TBO Increase? by
Jay Honeck[_2_]
I was just reading Flying magazine's article on the Diamond DA20 XLS (or
whatever they're calling their new, spiffed-up model), and noted that the
TBO on the IO-360 was listed as 2200 hours.
Is that accurate? I thought all Lycosaurs of the 360 vintage had 2000 hour
TBOs...

Piper single axis autocontrol question redux. by
Mike Noel
Just to finish this thread, the fix for the bridle cable wraps slipping
around the aileron servo capstan was relatively simple. There is a recessed
set screw in the front face of the capstan holding the bridle cable locking
pin. The mechanic backed out the set screw with a .050 allen wrench,...

Compass trouble by
Road Dog
I took my Piper Warrior in for its annual and the mechanic
said that the compass card was missing and that he'd have
to swing the plane to generate a new one.
After swinging it, he claimed that he couldn't get the
E-W deviation within the minimum. So he suggested we
try "mu" shield (or something)...

PA28-180 Wing Jack recomendations by
Mike Noel
Thinking about buying a wing jack for my Archer. I see a couple of designs
sold by Spruce, one a simple hydraulic jack with an adapter for cradling the
bottom of the main gear strut, another designed to catch the coned lift
point under the wing. Is there a reason to prefer one style over the...

ZAON XRX Problem by
Steve - KDMW
Anyone seen this?...
I have a new XRX that I've flown with about 10 times now. Today, when
I turned
it on, all I got on the display was a light gray solid square. It
never got as
far as the ZAON splash screen. The audio went through a sequence of
two beeps
and "test". Beep beep "test", beep beep...

Backup attitude indicator on older Cirrus by
[email protected][_1_]
Has anyone seen an installation of a backup attitude indicator in an
older Cirrus without the PFD? Every panel I've seen has the same
layout, and there doesn't appear to be any extra space. It looks like
an HSI could be installed and the space for the CDI/Glideslope could
be used for an attitude...

AI sometimes slow to come up to speed by
Peter R.[_2_]
My attitude indicator was last replaced back in November 2006 with a
Mid-Continent overhauled unit. Since then I have flown on average
twice every single week of flights an hour or less in duration. Thus,
there are about 180 hours or so on this air-driven AI but it is out of
warranty.
