Contemplating a Lancair to downsize my six seater to a four seat. Seems, though, that the Cirrus SR-22 is rather more popular than the Columbia 350. Can anyone shed some insights on these two side-by-side? Thanks,

Hey all. After some soul-searching following an inquiry post about ANR headsets, I realized that part of my problem with the plane is the intercom. The old ISOCOM that's in it is OK, but I've got a few issues with it. It has a single squelch for all four places (different mic sensitivies...

Still trying to track down a high oil temp reading. I would like to get a new temp sender to swap out. Too lazy to rig up the hot plate, thermometer, etc. to test the old one. Part has a number of 362-EW. Same number is on a friend's Arrow. Methinks most/all cherokees may use the same one....

At Reno, all the Formula One and Sport class racers had every single non-aerodynamic gap covered with clear tape. Which got me to thinking, there are LOTS of non-aerodynamic gaps on my Pathfinder. The stuff looks like basic, clear packing tape. Anyone used this stuff? Is there any benefit at...

Help, can someone help explain these compass symptoms? I know that the compass should be about the most reliable piece of equipment in the plane, but ours is acting strange.

Hey again. I have a new TKM Nav/Com (Michel MX385) in a 1982 C152. The radio is great, clean, lots of volume. The sidetone, however, is very faint, almost a whisper, and it's making me nuts. On a rare occasion, while I'm transmitting, the whisper blasts out for a brief second, and returns...
