First plane by Steve Schneider
I mentioned a few weeks ago that I'd post the weight and balance info for a Cherokee 180 that I used to own. Well, it turns out the airplane (N7232W) is now the Cherokee Pilots Association plane of the month for December, and a photo I took of the new owner in flight after some new paint...

Compass swinging? by Roy Smith
I've got AC 43.13-1B, which describes the procedure to swing a compass. What I can't find is the bureaucratic stuff -- who can do it (any pilot?), and what paperwork follow-up is required (airframe logbook entry, or is just making the new compass card sufficient?).

Clear coat peeling: Suggestions? by Mike
We had our archer II painted in 1996, including a clearcoat. About 6 - 12 months ago the clear coat started peeling just a little, almost exclusively on the control surfaces. (They were removed and painted separately, so it makes sense they behaved slightly differently. Now though, the clear...

In-Panel 396/496 Setups with the 430/530? by Marco Leon
Does anyone have this setup where the 396/496 (particularly the 496) is in their panel hooked up through an RS232 cable to a 430 or 530? I saw a post by Mikem with very good specifics on the pin-outs but I have a couple of questions: 1) Does the 496 pick up the inputted flight plan/route from...

396/496 installation options. by [email protected]
Our club is contemplating a 396 or 496 for each of our aircraft. It would be more or less permanently mounted in the plane (Piper Archer and Dakota). I've seen several yoke mounts, some panel/post type mounts, the slick AirGizmo's avioincs stack mounts. Our panels are fairly full and the...

Sometimes it's the little things that make it all worthwhile... by Jay Honeck
More than one person has questioned the logic behind owning an aircraft. Financially, it's a hard sell, and there are more than a few times when owning a plane can be a real hassle. But then there are days like Wednesday. The sun was shining brightly (and warmly, for December -- almost 60...

fuel leak or auxiliary fuel pump malfunction? by [email protected]
From time to time pilots have observed fuel stains on the nosewheel wheelpant of our club's 172SP. The only time I have actually seen fuel dripping from the engine was when I watched a pilot turn the auxiliary fuel pump on for what seemed to me to be an excessively long period of time. The fuel...

Understanding fuel servo maintenance by Robert M. Gary
The fuel shop fixed my fuel servo by replacing the spring that holds the fuel regulating diaphragm. The tech said the previous spring was very stiff and he replaced it with one that was softer. Does that indicate that the previous spring was broken (i.e. stiffer than it should have been) or does...

396 question by dlevy
I use mapsource with my 396. Occasionally an address is incorrect. That got me wondering what is the process by which Garmin (or whoever) builds the database? Can I submit an error to get the database fixed?

Century Ic Pinout by Grandmaster
Hi, Does anyone have a graphical representation of the Century Ic wiring harness? The Century web site schematic displays the pinouts in a single line, but the connector has parallel rows. My (18 pin) connector shows that the pins run in a circle as opposed to 1-9 then starting back at the...

Lyc IO-540 won't make RPM. by [email protected]
Do you ever have those days where you're just scratching your head? I've got an IO-540 (strapped to the right side of an E-Model Piper Aztec) that won't generate full RPM. Let me describe the takeoff sequence. During the run-up, both the feather check and the mag check are normal (done at 1700...

Hi Tailer Jet Airplane Aerodynamics by [email protected]
I've asked a lot of experts this question and have yet to get a cogent answer. Surprising. When the engines are mounted by the tail in everything from MD-80s to CJ Citations, why do they always tilt up at the front? What aerodynamic problem does that solve? We know about similar things... why...
