Updating KLN 94 - Parallels Mac OS X by Andrew Andersen[_2_]
Hi Has anyone been successful in updating a Honeywell Bendix-King KLN 94 (or 89/B) database via "direct cable connection" from the computer to the KLN94's serial port using an Intel Apple Mac running Windows under Parallels? The Mac doesn't have a serial port so it is necessary to use a USB...

Least Expensive Plane To Buy and Own by Michael Adams
I am looking for some input on the least expensive airplanes to own. I've heard so many horror stories about the $5000 or even $15,000 annual, or the seat adjuster that costs $600, that I thought I would get some input on this before buying. So I'm looking for low purchase price (used), low...

Cessna 172 flap skin repair by Steve
During the annual of my 1963 Cessna 172D the A&P discovered a one inch long crack originating from the rear rivet line on both one flap and elevator. He says there is a Cessna approved repair procedure to replace a portion of the skin and no need to replace the whole part. Can someone direct me to...

Avoiding Shock Cooling in Quick Descent by O. Sami Saydjari
My engine operating manual (for my Piper Turbo Arrow III) strongly discourages pulling the power back and doing a quick descent -- it warns of engine-killing shock cooling. Sounds reasonable to me...but it (and my airplane manual) does not really seem to say how best to do a fast descent when you...

Regs regarding "VFR flight following?" (also: "need to vent") by [email protected]
I had an interesting experience the other day. To some degree I was testing the theory that a local Class-C facility would invariably vector VFR aircraft outside the lateral boundaries of their airspace. I've seen this at a few different airports where I transition through with flight...

How I got to Oshkosh (long) by Doug
Well, I did it again this year. I combined a trip to British Columbia with my final destination being Oshkosh, this time in my Amphib equipped Aviat Husky. I am not sure how many bytes I can post in one message, so if it doesn't all make it, I'll post the rest later. Trip Report 2003 Well, where...

Fuel Prices and their Effect on Your Flying by Jon Kraus
I did some checking around my area today (thanks www.100ll.com) about what the fuel prices are, and was surprised to learn that my home base (KTYQ) is charging $4.47 (the highest in the area), and that includes our based-on-the-field discount. That is up around $1.00 from a little over a year ago...

Lycoming O-360 ring gear by [email protected]
Hey all. Now that my holiday travels are over, I'm planning to do some maintenance to my Cherokee. The ring gear has gotten chewed up over time, and now will sometimes not disengage while the starter is rolling it over. Worn/broken teeth, etc. I was pretty sure it was a 122-tooth model, but...

Radio Replacement by Jonathan Goodish
I have (2) KX170B radios which I'm very happy with, except that one of them has been diagnosed with a bad MHz crystal on the comm side. The new crystals are apparently no longer available from Bendix/King. The avionics shop apparently scavenged a replacement from a used radio they had in the...

Challenger Crashe at TEB by Jon Kraus
It looks like the Challenger skidded off the runway and crashed into a warehouse at TEB. Isn't this the same kind of plane that crashed on takeoff in Colorado? It looks like the plane remained intact so hopefully the passengers and crew are...

Rotating Beacon vs. Flashing Beacon by Mike Rapoport
My upper rotating beacon has stopped rotating and I am debating whether to overhaul it or replace it with one of the new Whelen flashing beacons. The flashing beacons are all solid state with no moving parts but cost $800 and I am also concerned about noise since the beacon is located a few...

High time airframe question by xyzzy
Assuming proper maintanence and a good airframe log/book inspection, are there any concerns about high time airframes, like insurability, etc? My partners and I are looking at a warrior with over 11,000 AFTT.

Rogue's Gallery Update -- Talk about diversity! by Jay Honeck
Wow. When we started the Rogue's Gallery -- a webpage where aviation newsgroup aficionados can post pictures of our aircraft, in an effort to get to know one another better -- I had no idea this thing would eventually grow to encompass 32 different makes of aircraft! More amazingly, within those...

Cost to install IFR GPS in a basic IFR 172? by C Kingsbury
Googling the group yielded little so here goes... 1979 172, overall average condition with mostly original radios and wiring (one RT-385 recently replaced by a TKM radio, M1 Loran from a few centuries ago) The Cessna 300 ADF has gone flaky. The box tests fine on the bench which suggests a wild...

What would you buy with a 50k budget? by Kirk Ellis[_2_]
A fellow pilot/friend and I have been knocking around the idea of doing a 2-way partnership on an aircraft next summer. I have had my ticket since 1998 although I have only 150 some odd hours total. My friend has about half that. Relatively speaking we still consider ourselves newbie "students" but...

Cherokee 6 manual/info? by Al
It looks like I will have a mission to pick up a PA32-300 on Thurs. Can anyone point me to an online copy of the flight maual, or perhaps some of the pertinent information? I've got a couple of hours in a PA32-260 some years ago, and will have a copy of the manual available when I pick up...

Cherokee 140 Oil Temp Sender by Mike Spera[_2_]
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....
