I am upgrading my Lightspeed Zulu 2's to the 3's and in the process having my GA plugs converted to LEMO's. My plane has both GA and LEMO options, and I like the idea of not having to worry about carrying extra batteries. Any reason I shouldn't do this? Audio quality, etc.?

Thought I would share some pics to people who would appreciate this. Just got completed yesterday. new O470-R in a 66 182J. Went from having no clue I needed a new engine to purchase and install in about 5 weeks due to Continental having it in stock.....and that was with the holidays...

How do you guys/gals treat an area with a Convective Outlook? Do you avoid altogether? Only enter if there are nearby airports to land at if need be? Seems like most Convective Outlooks never turn into actual convective activity. Till now I have been ultra conservative and avoided altogether...

short sight seeing flight today and took these pictures. I am based about 25nm from here. This is the ski area in Idaho that went up for auction on Facebook and was posted about here on PoA. As you can see, we are having an epic winter thus far.....great for skiing not so much for flying.

Today while flying vfr into SLC Class B, approach assigned a route and advised me to remain at or above 6,000 ft. TPA is 5,200 ft. The route took me pretty much right into the left downwind entry to the rwy I was landing on at which point I was handed off to the tower. Still being at 6,000 ft...

The gentleman I purchased my 182 from has a 195 Project in the back of the hangar he would like to sell. Prop and engine are 95% done. Everything else will be pretty much a ground up restoration, and could be purchased very reasonably. Plane is located in SE, Idaho. PM me if interested

While practicing some maneuvers in the practice area a few days ago, I noticed the CHT for #2 fluctuating from normal to very low temps while EGT's remained normal. The pictures were taken about 10 minutes apart. Field elevation is 4500. Prior to takeoff, I lean till engine gets rough and...

Tach cable in the 182 broke this weekend and am going to replace it with a digital. Any recommendations on a brand? Thx

Last weekend I flew a 182 that had a placard on the transponder that said "not for use in class A, B, or C airspace"? I climbed to 10,000 feet and contacted a local radar facility and requested a transponder check, and my location and altitude was verified. Anyone have any idea why the placard...

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, I will be purchasing a 182J in the next 2-4 weeks. The annual/pre-buy will be done the end of next week which will put the plane on a schedule to have its annual done every August. This is right in the middle of when I will be flying it most. Ideally, I...

I will be purchasing a 182 in the next 2-3 months that will be used 50% personal and 50% for business for a company I own (S corporation). Would it be best to put the title/registration in the business's name OR my name since I will obviously be writing off what I can when it is being used for...

I looked at a 182 today that is equipped with G600. The owner told me it costs about $2,500 a yr to "calibrate" this system and made it sound like this "calibration" was specific to G600 and independent of the 24 month IFR cert. What was he talking about? database currency? I am new to glass...

I am a 100hr pilot who received my PPL-ASEL certificate 3 months ago. Upon contacting approach while flying a rental 172 into Boise class C last week I was given a squawk code and asked to ident. Unbeknownst to me at the time, the ident button on the transponder was missing. THere was the...

I am a student pilot hoping to have my PPL by years end looking for a good handheld transceiver. What is a good brand that I can plan on having for awhile, and what options/features should I be looking for? Thanks
