What about in the case of original Piper sun visors? My plane never came with them and I see that there are some for sale from salvaged aircraft. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

As a new Piper Cherokee owner, there are things I want to add to or modify on my plane, but don't necessarily want to purchase new at full price. I've read some things that advise to not go purchasing from Ebay, etc and then asking the A&P to attempt to install it. Right now, I am specifically...

Ok, so if it's not a standard pressure day, does it affect how this chart is used? If I calculate that the given density altitude is 1000ft ft that day, could I just use the 1000ft mark to get the climb rate on this chart?

Thanks for the replies, all.

Up to this point, I've been training in a Cherokee 140 with performance charts listed as "Density Altitude vs. X". I have moved up to a Cherokee 180, and am finding that in its POH, all the performance charts are listed as "Standard Altitude vs. X". Trying to calculate my climb performance. Is...

Call me pessimistic, but I think at least a little bit of the allure of aviation is dying away with the younger generation because it involves a lot of hard work and study, and in the US, that's just not valued anymore. On the other hand, I also don't think GA will very really die away because...

Congratulations, man! But, uuuh, with regards to this... That ought to be corrected ASAP. I wouldn't be flying an airplane that I knew had that sort of a problem.

How about that! I'm in the process of purchasing 28-2914!
