We lost one off our field last Sunday... Mike is a nice guy who was regarded as a good pilot, calm, quiet, and safety concious... He has an older Skyhawk with the Continental 6 banger... He went up to Harrison, 80D, and was seen landing... No one heard or noticed anything after that... Later a...

I am going to the Seaplane flyin in Moosehead Lake (Greenville, Maine) from Colorado in my Husky Amphib. A direct route takes me through southern Canada and I plan on visiting Hamilton air museum. Anyone have any info on good places to land and or camp along a fairly direct route Colorado to...

There is a 1980's C172P with 9000 hours TTSN on my local field. Most things look good on this plane, except for its high Airframe time. It is hardly a looker, but I am looking for a first-timer airplane for building time and experience. It will also be kept online with the FBO on leaseback, thus,...

Anyone reading this group from the Clemson/Central/Liberty SC area? My wife and I are planning on moving there in two years and would be very interested in hearing about any new proposed airpark developments, or any private strips that may came up for sale. I know about Oakhill and Parker, but...

Here I am 90min before I have to leave to take the ATP written and I discover that some of the answers in the software that I have been using to study for the test are wrong! Mike MU-2

Damn. I thought I'd be good for a couple of years on not spending the $1,700+ on the Garmin 430 WAAS upgrade. Now the airport mgmt at my homebase (KFRG) says that we're on the fast-track to get not one but two LPV approaches with one being to a runway with no current approaches. Should be...

Anyone have or fly an MU-2 in here. I have flown one in the right seat for about 10 hours. I hear that they have a bad accident rate. But I would say thats because you get some of them hot shot pilots that think they can fly anything and go out and crash them. But then there are people that have...

When I turn on the alternator in my '79 TR-182 I hear a faint highpitched squeal through the headsets. No squeal when I just run on battery. Is there a simple way to fix this? TIA, Michael

Occasionally, notably when the battery is in a minorly discharged state (but not always), I'll get an alternator offline indicator light and see the ammeter go negative. This will either disappear immediately on its own or require an alternator switch off/on reset by the book. It's...

I recently purchased my first a/c, unfortunately it only has a 2 place intercom. I don't really want to go through the trouble of installing a four place intercom for the few occasions that I take backseat passengers. I have looked (online) at the portable intercom systems but I am not sure how...

Hi All, I've acquired a Shadin Digiflo (twin) and would like to install it in my 1955 Piper Apache. My mechanic called my local FSDO, who mentioned that without an STC, the best way to proceed would be to provide the FSDO with a '337 that was approved for another installation in the same make and...

Well, sent my info to the insurance, they got back to me, through one of the other partners, and said they needed more information. They wanted to know how many hours I had in a 175B, I said I had none, but shouldn't the 172 count? It's the same except for the CS prop. So I gave them what...
