aerobatic C172? by gt
I own a 1960 Cessna 172 with 2500 hours on the airframe. It is not rated for aerobatic flight, but the positive and negative G loads that it is approved for far exceed the normal G forces associated with a well-executed barrel roll. Has anyone heard of this maneuver being performed in a 1960 172?

Inner Tubes by RST Engineering
I understand there is a new class of inner tubes that do not leak as severely as the old "TSO'd crap" natural rubber that we've used since Wilbur put them on the Flyer. Anybody got a lead on who has them for relatively few AMUs for common sizes like 600-6 and so on? Jim

How close should an altimeter be to field elevation when set to the pressure indicated by the field's AWOS? I'm seeing a 50' error.

Depreciating aircraft parts, dealing with taxes, etc. by Andrew Gideon
Most owners, I assume, have corporations which do the actual owning and which provide a liability firewall. But how are taxes managed? The issue I think I'm facing is we pay money into the corporation against future events like overhaul, repainting, etc. These monies add up. But since this is...

Quick - what's to look out for... by Jim Carter[_1_]
What should a Cessna / Piper / Commander driver look out for on the original '47 BE35 (and I don't mean performance wise)? Where are some of the corners to be avoided? What special attention needs to be paid to the airframe? I'm looking at the ABS site now, but could use some additional...

Replacement nose wheel pant for 1971 172 by [email protected]
My nose wheel pant is damaged. A body shop quoted me around $450 to fix & paint it, and new ones from Cessna are over $1k. Used are available on E-Bay for much less, and they all seem to say the same thing - "should fit any 172 & 182, but do your own research". The parts manager at my FBO said it...

How to polish an aluminum prop by Nathan Young
I have an old Sensenich 74" propeller (I think from a 172) that was a hand-me-down gift from another pilot. The prop did not pass its inspection, and although it does not look it - the prop is no longer airworthy. I have had it hanging in my garage for a few years, and have decided it would be...

The KT-76A finally went tango uniform so I'm getting a Garmin GTX-320A with the adapter for the King transponder. Actually, the KT-76A still works but it takes 45 minutes to an hour for it to warm up so it's equivalent to dead. Has anyone out there gone the slide-in replacement route on the...
