LightSpeed QFR CC ANR vs Bose Aviation X by
jbskies
I have used LightSpeed QFR Cross Country (ANR) headset for 4 years.
During this AOPA 2006 convention, I was tempted by the Bose's discount
and purchased a Bose X headset. After 2 flights, today I decide to
return the Bose headset.
The reason that I return the Bose is because it seems to be...

GPS loss of signal explanation by
Jay Honeck
http://www.scn.org/~bk269/gps.html
This is an interesting site that explains why some pilots (seemingly
mostly running Garmin-brand portable GPS units) are having trouble with
losing satellite lock.
So far I've not had any trouble with our new 496 (and I've never had
any trouble with the Lowrance...

Turbo performance vs non-turbo by
John Doe
Ok, another turbo question:
Can someone please explain to me the performance gain by going above 30" MP
(say, during takeoff) on a turbo'd engine.
How much better performance are you getting from the engine at say 35"MP on
takeoff vs a non-turbo'd engine that's going to max out around 29"?
Is it...

equipment list? by
Tim
What is required as far as a formal equipment list for part 91
operations? In reading 91.205 and listening to one instructor I know, I
cannot reconcile what he says with the FARs. He states that an aircraft
must have an equipment list. I cannot find an equipment list for the
plane I fly...

Garmin 430/530 and WAAS: Delayed again? by
Andrew Gideon
I've been surprised to read nothing here about the new delay for WAAS on the
430/530s. Perhaps it's not new to everyone else?
It was supposed to be available this summer. It's not. It's now projected
for third quarter of 2006. However, one must order before some time this
year to lock in the...

Proposed costs may endanger small air services by
Guv Bob
Anyone know anything about this? The video says new taxes and fees have been proposed for general aviation and it could shut down service to small airports.... The usual gloom and doom lobby stuff.
There's nothing specific on the website except to "send money." Do you know what "new...

Stiction in the yoke by
Jay Honeck
A previous owner, in an attempt to make his yokes move more freely, used dry
graphite in the yokes on our Pathfinder.
Of course, as moisture and condensation came and went, this graphite clumped
up and got gritty. This would restrict motion, so he apparently added MORE
graphite.
Long story...

Known Icing requirements by
Jeffrey Ross
I'm a little confused as to the requirements that an aircraft must meet
to launch into known icing conditions. To further add to my confusion,
the regulatory requirements (may be just the interpretation of?) has
changed over the years.
My personal situation, I own a '69 Aztec (D model) and 1974...

Freedom to travel... by
Dan D[_2_]
Isn't it nice to be able to drive anywhere you want to, whenever you want to? Isn't this one of the freedoms we have
come to expect here in the USA? Sure, you need to be responsible, have enough gas in the tank, possess a license, and be
physically able. But you can do it without the government...

Yellow tags by

I am still filtering out all the usual paperwork that comes with a previously loved airplane. You know, the usual receipts for 12
new batteries dating back to WWII etc.
Anyway, there are lots of yellow tags stapled in the logs and almost as many in various envelopes.
I was scanning the logs onto...

Archer wheel pants on a Cherokee by
[email protected]
Hey all. I've got a hershey-bar PA-28 that's been without wheel pants since
we bought it. Looks a bit ghetto, and I'd like the speed increase available by
putting some on. Awhile back, I ebayed up a set of archer pants thinking I may be
able to make them work. After looking at it, it seemed...
