Lycoming 0-320 Exhaust studs working loose by
Mike Spera
I have had intermittent problems with 0-320 exhaust studs working loose,
usually with overhauled cylinders. I understand it if I have a stubborn
nut to remove for a gasket change and the stud comes out with it. I
figure that if I reuse that stud/nut again I am asking for it to work
back loose...

Sold out by IFR by
Mike Rapoport
I used to subscribe to IFR until I realized that they offered a much better
rate to new subscribers than to existing ones. After realizing this, my
four year old decided to subscribe :-). Today he recieved a solicitation
from another aviation magazine. Obviously they sold his (and my) name...

High wing to low wing converts...or, visa versa? by
Jack Allison
I find myself in the position of having just under 200 hours in Cessna
172s/152s (99% C-172 time), approximately 9 hours in an Archer, and in
the process of making an offer on an Arrow. So, I'm well on my way from
being a high wing to low wing convert. I'm wondering how many other
folks out there...

Engine Failures per Million Hours by
[email protected]
I was wondering if anyone has ever found any hard data on the number of
engine failures per million flight hours.
I am specifically interested in the 0-300-D, the engine that I fly
now, and the 0-470 which I'm looking at buying....
Anything helps...
Thanks,

Finding "Neutral" Position on Piper Elevator/Trim Tab by
[email protected]
I have a '79 Piper Warrior with a floor-mounted flap lever/trim wheel
and cover. The trim wheel has a metal needle pointing to a sticker on
the cover to show "neutral". The only reason this matters is that
setting the trim wheel/tab to neutral is part of the pre-flight
checklist.

Hi all,
I'm want to replace the windows in my airplane and want to make my own.
I've got an oven, piece of plexiglas and the old window.
Are there any good websites with information on how to do this without

Aviation applications for the Droid phone by
Bob
I am thinking about a Droid phone update. Are there any aviation
applications available for it? I suppose I could access airnav.com or
aeroplanner, but there might be something already customized. You
people that have one, comments?

Landing Lights at NAPA by
Jay Honeck
In discussing our relatively new Skycraft landing lights (the
cut-into-the-leading-edge-of-the-wings type) here the other day, I noted
that I had just burned out a GE 4509 after around 35 hours. This surprised
me, since, being out in the wing, I expected there to be less
filament-killing...

Hi,
We just had our annual done on our 172E, and there were cracks found in
the forward horizontal stabilizer spar. The remedy is to apply Cessna
Service Bulletin SEB94-8.
Does anyone know where I can obtain a copy of this bulletin online?
I'm trying to get an idea of the cost of this...

337 to install a transponder? by
Jay Honeck
I just purchased a Garmin GTX-327 off of Ebay (installed for one day, before
the owner decided he REALLY wanted the Mode S GTX-330!), and am lining up
installation. I was surprised to hear that a 337 form had to be filed for
this installation.
It's not a big deal for the avionics shop to do, but...

Sticking Lycoming O-360 valve again? by

Hey all. Question about my Cherokee's O-360. When we first got it about 3.5
years ago, it was very low hours SOH, but almost 10 years. We had some sticking
valves and bad oil consumption, so sent the jugs out to have the IRAN. At that time,
in addition to the the IRAN, a few rusted valve...
