FAR Reference - Self Fueling by
Ben Smith
I was just reading both the land lease, and hangar keeper agreements for the
now City owned Morey Airport. (C29), and they both state:
"The Lessee further agrees not to transport, or cause to be transported,
onto airport premises, gasoline or other flammable fluids for the purpose of
self-fueling...

Connection cable for an IFR GPS by
Doug
I have a King KLN90B and update it with update software from King and
a database from King. My old laptop broke (it fell off the table and
broke the power connection on the inside board, I still have it if
anyone knows how to fix it).
Anyway, I bought a new Toshiba P35 laptop. No RS232 port. No...

Insurance - don't believe the first broker you call by
Michael
I wound up inheriting a student. Older guy (in his 50's) who had
taken lessons on and off, and finally finished. Brand new private
pilot, well over 100 hours at checkride. And he went out and bought a
Bonanza. And not a little one, either - a 1970's A-36 six-seater.
His CFI at the local FBO...

This is for all the RV'ers and/or pilot/campers in the group. I'm wondering
if anybody has ever made an "APU" out of an RV type AC to DC power

I do some airplane camping each year as well as own a fifth wheel.
I was wondering if something like the RV...

T-34's Grounded by
Juan Jimenez
The FAA has just issued an emergency AD that appears to ground _all_ Beech
T-34 aircraft, all models, until further notice, after confirming that the
Texas Air Aces T-34 that went down a few days ago suffered a wing
separation. It only allows a few hours of flight under very strict
restrictions to...

what a trip...what a plane! (long) by
The Weiss Family
I just got back last night from picking up my first plane.
It's a Beech Super III, A23-24.
I think planes are like kids: mine is better looking, smarter, etc...
Anyone else feel that way ;-)
I flew down to Dallas from Minden, NV on Friday.
On Friday evening when I got there, the weather was nice,...

Palm PDA software for aviation by

thinking of AirCalc Pro through AvShop but there's a bunch of stuff
available from Palm Gear that's also shareware.

Jet Cruzer 500 by

Has anyone heard of this thing?
All my information is 3rd hand, so I'm sure I either misunderstood some
portion of it, or some of it has been "lost in the translation." Just the
same, I assume that some may be interested in the rumor mill. The guy
behind this plane is a friend of my father. My...

windshield wipers by
tony roberts
When I was in flight school I asked why GA aircraft don't have
windshield wipers and was told that it's because the prop blows the rain
off - really - that's what they told me.
Now I fly lots in rain. This past 2 weeks I have flown in more rain than
I ever wanted to see - and the prop definitely...

C172 Air vents by

Our club owns a 1978 172. The little tabs that hold the pilots side air
vent in the tube have come out and been lost, so when you get up to
speed, it just pops out (makes the right seat nice adn cool this time of
year, but will be a problem in winter). Any ideas on easy fixes or
finding the...

Owner replacement of Nav/Comm Radios by
endre
I am reading the FARs and am having a hard time figure out whether I
can slide out my old radios and have them upgraded and put them back
in. Slide in and out only no wiring or changing the shelf itself. Or
do I need A&P inspection?

The cost of war by
Jay Honeck
Do you even know what the definition of Fascism is? Do you realize how
oxymoronic using the phrase "Islamo-Fascist" makes you appear?
Actually, that wonderfully descriptive term was coined (or, at least,
repeated here) by this group's very own Don Tabor, DDS.
I think is quite nicely sums up...

Piper Arrow IV fuel pressure by
MC
Does your fuel-pressure gauge fluctuate noticibly ?
Mine vibrates at about a 3Hz rate between the
middle and bottom of the green-band.
Engine runs fine...
Turning-on the electic pump reduces the amplitude of
the swing and stablizes it at around mid gauge.
Is this 'normal' ??
