When doing steep turns, I noticed that there is a little resistance to pitch changes on the yoke. It seems it binds a little in the bearing through the panel. Does anyone have a suggestion for the type of lubricant I could use on this? Do they make anything for this purpose?

Hello all. I know it's been awhile since I updated, but progress has been slow. Here's where we're at: Last weekend: - Pulled valve covers, rockers, pushrods, exhaust. - Pushed on valves and were unable to feel any sticking like there was the last time we definately had sticking valves. Decided...

We have a '67 KCAB that has a weird vibration from time to time. You can feel it in the stick and seat. It is the worst around 2200-2400 rpm but only in the air. On the ground it isn't noticeable. Oil analysis is fine and the engine seems smooth. We've installed new motor mounts and everything...

Found this on JA Air Center's website the other day: http://shorterlink.com/?R7L145 This solves a problem we(my brother and I) have encountered in our 67 Skyhawk. We were thinking about fabricating some type of panel mount for our Garmin GPSMap 296 but just couldn't come up with a good...

Our Mooney has a 500 hour recurring AD for inspecting the Impulse Coupler. While they have it off they will inspect the points and condensers and replace worn ones. Our left mag was out of time by 5 degrees so they had to remove the magneto anyway. Jon Kraus PP-ASEL-IA '79 Mooney 201 Jim Burns...

I did two approaches today, each in separate videos. First one is an ILS approach into HKS Jackson Hawkins airport in VMC conditions. Purpose of this approach was to "warm up" for my next approach which was a no gyro approach into KJAN Jackson MS. Both videos contain ATC communications as well...

I recently bought a Garmin 296 and found I can not upload route or data from the 296 to Flitestar. The Garmin 295 worked flawlessly. I have the serial cable and the USB cable. Neither one will allow this transfer. Does anyone have any better experience? If not beware...I wouldn't...

Hi All, I have been lurking here for some time now and enjoy some of the very interesting threads that take place. Jay always seems to come up with something interesting. Now I have a question and I hope some of you experienced people don't mind wading in. I own a Piper ArcherII PA28-181. In all...

Hi all, I'd like to hear from anyone who has used the EasyPulse 5 while flying, and can confirm whether it works at 12K-18K altitudes. Trying to put together a good but low-buck oxygen system. -Dan

The interior is finished. The work was done at Southern Avionics' new shop at Mobile Downtown Airport. http://tinyurl.com/gj5kt It took 3-1/2 weeks and, according to their manager, went 90% over their labor estimate. He is somewhat in shock about how long it took--it was their first small...

I am moving to Madison, WI later this year and have heard thru the grapevine and on the internet that new hangars are being built at the Middleton, WI airport (Morey Field, C29). Is this true? Are any available? The airport folks referred me to the city of Middleton, but my calls have not been...

Why would a cold engine drip oil out of the breather? If you're bored or have any answers... read on. Lycoming IO-540 C4B5 Like some of the other owners in the group, we've had a mystery oil leak on one of our engines. Nothing severe, not enough to show up as "missing" on the dip stick. ...

Yesterday's instrument approach workout and it was a mental workout! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RChXbsb-gUc ILS approaches over at HKS Hawkins Jackson MS and VOR Alpha back to Madison. True workout which I only made it on top of the overcast for a blissful 30 seconds and the entire flight...

Does anyone in the group use a 12v auxiliary heater or heated blanket for added cabin or passenger heat? I've seen that they come in 150watt/12.5 amp and 300watt/ 30amp versions. We'd have to figure out the current load on our alternators but I'm wondering if we should even consider such an...
