    Phoenix Freelance Mechanics?

    I'm looking for an a&p in the Phoenix area, although Google sucks at this type of thing. They can be fresh out of school, no IA needed. Anyone have any recommendations? I really just need a supervisory signature, or if the money is right, I'll let them do it. Thanks in advance.

    Painting a plane....*beating head into the wall*

    I was told to sand the old paint just enough to adhere new paint to it.... I know to NEVER take a grinder to paint. Answer to a few of your questions- no I do not anticipate keeping it. I just wish we could get cost to the same as a car... SMH. Paint is just as expensive, if not more than an...

    Painting a plane....*beating head into the wall*

    Okay, I am sure that this has been answered a million times over.... BUT I am looking at a 182 that has had original paint on it from good 'ol 1967. There is cracking, lifting, aligatoring, fantastic oxidation, and etc. I cannot get a straight answer but I am trying to find out if I should...

    Garmin 400 Series STC????

    Okay so my A&P (cheaper than my IA) wants me to research to see if the GNS 400W series has an STC so that he can install it in my 310? I am already running very reliable radios so Im not terribly worried about it having a COMM in there. Any ideas or pointers? JFWIW-I am removing a ARNAV...

    LED Nav & Strobe Combo Install

    Okay, forgive the ignorance but I am trying to find out the legality of the install on a 182 and what is the best route? The strobes are separate power wires from the NAV/POS lights. Option 1: Run an extra wire to connect strobes to the beacon. Only NAV/POS would be on for taxi. Option 2...

    Cessna Autopilot to G155XL

    Okay, so I love my autopilot (Cessna Navomatic 400) and I love my GPS (Garmin 155XL). Is there a way to couple the two of them without installing Garmin's CDI? Also, I know that I would have to eliminate one NAV on the autopilot, but it is not a bad thing as one is pretty much antiquated on...

    Maintenance Manuals & Avionics

    I just boutght a Cessna 182D and am trying to locate a set of mainteance manual and parts manual for 1961 vintage. If anyone can point me in a direction for PDF versions, it would be fantastic. Also, I have a very well equipped panel with a KX155. The only problem so far is when the radio is...

    Beechcraft Sierra Questions

    Isn't that what we all do or did to get into this fine hobby? I love the 112 as well, but the pocketbook is a player in my decision, as for the Bonanza argument, it would be a tough sell for me due to the increased fuel burn and I am not a MD or JD..... It would cost more to go to medical and...

    Beechcraft Sierra Questions

    I guess after I pony up the big bucks for the plane, I will look at joining. I guess Im too cheap to pony up the $50 while im just "investigating farther"

    It's not that slow..... I hope! I do know one thing, it's one heck of an upgrade from my Cherokee 140. I do have some Sundowner time and love that Beech! :goofy:

    Beechcraft Sierra Questions

    Hey all, Looking at buying a A24R.... Any suggestions on common problems? Also when I evaluate it this weekend, it would be nice to have some basis of "hotspots" to go over. Also, I wanted to ask if anyone has the annual/100 hour checklists for the aircraft? If you can point me in the right...
