Cessna 172 with Wild Fuel Gauge Needle by jls
Anybody know the reason for this? The needle on the pilot's side is stable, but the needle on the co-pilot side swings wildly, especially when the tank is full. A float moves the needle around the dial. Why doesn't it stay still and be good like its brother?

Cessna 172 F Weight and Balance by [email protected]
My partners and I recently purchased a 1965 Cessna 172F. The POH has weight and balance data that you would expect, except that it focuses on moment only, gives no arm figure. Usually no big deal. BUT, we recently bought a 396 and it will do the weight and balance data for you if you enter the arm...

Lowrance 2000C ??? by Tri-Pacer
I just looked at one of these jewels yesterday and I am impressed. Is anyone using one? How do you like it. I'd really like to hear pro's and cons. I'm presently using a King Skymap IIIC and could probably sell if for what a Lowrance 2000C would cost. Thanks

Cessna Glare Shield Cover by Al Gilson
The glare shield in our 64 Skyhawk is original, therefore not the most pristine to look at. Is there a cover available, such as the carpet covers you see for autos/trucks, available for airplanes? Yes, I know I can get a $200+ plastic cover rom Selkirk or others that covers the entire glare...

Landing a Mooney by Jon Kraus
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....

As many of you know, while at OSH 2003 I had one of those inadvertent "once-in-a-lifetime" conversations with the president of Lightspeed Aviation. The story goes as follows: I've had three pair of LightSpeed headset -- two 15s and a 20XL -- that I have purchased over the last four years. The...
