A Glass Panel for my old airplane? by
Brenor Brophy
Well my 1980 Skylane might not be exactly old by airplane standards, but its
panel is really showing its age. It has the original factory installed
avionics package, (Cessna ARC radios...).
I've been planning a major panel upgrade/replacement since I got the plane
two years ago. The current plan...

A milestone and a couple of firsts in the Arrow today by
Jack Allison
1) I received my complex endorsement. Whoo hoo, I can not go out solo
in *my* airplane. Hopefully, I'll get a chance to do so this week.
I'll probably go out and just focus on landings for a bit. It will be
my first time flying solo since last July. It's going to seem very
different with nobody...

A Perfect Flying Day by
Mike Adams
On Friday, I had the perfect opportunity to demonstrate the fun and beauty
of general aviation, and thought I should share it with you all, just so
you don't feel sorry for us next summer when it's 110 degrees hot here!
We had some out of town visitors from Minnesota, here in the Southwest for

A Piper Cherokee 140... good first plane? by
Cecil Chapman
I'm beginning the process of looking for my own plane and have heard lots of
advice. Most have advised against getting something like a Cherokee 140 and
opt instead for something like a Cessna 172 or a Cherokee 180. Now, most
172 N's that I've flown have a 160 HP engine. It is my understanding...

A real head-scratcher by
Jay Honeck
So we hop in the plane yesterday for the 50 minute flight to
Janesville, WI, and I notice that the display on our JPI EDM-700
engine analyzer looks funny.
Some of the LED numbers are missing pieces. Most are not. All the
vertical graph/bars appear to be fine.
Now for the odd part: The missing...

A Rec.Aviation FRS Channel @ Oshkosh this year? by
Bob Chilcoat
IIRC, last year someone (Jim Weir?) designated a Rec.Aviation FRS channel so
that everyone could find each other more easily. My brothers and I plan on
being there this year. Did it work out and was it any help last year? Are
there plans for repeating such a thing this year. If so, what...

A simple Flight to ACY by

Hello fellow flyers,
My apologies in advance if this is boring. This is my very first attempt at
making a video of any kind. Give it a look and all comments are welcome.
BTW, I already know I didn't hold the centerline on lift-off (embarrassed
look). ALieb noticed that right away. I had a...

A strange richness... by
Jay Honeck
On our flight to Nevada, I was impressed with the smoothness and
car-like predictability of Jim Burns' start-up technique with his
Lycoming IO-540s. Jim had a way to start them that I'd not seen
demonstrated before, which I will describe he

A title problem, but I want to buy. How handle? by
Michael Horowitz
I located a plane I'd like to buy; unfortunately somewhere along the
way the FAA didn't get some paperwork and the current owner didn't get
clear title.
Is there anything I can do to 'buy' the a/c and start working on it,
or do I have to sit on my hands? - Mike

A week ago I became a new co-owner by
bdl
I thought I had posted this last week, but it appears it never got to
the Usenet at large so here's try #2. After all the praise Jack
Allison's been getting on his new bird, I've become a little jealous.
(And what a nice bird it is Jack)
I've become a new co-owner in a 4-way in an existing...
