I need one earphone speaker for a peltor 7004 headset. Anyone have any parts? Thanks, Charles

I hate to keep bugging this group with my bizarre Cessna questions but it repeatedly proves to be a good source of information. History; Since I got my '61 C-172 with an O-300D several years ago it always ran smooth but had high oil consumption. Before the second annual several of the cylinders...

Light comes on occasionally...extinguishes itself in 2 or 3 seconds. Mechanic's inspection reveals nothing. Light has come on once or twice in the past and required manual switch reset which worked. Any advice or experience would be appreciated. Peter Shurman Bonanza F33-A C/GRDT Toronto ON

I want to put bigger wheels/tires on my C182L. Pilots can figure out how to unbugger the email address... Tnx MikeM

Hello, i would like to know how to remove the Cessna ARC NAV/COM 300 radio out of my 150? Ware are the screws bolts ect located? So I can take it in to be serviced or replaced it with a slide in replacement. I here it is simple to remove it, is it?

i'm working on a plane and his RT459A transponder is not working properly. I would suspect that it may be cheaper to replace than to fix it. Are all the ARC transponders interchangeable? If not, which ones are/aren't? Are there any replacement transponders that will fit the tray? Thanks Dave

Recently a thread was posted concerning a "smooth insurance policy" What is a "smooth policy" Thanks Paul N1431A

We were hoping that our prop would last until the city was done repaving our horrible taxiways. There was no sense in replacing it while we were literally picking up stone chips on every flight. Well, on our first flight after getting back in our own hangar, with our beautiful new taxiways (after...

As I mentioned in a couple of other threads in RAP recently, the trim jackscrew is very worn in our '74 Archer. The wear seems to be nearly half of the thread depth. In other words, you can move the screw laterally inside the drum about half of the height of a thread. It can be rocked angularly...

Hello, all well I have been lurking and posting trying to find me a low cost time builder well I almost have up the hunt, I went to bed early Thursday night woke up about 4am logged on to eBay and to my surprise a local area person posted a nice little low time 1976 150 called the guy at 5am woke...

I'm looking into buying an 8 E and wonder if anyone who owns/rents one has any insights they could share. Things good or bad. How hard is it to stay current with such a short coupled tail dragger? Instruments that can be added to bring it to IFR? Thanks. Brendan

Well I learned when doing a pre buy be sure you take it to the avionics shop and have all the avionics and instruments checked out before you buy my mistake only thing that was not checked at the pre buy waqs the avionics. I was more concerned about the engine and airframe. I had the...

Hi! I'm thinking about an upgrade of my Century 21 with the GPSS module from Century... Until now I couldn't find anyone who is using it?! I would like to get a real world reference and experience report. Anybody out there?

I have an IO-360-A3B6 900 SFNEW in '97. I used to be able to keep about 7 quarts in it without it blowing out. Now it seems to be blowing oil down to about 5.5 quarts. Since I live in the 100F OATs part of the country, the extra oil really helps cooling. Should I worry about what is causing the...

I have two KX-165A nav/coms in my Cessna 320F and static can be heard through the headsets from both of these radios. The static is not noticeable while flying, but can be heard during taxi. It can also be heard with both engines off and all circuit breakers pulled except the radio circuit...

It's battery replacement time for the 172 and I'm contemplating the installation of a sealed battery to eliminate the destructive corrosion that's plaguing our new battery box. I've done some research courtesy of google and the consensus appears to be that the sealed units function equally well as...

Good day, I understand that the seized aircraft that are used for drug running are often sold or auctioned. I am particularly interested in Cessna 172's. Does anybody have any contact or website details on these aircraft? A collegue of mine who I have lost contact with bought a King Air from this...

Okay, its getting boring so, here is a new twist on an old subject. Beech and Cessna have recently seen HUGE increases in demand for aircraft with the G1000 cockpits. Will this cause them to rethink the introduction of a new piston design to compete with the new players? If so, how long till you...

This is something that has puzzled me for a while... I (a private pilot) work in the pleasure marine industry and have noticed that almost anyone who wants to own a boat does own a boat. Now, some boats are indeed pretty cheap, but a $20,000 boat is fairly common (approx cost of a 150?). Here in...

This is actually a split off from the "Rotating Injectors Among Cylinders" thread. I prefer not to distract that thread any. I must say that I find the evidence presented in support on LOP to be uncompelling. Although it is certainly appealing at the gut level, it is a far cry from scientific...
