dropped immediately to...

Door seal, inflateable or no? by
Jim Burns
Our Aztec's door seal needs replacing. I'm wondering how many people go the
inflatable route and what their experience has been. Would you do it again?
Does it block noise and air better than the standard seal? Does it push the
door away from the frame or cause too much pressure against the...

Our club is looking into expanding its fleet. Most of the fixed costs

Landing a Mooney by
Jon Kraus
We just purchased a'79 M20J 4443H. I am in the middle of getting my 10
hours with a CFI for Insurance purposes and I have to tell you that this
thing is a lot different to land than a Skyhawk. So far I am glad that

Can anyone suggest a cause for a slight roughness in a well maintained O-470

plugs, installed a rebuild carb and balanced the prop (which required very
little correction). In flight checks of carb heat, mags and unlocking...

Any Cardinal owners that frequent this group? by
Jack Allison
I'm wondering if there are any Cardinal drivers that frequent this

for a 2-way partnership and, at this point, a Cardinal is looking like a
very adequate platform for the price and performance I'm looking at.
So, any words of...

I have a 1977 Archer II with factory-installed electric pitch trim. The
trim servo motor works in both directions, but it doesn't work well for
