Do you own or are you planning to buy or build an aircraft that fits into the Light Sport Aircraft rules? The airplane can be an older "factory" certified airplane such as the Cub or Ercoupe, a new "factory" S-LSA or an experimental that does or will comply with the LSA...

I have been toying around with the idea of buying a Colt or a Tri-Pacer (having just foolishly sold my Ercoupe) and ran across an ad for a Colt with a child seat STC. I did a google search, a deja/google group search (on rec.aviation) and looked at the Short wing Piper web site and found nothing...

Flyers, This is just a quick flying story some might be interested it. My plane ('71 Cardinal RG) just came out of annual with a newly over-hauled prop and hub. The mechanic and I test flew the plane around the pattern.

http://w3n-a.blogspot.com/2008/12/secondary-stall.html This stall is called a secondary stall since it may occur after a recovery from a preceding stall. It is caused by attempting to hasten the completion of a stall recovery before the airplane has regained sufficient flying speed. When this...

I recently saw an article in KitPlanes or maybe Sport Pilot about how to repair / rebuild a plastic instrument panel overlay. Whichever mag I saw it in, I've managed to throw away. Anyone know what issue this was? Could you email me a copy? Thanks for the help. Jeff

Hello everyone. It's getting a little chilly around here now; I have seen the "ventubes" that are being sold for $75 apiece. Has anyone simply taped over the inlet in the wing root? I was thinking of giving this a try, seeing that there is no real need for cold air ventilation at this time...

Greetings.... Despite a search to find the answer I'm seeking, I've found nothing. I hope some of those who've bolding built and flown can give me a heads up on what I'm missing. To be as concise as possible, yet not mislead anyone, here goes as to my problem. I'm helping a friend put his Icom...

My warrior is fitted with shoulder strap seat belts anchored to the upper side of the plane, just above the second window. From the looks of them they were original equipment. Now - I need to remove the retracting mechanism so I can have new belts attached. After removal of the plastic cover plate...

So, the annual is done, and I came out easy (again!) -- just two tires and a brake hose. (Knock on wood. They're still installing the landing lights, so I s'pose they could still find something else...) Although I'm replacing both tires, really only the right tire was bad. It had five bald...

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? PatW (a new pilot and owner)

As stated earlier we are looking to replace our KX-170B (our 2nd NAV/COM). As I was doing some research I stumbled across the TKM MX-170 http://www.avionix.com/rev-tkm.html On the surface this looks like a pretty good deal (1.5 AMU's new). I talked to a gentleman at Pacific Coast Avionics and he...

Alright, here is a good one for you. Stene in Montana manufactures and sells very nice fiberglas tips for elevators, stabilizers, wings, and rudders, mostly for Pipers and Cessnas. You can find these parts advertised in TAP and on the internet. I have inspected, painted, and installed several...

A while back I asked for information about installing a landing light blinker system in an Archer. Now that the job is done I'll share my experiences with the Great Planetary Bit-Bucket. First off, I'm very pleased with the system. I want Jim Weir to know his generosity was not in vain! ...

Is it possible to purchase a one-time update to the 430 database using the Skybound adapter? I don't fly enough IFR to require a current database year round and I'd like to just update it during certain times during the year. When I check their webpage all I can find is a one time mail in option...

I was looking at this unit on the web and it looks great. If anyone has had any hands on with this it would be interesting to hear first impressions or even second or third. R. Hubbell

The folks here who are running autogas.. I have a question for you. Preface: When I was tasked by my volunteer fire department 10 years ago to stamp out fuel credit card abuse and fraud, I secured the services of a certain brand's fleet card system. The sales vendor who set up our account told me...

Okay, so I've been "volunteered" to be on the board of directors of the biggest fly-in event in Iowa City's history, the Eastern Iowa Big Kids Toy Show, scheduled for May 20 - 21, 2006. See us at www.BigKidToyShow.com (Yes, they made me wear a -- *sob* -- TIE for the photos... It was awful! ...
