Yes, sold. Sorry.

He's saying that he was preoccupied with the plane in front of them and he didn't see anything coming. It was too fast. Surprisingly few swear words.

Another vote for Handbrake!

My W&B calculator says you can do it with 39 gallons of fuel to boot. 160hp is a powerful option in a 140!

I was a member of a club a bunch of years ago. I got out when things started getting fishy with the management. Collecting $ every month towards rebuilds, then selling planes that reached TBO and keeping the funds... among other things. :nono: Do your homework before you join.

When you send in the registration form, the pink copy is a temp registration certificate. So, you should be legal to fly as soon as you fill out that form and send it in. AFAIK, airworthy certs don't expire, even if the registration does, they can be revoked though.

NANU Technology?

I could help you out with French, but my Spanish comprehension has gone away since I moved back to the States.

Just got my final registration papers in the mail yesterday. :D Not too long after all.

Sorry, I'm half English by birth, so, if you don't mind, call it the Blooming Air Switch please. Thanks! :D

Been waiting for 2 months now for my registration to be processed. Then I get a letter saying I have to print my name under my signature... Aie! Hope I'm not in for another few months!

Just like any upgrade.... BACKUP FIRST! Backing up takes a helluva long time though. :mad:

Own this Piper Cherokee 140-180: Going to change out the LORAN for a King 90b GPS sometime this winter.
