snipped stuff
And our rec.aviation get-together was a rousing success,
I'm hoping snagged the beer before some EAA lineguy did... :)
Random thoughts, because I'm tired - haven't unpacked yet...
I did find the "abandoned" beer cooler - thank you Jay. And please thank

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...

Ownership and passengers by
Roger Long
The FAA is looking for two things when considering the question of whether a
private pilot was carrying a passenger(s) legitimately. One is evidence
that the passenger is incidentally aboard on a flight that was going to take
place anyway. Second is that the pilot and passenger have a shared...

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...

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,

molding plexiglas websites? by
[email protected]
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
killing myself?
Thanks

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?

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.
The plastic...

Oshkosh 2005 pictures up by
Alright, I realize that Oshkosh is so very last week, but with my drive home
to Southern California and going back to work it's taken me until now to
weed through all 1992 pictures I took.
I weeded them down to 539... obviously not all of them are interesting but
at least they're broken up into...

"certified' parts by
Jimmy B.
Yesterday, I attended a FAA safety seminar where the topic was
maintenance issues. I walked away with a few surprising nuggets of
information. These issues have been discussed here in the past and some
of the information posited here disagreed with what the FAA said. So, I
thought it would be...

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...

Cessna Service Bulletin SEB94-8 by
[email protected]
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...
