Hello Does anyone have any experiance with the Pann Yan 180 HP engine conversion. I have a couple of questions? 1) How many hours did it really take to install it. 2) What is an expected increase in aircraft value? 3) How do you like it? 4) Does it really go 151 MPH

I am looking for an installation manual for the Trimble TNL 1000 DC GPS receiver. I've looked through the Google archives and done a number of searches to no avail. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, Brian Cox

Can an owner do this? TIA, {|;-) Victor J. (Jim) Osborne, Jr.

We just purchased a'79 M20J 4443H. I am in the middle of getting my 10 hours with a CFI for Insurance purposes and I have to tell you that this thing is a lot different to land than a Skyhawk. So far I am glad that my CFI has been with me because 75 percent of the landings have not been pretty....

I was recently talking with my A&P/IA friend about my upcoming annual on my PA-28-180. He said that there's some particularly disturbing news regarding manufacturer's service bulletins that can *require* compliance even for Part 91 operators. The one that brought is up is SB643B from TCM...

Piper Archer II PA28-181 Help please !! We have just replaced the cabin roof airduct in our 1977 Piper Archer II PA28-181. The duct feeds fresh air from the rear mounted blower to each of the 4 overhead air outlets. The air is controlled by a push & pull cable mounted in the duct. With the air...

I have a Gill G25 battery in my Piper Arrow III (PA28R-201T). I recently had a situation where I ran out of juice after 4 attempted starts. While I am sure that I can improve my starting technique (I am a newbie for this particular plane), I would like to have a bit more power in my battery,...

Greetings: I have a Piper Altimatic II autopilot in my '64 C model Aztec which has been in-op since I bought the airplane. I bought a service manual for this autopilot with the idea of learning how it was supposed to work, and with the hope of , maybe, just maybe, getting it to work and having...

I have been trying to find the operator's manual or other documentation for this unit on the web, but have not succeeded. If anyone can direct me to a spot on the web where I can download it, I would be grateful. Thanks.

As many of you probably know, recent midwest weather has been a steady stream of low overcast, misty, and foggy days prohibiting most VFR flight and making IFR flights a spin of the icing roulette wheel. I thought it may be a good opportunity for us to review NASA's icing online...

I have a friend in Kingman,AZ who needs some help with landing his RV-8. Is there anyone near Kingman who could help? The person would need access to a dual control RV-8 as the time is not flown off of his airplane yet. Thanks, Skyking

My Narco audio panel works just fine. However, the faceplate has been glued back together twice by my avionics shop. (How it got broken in the first place is anyone's guess...) In the recent intense cold, the epoxy has let go again, so I think it's time to replace the unit. Other than requiring...

I'm confused. I've spent many years flying a Mooney with a KFC200 autopilot that has an audible disconnect warning. We now have a Twin Comanche in which we installed an STEC 60-2 a couple of years ago. Recently, testing the 60-2 pre-flight, I noticed that there was no audio warning when the...

On March 2 1991 a Piper Aztec , N6546Y slammed into the top of Justice mountain located in North Georgia. Both wings were sheared off by 100 foot high pine trees which took much of the impact force. The fuselage remained mostly intact from the panel aft. The pilot was trapped in the cockpit with...

Got a general question for the group: If a used plane is for sale on the market, what effect is a prior prop strike going to have on it's resale value? I haven't found anything on any of the valuation services like Vref that talk about any kind of previous damage. I know it's all in the eye of...

I recently decided to install an electric engine Preheater in my 1967 Cherokee 140. After reviewing the systems from EZ Start Heat, Inc., Tanis Aircraft Systems and Reiff Preheat Systems, I chose the Reiff standard system. Three items made the Reiff system compelling: 1. The system is modular - I...
