Jeeze.. for a new 400k airplane it seems like there is a lot of stuff
crapping out already.. what a freakn' bummer.

Taking the airplane to the Cessna Service Center at Pensacola this week for
the first time. Here's the list:

o Install Garmin software updates just received from Cessna.

o Repair fuel leak at tank hatch screw on top of wing.

o Replace missing rubber step pad on left l. g. strut. (Departed in
flight.)

o Adjust autopilot roll axis to eliminate oscillation in light
turbulence.

o Repair beacon gaskets to eliminate water leak; replace bulb.

o Adjust passenger door latch to allow easier closing from inside.

o Reconfigure/repair transponder to clear "TRANSPONDER FAIL, XPDR
CONFIG - XPNDR1 config error." " Config service req'd." alert and "TRAFFIC
FAIL - Traffic device has failed" alert.

o Diagnose & repair PFD to eliminate "MFD1 KEYSTK - MFD1 joystick in key
is stuck" alert.


The transponder was DOA on startup the morning we left for OSH. No radar
service all the way there and back. Garmin offered no help at all. Finally,
a very helpful Cessna salesman hooked me up with a shop near Chicago, but we
couldn't get in there Thursday morning due to weather.
