HID Lighting by
Mike Rapoport
Has anyone installed Xevision HID lighting on their airplane under a 337
approval? How do you like it? Any issues getting approval? I landed my
Helio in the dark yesterday which worked out OK but I would prefer a
reliable landing light!

Jim Carter
I'm starting to narrow down my target aircraft and just today started
looking at them through Vref at the same time. I'd like to read your
opinions of that pricing service - both good and bad - and any

you.
BTW, the target will...

Cubcrafters vs. Legend Cub by
Jkgoblue
I recently got my tail wheel endorsement (in a Citabria) and really
enjoyed the whole experience. What a blast! While I like the Citabria,
the classic cub looks so neat and I'd love to check one out. I'm just
a renter now but I'm toying with owning a tailwheel. I'm quite tall
and I just fit into...

ROP masking of engine problems by
Roger Long
Word was just getting around about a year ago that it is possible to run
some carbureted engines lean of peak. It was discovered that using carb heat
would improve the mixture distribution.
I had a lot of time early in the year to look into this because our O320
H2AD was apart due to premature...

Pre-purchase (how to) by
Steven Barnes
2 friends & I are starting to look at Cherokee 180's to buy. We're in a
flying club, but want our own plane. My biggest question at this point is
how to arrange pre-purchase inspections. Especially when the plane is far
away from our home base (KSPI). Is there a resource somewhere where we can
look...

Deregistration process help by
Dico
Hello,
I'm wondering if someone can tell me a step by step process that is
required to de-register an N# plane. I'm in canada and need to let the
gentleman in the US know the process. Somehow I doubt this happens
automagically!
Links to an FAA site would be great.
Thanks,

Wheel Pants Weight by
Patrick
I was wondering how much weight taking off the wheel pants would gain
me for cargo? I have a 1979 C152 with wheel pants and need to be able
to carry a little more weight. I've heard around 18 pounds, but does
anyone know for sure?

since then.
Are there benefits to replacing massive electrode spark plugs with fine
wire spark plugs?

Why a static port? by
Paul Mennen
I can understand why pressurized aircraft need static ports,
but why do unpressurized airplanes have them? I wouldn't think
the pressure difference between the inside and the outside of
the airplane wouldn't differ by that much. (When I open the alternate
static port in my C185, the altimeter...

If I own a single engine airplane that needs some interior upholstery and
trim repairs, can I contract with an automotive upholstery repair shop to do
