Yes. My thinking is this. You have one older mag and one newer. You also have one from one batch and one from another (or one rebuilt by one guy and another rebuilt by the other guy). So your odds are less that they will BOTH fail on the same flight, which is all you really have to worry about...

Kirjastaan:" Mutta kriitikot korostavat, että se 4,5 tonnin plutoniummäärä jolla hyötöreakitori Super-Phoenix tullaan lataamaan vastaa yli sata kertaa Nagasakin pommissa ollutta Plutoniumlatausta. He muistuttavat myös, että hyötöreaktori saattaa räjähtää kuin ydinpommi ja että sen...

Has anyone done much business with Ameri-King? I purchased a brand new ELT from them (via Aircraft Spruce) last week and it came in with a defective ARM/OFF/ON switch. It would not stay in the ARM position. I overnighted it to Ameri-King for repair/replacement. I just got off the phone and they...

Cherokee w/Lycoming 0360-A4A Normal flight in all respects. When shutting down, pulled throttle to idle and mix to idle cut-off. Engine took just a little longer than normal to run down. Just as it should have stopped, it caught and actually ran backward for a couple of turns before...

Given that I only put 35 hours on my 150 this year and a very extensive annual last year and the year prior. My Cessna 150 had only the usual things that needed to be done, complied with recurring AD's Replaced a few cowl fastener receptacles & general maintenance like airfilter etc....

Hi, I have a neighbor who's got a McCauley twin blade propeller in his basement. The thing is in fairly good condition and he was wondering if it is worth anything. Can anyone help? Thanks for the help! Marcel

Dear all I'm wondering how many company out there actually make aviation oil filter. As far as I know I don't see that many, but what was the reason behind it? Why there aren't so many compare to auotmobile insdustry? Was it because liabilty reason? Thanks All

Would anyone know (and care to tell me) where to find the power ports found these days on airliners? I'd like to replace the cigarette lighter socket in my Skylane with one of those. Thanks. -jav

I used to keep my C172 in a Hangar on a relatively dry region. Now I had to move and the airport closest to home is near the sea and there is no hangar space available. There are a few things that concern me: How to best protect the plane against corrosion considering the circustances? I have...

THE HEADSET HAS BEEN SOLD! for $350

Ever since getting the overhauled engine (Lycoming 0-320-E3D), I have high oil pressure at full throttle for the runup and takeoff. I don't recall it ever making it to the red line until the last year or so and I have put 800 hours on it. It was always just below the red line at the first (0...

Honest to gosh. I want to buy a TRT250 (the pushbutton transponder). Working condition not important. Reason - I want a second so that I can use them as a matched pair of wheel chocks - really. Dennis Brown change the letter o to zero in the email address

So, things are going about the way they always do when it comes to aircraft panel work... 1. Trim switch problems As previously posted, electric trim switch dismantled, slightly modified, and repaired. Worked fine on the ground. Test flight today -- nothing. Works forward, not backward, just as...

I was wondering exactly which parts are generaly NOT replaced in an engine overhaul. Assume all new cylinders/pistons/rings/pushrods. I know that the crank is often not replaced if it checks to spec, and the cam may be reground and replaced but what about other parts? Are the con rods usually...
