For a Piper Seneca, there is a special tool used to align the prop de-ice brushes. According to API, that tool is no longer available. Is there an A&P out there with one of these plastic jigs in your tool box. If so, can I impose upon you to FAX me a tracing outline of the tool so that I can...

A propeller set for BT-13 or T6 (6101A-12 52" length) was stolen from my grandfathers ( a WWII Vet )workshop within the last two days @ Sikorsky airport in Ct . If anyone is approached or might otherwise hear about these blades, please contact me. Please keep a watch on Ebay and Classifieds....

Well, today I put a deposit on an airplane! It's a 1961 C-175B with an upgrade to an O360 with a constant speed prop. What a sweet plane, always hangared with 2268TT. I only will own 1/3 of it, but the other two partners only flew 200 hours in the last three years total. Can't wait to take her out....

The third digit on my formerly bullet-proof Narco AT-50 transponder has suddenly started displaying incorrectly for ATC. Specifically, it seems to be showing as a "4" on their screens, regardless of what we dial it to in the plane. Thus, instead of squawking "1200" when we're VFR, we're squawking...

Hello, Has anyone have first hand experience with both the Argus 5000 and Argus 5000ce. I know a lot of users have transitioned to the CE, but functionality-wise they are about the same. (minus the color, of course) My biggest issue is that I sometime deplore the contrast of my 5000 unit,...

UPDATED VERSION. Even if you read this before, you should read it again since I UPDATED it with more EXPLOSIVE DETAILS about these UNDERCOVER FBI and NSA PSYCHOPATHS. FBI PUSSIES went and INTERROGATED a 14 yr old WHITE girl pulling her from her classroom in california for posting a picture with...

We've recently purchased one of the Air Gizmos mounts for our Garmin 296. I've seen it installed in another Cessna and spoken with the owner who says no field approval is needed for this product. Our A&P, who is a stickler for the rules(and rightly so if you ask me), says this product requires a...

I am looking at pruchasing an A36. I am 6'3" with a fair amount of my height in my torso. I sat in the A36 and found that my head hit the ceiling, even without a headset. I found this interesting, as I have fit in every plane I've flown. Most of my time is in Sundowner, Cherokee 180, Seneca...

Well, it's final--as of last Monday, I can post to r.a.OWNing without feeling like I snuck in.... Yep, I am officially an airplane owner!! I flew (airlines) to Hartford last Sunday and finalized the sale on Monday. N2509X is the world's most beautiful aircraft--and, I will brook no argument to...

Went to pick up my Baron today, and was given a ride in my buddy's turbine Bonanza (a great plane made even better). Cruised at 17,000! OK, so I picked up my plane with the new Garmin 530W/430W installation, which worked great. They communicate with each other, and the info displays are much...

Could someone please explain how to go about using the 396 as an auto gps? I have Mapsource on my pc. I need a general process.... like.... download this.... install this map.... Thanks.

I recently took a flight that brought me back in the late evening hours, and in a hurry, I was a little remiss in my checklist of securing the plane after shutdown. Landing light, taxi light, strobes, beacon, nav lights and transponder were all left on, but the master was shut off. A few days...

I can't find these information presented on a map anywhere on the web, so I wrote my own: http://www.chouby.com/apps/autogas.html http://www.chouby.com/apps/100dollarhamburger.html Enjoy!

What does everyone use to de-bug their planes? I want to be honest with everyone, I started a company that makes a cleaner but I don't want to use this area to advertise I just want to see what everyone is using.

I had an odd thought while flying yesterday. Traditionally, we have had CHT info on one cylinder. Now, many planes have monitors that tell us all 4 or 6 cylinders. I have been trying to keep all my cylinders under 400 as I believe most of us are doing. However, I had a thought about that...

Hi, I own a 1967 Cherokee 235B and am in need of a prop cable. Does anyone know where I might be able to find a PMA'd new one, or a salvage company that may have one? I've tried Aircraft Spruce, and McFarlands and neither have a PMA'd cable for early Pipers as well as a couple salvage company's...

Now that its cold again, my vacuum pressure gauge is acting up (again). In the past, when it was cold, it would take a few minutes to come up to the correct reading. Now, it takes about 30 to 40 minutes to come up. All dials are OK, and when the gauge comes up, it reads in the normal range. Any...
