I know after reading this newsgroup for over three years that many questions have been asked regarding the "best" GPS for the money...so forgive me but the Garmin 296 is so new I can't find out much about it. Lots of old articles about older models of GPS receivers. I've been using the Lowrance...

(Cross posted in rec.aviation.homebuilt) ------------------------------------------------------------ I'm dating myself with that title. Too bad today's young people might think "sodomite" when they hear the name "Queen." Had a problem with a Bendix S4 non-impulse magneto. To "cut to the chase"...

x-posted to rah,rao,rap Here's a news scoop for you all... Express Aircraft Company, formerly Wheeler Express, has gone out of business. Apparently TCM (Teledyne Continental Motors) was unable to honor shipment of their "Full Authority Digital Engine Control" (FADEC) IOF-550 engines which...

I am starting a new flight school in massachusetts soon and am looking for a plane to lease. I am looking for a plane in good condition with good avionics. GPS preferred. The paint also needs to be good as well. If anyone knows a leasing company or someone wanting to do a leaseback please let me...

I think I've logged about four days of hanger rat duty over the past two weeks. Still have a long way to go in terms of accommodations (chairs, table, shelves, etc...but having your own hanger sure makes it more fun (and, IMHO, justifiable) to hang around the airport. Yesterday's mission: bug...

Howdy, How does FAA type certification relate to intellectual property rights? For example: everything in an O-235 has been out of patent for years now. Same with old aircraft designs. Is there any reason why somebody couldn't tool up and start ripping out O-235s, and selling them new? I ask...

Ok, guys, Lemon Pledge has been increasingly hard to find around here. So I emailed the company to find a local supplier. The reply is copied below. Obviously, we have to find another product to clean bugs from the windshield and leading edges. Suggestions? Dear Gerry, Thank you for your...

Trade-a-plane.com has some nice summary performance specifications on a large variety of aircraft, but I am looking for the performance specs of a Cessna Turbo 310 R with a Ram Series I (300HP) and a Ram Series IV (350HP) conversion on them. In particular, I would like to know what their...

I spent a day and a half at Sebring looking at aircraft. As I expected, there are only a few that fit what I'm looking for. Of those, only one (the AMD Zodiac XLi) uses a Continental engine. Everyone else (and, indeed, nearly everyone else building an LSA period) uses Rotax 912s. I'm not fond of...

I'm considering buyint a 1978 Beechcraft Sundowner. I have concerns about being able to find spare parts, etc. I'm also considering a Piper Archer II. The Sundowner I've found is $15,000 less than a comparable Piper Cherokee Archer II. The Sundowner looks like a new airplane both inside...

This has special interest for me because I own a Mooney (that should take care of the on-topicness). I guess I could put this in r.a.piloting, but i don't know anyone over there, and I just wanted to share this with some friends... About 3:00 this afternoon, a Mooney M20M dropped out of a low...

Last week, my name finally rose to the top of the shade hangar list at South Valley Regional Airport (U42) in West Jordan, Utah. U42 is a few miles south of Salt Lake International (KSLC). When we went to see the airport manager to sign the contract and get our badges, he told us an interesting...

My rotating beacon stopped rotating and I need to replace it. I would like to do this as economically as possible as I don't do a whole lot of night flying and would rather spend the money on avgas. It seems my options are limited to the Whelen HRCFA strobe - I tried to use a 70509 flasher but...
