Hi guys I'm trying to find out which oil should I use for a 1957 Cessna 172 with a Continental O300, I've not being able to find specific info for this online or in the manual, the aircraft manual only talk about SAE50 recommended but it doesn't say much more (or I'm looking the wrong place) A...

The Gen indicator, It looks something like this, but is not exactly that one

Thanks, to be honest this is the first aircraft that I take care off you know more than just renting and flying as a private pilot, and I have learn a few things maintenance related and want to learn more, but I haven't checked about the generator ever before, I actually thought it still had an...

Thanks, yes that's kind of what I thought either alternator or battery not holding enough or something like that, I'm going to get the annual done so I'll get that checked, but I would like to understand what's going on and if it is normal which doesn't seems like.

Hi guys, I'm flying an old 1957 C172 with a continental O300 not too fancy and not many things installed on it, I'm still getting familiar to this aircraft. A couple days ago I flew at dusk for the first time with it, hence I used more current or power draw which ever way it should be called...

In my humble opinion, I understand there are many different approach to this topic, but they all share a lot in common. In the end you are going to be doing what works best for you but it is always wise to build your technique based on the standard and taking into account all the safety and...

Hi everyone Please first forgive my lack of knowledge in this area, and very new at this, not an aircraft owner, just a private pilot and looking forward to own some time soon hopefully. I've been looking at some avionics upgrade stuff on the web and found that all the "same" or similar...

Hey guys, I'm pretty new about this avionic upgrades thing, I do understand that the same kind of avionic seems to be cheaper for experimental AC than certified AC which for me is ridiculous, but I guess that a different topic, how ever, could you guys explain me a bit more how does it work if...

HAHA yes man I mean DA40, I wish it was a 42 but that would be to nice to be true!
