RIP Gary. http://www.kathrynsreport.com/2021/09/cessna-177rg-cardinal-rg-n2085q-fatal.html?m=1

I'm not in the Ogden area but my granddaughter is, and I'd like to buy her an intro flight. I'm looking for a recommendation from a local as to which FBO/Flight School at Hinckley provides this service and who has safe, well maintained planes and competent CFIs.

Can two ADS-B IN receivers share the same antenna? I would use something like this at the antenna:

I'm planning a Dynon HDX installation in my Cardinal and am curious as to how the check is done every two years. The static line will go into the Dynon ADAHRS box and the backup PFD (D10A). On my airplane the back side of the static ports are inaccessible without removing a lot of interior...

I bought BAS Harnesses for my front seats and moved my shoulder harnesses to the rear seats, but first sent the seatbelts and shoulder harnesses to Aviation Safety Products (aka aircraftseatbelts.com) for rewebbing. I gave them specific instructions as to how long I wanted each piece, hardware...

Plane is fresh out of the shop with new paint and plexiglass all around, and I'm thinking about applying Ceramic on the gear doors, front of cowling, leading edges, etc., and am also wondering if the Ceramic coating will harm the plexiglass. Please share your experiences! Paint and Plexiglass...

Anyone know a source for these for aircraft? Like this one:

My Thirty 3G headset is in perfect condition except for the harness that connects the volume box to the airplane. The insulation is dried up and cracking, exposing the shielding. Lightspeed may have used the same harness on other models. Below is a wide shot and also a closeup of the...

These are the stock Cessna Control Wheels removed from my 1973 177RG, SN 177RG0349. Reference: 177RG Parts Manual, Figure 69, Index 54A, Part Numbers 1767078--2 (without Mike Switch), and 1767078--3 (with Mike Switch). They are in good shape. The Copilots yoke is (factory) drilled for a PTT, and...

For anyone who has recently done this... My aircraft is being painted and a new N Number is being placed on the plane. I have a question concerning the final step (on the FAA site): "Within ten days after the new number is placed on the aircraft, the owner must present the duplicate AC Form...

I don't know much about IFR flying and will begin training after the aircraft is finished its upgrade. So I'm building it the way I think it might be most useful. The avionics will be as such: Stack PSA 450b Audio Panel IFD540 NAV/COM/GPS GNC255A or SL30 or Matrix1 NAV/COM (all w/GS) KN64 DME...

Recognize this part? Top of knob says "Open" in the center, and Futurecraft, El Monte, CA along the outer edge. Bottom stub has a "Flow" directional arrow. Inlet has Futurecraft and 30295-2 and S/N 331 printed on it. Outlet has AF01(601)-48728 and 4820-885-4667 and U.S. printed on it.

Both items have sold. Thanks all. I have one Leather Wrapped Control Wheel, PN CA60-524080-L for sale, which retails for $698 + $1325 = $2023 (Aircraft Spruce). It contains a PTT switch as well as various other autopilot switches and a trim switch. It also contains a map light and a Davtron...

I'd like to purchase an engine dehumidifier for my Lycoming IO-360 but have not been able to find out much on what's available. Specifically, I like the idea of a closed loop desiccant based unit with a humidity gauge that I can leave connected to the engine any time it is in the hangar, and...

Looking for a rack with connectors for an TKM MX300, RT 328T, RT 308C, RT 328T, RT 328A, RT 528A, RT 328C, RT 528E, RT 328D, or RT 508A (they are all the same).

I looked at the Matrix Avionics Matrix1 radio at the AOPA Gulf Shores Fly In 10/27/2018, and the demo put on by Mark Lipham and Chris Rose (Product Managers) was impressive. It has a built in GPS (like a cell phone, with no external antenna required) allowing the nearest ATC, AWOS, VOR...

I'll be changing my N Number when I paint and understand I must get a new Airworthiness Certificate from the FSDO. Anyone done this? And what is that process like? Will the FSDO go through the airplane, logs, records at OKC, etc. with a fine toothed comb to insure it meets the TCDS (+STCs)?

American Plane Painting came in with a pretty good price on a strip and paint for my Cardinal. Looking for a PIREP. Thanks

Even when serving, qualified, and insured as PIC, my insurance company requires any CFI giving me dual to either meet Open requirements or be Named and if Named, have at least two hours dual in a 177RG from another CFI. I can understand this for familiarization training but as long as I'm...
