Hi, Does anyone have a graphical representation of the Century Ic wiring harness? The Century web site schematic displays the pinouts in a single line, but the connector has parallel rows. My (18 pin) connector shows that the pins run in a circle as opposed to 1-9 then starting back at the...

I've been struggling trying to teach myself Access by writing a program for airframe and engine logbooks. The Access part is pretty easy, but the logbook doesn't have that "polished" look to it that I want. Sort of like your first landings. The first ones are a success if you can use the...

Recently someone listed a 1960 Cessna 310 for sale for $40,000 obo, located near Washington, DC... saved the e-mail but cannot locate... any help appreciated on this or any other 310 for sale reasonable. thanks

Almost time to rebuild my IO-520B. Anyone have experience with RAM engines using ECi nickel silicon carbide cylinders?

Just a guess but EEPROM can be very slow indeed. Depending on the exact part number, it may not even be possible to change a single location in the chip. This means that you have to read the entire contents (or a large part) of the chip, change the value you need to update and then write it all...

Does anyone have this setup where the 396/496 (particularly the 496) is in their panel hooked up through an RS232 cable to a 430 or 530? I saw a post by Mikem with very good specifics on the pin-outs but I have a couple of questions: 1) Does the 496 pick up the inputted flight plan/route from...

Has anyone out there modified their spinner to fit the Hartzell "B" suffix hub?

A friend of mine who is an experienced commercial and airshow pilot, but who is not too internet savvy asked me a question today which I couldn't answer - but I am hoping that someone here can. He is currently looking to sell a brand new custom built aircaft which was built with one specific goal...

I know that a medical is not needed to fly a glider. Does the same apply to motorgliders? Juan

I'm looking for a PDA program that will do wifi to allow duats flight plans to be filed where there is a wireless hotspot like an FBO. Probably would work thru DUATs. Should be heavily template driven so that I only have to fill in a few things. Bill Hale

Hi all, I'm looking for a couple of trays for a Narco 810 comm. Is the factory the only place to locate one? Thanks Dave

The left door of my Cessna 172 is warped. I've tried the benign options of using wooden blocks at appropriate places and applying pressure to bend the door. But that didn't get the door back to where it has a tight seal at the lower side (opposite hinges). There's still about 1/2 inch gap between...

Welcome to airplane ownership. I strongly suggest you join the type club before turning any blank checks over to your mechanic. What you are seeing may be an easy fix or a common problem that many have seen before. On Tue, 26 Aug 2003 20:17:00 -0400, "Wayne" wrote: ...

I would appreciate if someone could steer me to a good picky A+P. I need a pre-buy done on a 172 near RDU Raleigh Durham. It would be even better if it was an IA and things go OK we can turn it into an annual. Mike Z

Looking to buy a Cessna 150/150 STOL. Lower 48 states only

Any info about relative cost of a high quality overhaul of an IO520 compared with replacement by a (say) second run IO550? "high quality" means to me, at least, either ECI or Millennium cylinders and a nationally known shop.

I took our sick DG to Airtech Instrument at BFI in Seattle. They can overhaul ours for around $450, or provide an exchange overhauled unit for $495, which seems like a reasonable price. (This is an Edo/Mitchell vacuum DG with heading bug for the AP). Does anyone have any feedback (good, bad or...

Many thanks to everyone in the aviation community for making our annual Big Kids Toy Show in Iowa City (KIOW) a success! We had T-28s, T-6s, a Mustang, a Columbia 300, a turbine-powered Lancair IV-P, a Citation (straight from Cessna's factory!), a '29 Travel Air, a Gypsy Moth, a Pitts Special, a...

I see on AvWeb that Cessna is, at least, in talks to buy some or all of Columbia Aircraft. Otherwise Columbia is filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. (Is that round #2 of Chap. 11?) Apparently Cessna will accept product liability for the aircraft built so far and some of Columbia's debt. I wonder...
