Mooney Rocket by
Al
Is anyone interested in a Mooney Rocket? A friend here has one up for sale,
$150,000(us). The 325hp TSIO 520 has 405 hours, the airframe about 7000.
Extra tanks, spoilers, GM530 etc. I do believe it has a minor damage
history, gear up landings. (Yes, plural)

Vaccuum Pressure Gauge by
Al
Now that its cold again, my vacuum pressure gauge is acting up (again). In
the past, when it was cold, it would take a few minutes to come up to the
correct reading. Now, it takes about 30 to 40 minutes to come up. All
dials are OK, and when the gauge comes up, it reads in the normal range.
Any...

Hangar construction question - Level Hangars? by
Al G[_1_]
Our City Council recently had some t-hangars built at KRBG. They were
built on a slope, I think 1.5%. The doors open real easily one way, and need
help going the other way. The floors aren't level, the walls aren't
vertical, albeit not by very much.
My question is: Doesn't this cause some...

AeroStar Fuel system? by
Al G[_1_]
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?

MoGas Tips, Tricks, Concerns, How To by
Al Gilson
We have a 1964 Cessna 172E with a Continental 0-300D. It has the
AutoGas STC, but we've never used anything but 100LL. We've had some
lead deposits and a stuck valve last spring.
With the rising cost of 100LL at our airport, I'm looking at starting to
use 87 Unleaded auto gas.
Is there a...

Cessna Glare Shield Cover by
Al Gilson
The glare shield in our 64 Skyhawk is original, therefore not the most
pristine to look at. Is there a cover available, such as the carpet
covers you see for autos/trucks, available for airplanes?
Yes, I know I can get a $200+ plastic cover rom Selkirk or others that
covers the entire glare...

Strange Vibrations by
Al Gilson
We have a 1964 Cessna 172 E with the 145hp Continental 0-300D and a
McCauley fixed pitch prop. Last Saturday, I flew the aircraft for about
an hour. We were at about 3,500 msl with an air temp of about 42F.
There were some low clouds at about 4,200 msl. No problems. Later in
the day, my plane...

Autogas STC Paperwork by
Al Gilson
Our 1964 Skyhawk has a placard by the fuel cap indicating that it is
approved for unleaded auto fuel. However, I don't have any paperwork
showing that it has an STC for autofuel. Any ideas on how I could
research this information? Or...is the placard all I need?
Thanks.

This is a test. It is only a test. If this were a real emergency, you
would have been instructed to tune to a computer with official information.

Lycoming IO-360 issues by
Al Marzo
Have you ever done an in-flight mag check? The folks at GAMI suggest
this all the time, as does John Deakin of Advanced Pilot Seminars.
If you have an engine management instrument like the JPI, EI or GEM
you can do this to check for a bad plug that wouldn't normally show
up. First you'll...

fiddle with the sectionals all at once! Well, maybe one at a time.
I've seen ads for these guys with prices ranging from $19.95 to $170.

Upholstery Cleaner? by

Seemed like such a good idea . Save some money by going with cloth
upholstery rather than leather when I renovated the interior of my '60

C-182's to avoid? by
Alan Browne
I was speaking with a somewhat smug fellow the other day who claimed
older C-182's (1968 that I'm looking at) had inefficient wings and that
the Continental would not make it to 1500 hours; 1300 if I'm lucky. (The
one I'm looking at has 61 SMOH; about 5000 total; new paint, interior,
etc.). As...
