from avweb.com: By Mary Grady Newswriter, Editor Garmin issued a service alert on Wednesday warning users of some of its brand-new GNS 430 and GNS 430A units not to use them for IFR operations. It was the company's second service alert this month to include those units....

I'm looking at a plane that has a KX-155 radio without the glideslope. Can I add a glideslope to it and get another head, or is that something that has to be built in to the radio from the factory? Any info is greatly appreciated! Chris

Okay, here's the final tale of the tape: (These are GPS ground speeds, verified either in absolutely calm air or in two directions. Probably not a 100% perfect method, but close...) Without fancy pants: 136 knots at 23 squared. With repaired fancy pants: 143 knots at 23 squared. This is a 5%...

I am looking for a lower cowling for my Grumann Cheetah. Does anyone have any suggestions where I can find one, preferably used. Thanks, NM

Just wanted everybody to know that I have a 40' x 30'+- "T" hangar for rent. It is at the Mcminnville Oregon airport and costs $250 per month. It is a new unit that includes basic electricity. Protect your baby from the upcoming winter; available now.. Contact John...

I finally pulled my Mitchell (Edo-Aire?) vacuum DG and sent it off to Bernard Ducasse for overhaul. For those following the new vs. re-new debate, I'll let the group know how the overhaul turns out. After removing the DG, I covered the exposed ends of the vacuum hoses left dangling in the plane...

Would a '79 Mooney M20J have a 14 or 28 volt electrical system? I am thinking about buying one and wanted to look at some avionics. Thanks!! Jon Kraus PP-ASEL-IA Student Mooney Purchaser

Will the King KY 197 Comm unit fit into the tray for the King KY 97 Comm unit as a slide in replacement? Thanks, Tom
