    Intake Leak

    I have been chasing a power loss issue for a little while in one of the engines on my Seneca II. Finally got around to pressure checking the intake system. There were a few tiny leaks getting through where the clamps hold the intake hoses on. Those were easy enough to fix by tightening the...

    Ability to search lawsuits?

    Does anyone here have the ability to search for active or past lawsuits? I'm trying to figure out whatever happened to a lawsuit resulting from an airplane accident, and am not having much luck. Just curious to see whatever happened.

    Best Label Maker

    Interested in purchasing a new label make for a couple of reasons, but one of those is to replace some of the labels on my breaker panel. Every one of them that I look at seems to be 50/50 on what people think of them. Does the flying community here have one that they like the best?

    Critical Altitude and Density Altitude (with Turbo)

    I am sure this is supposed to be a relatively simple topic to understand, but I admit that I do not know this answer. Is the critical altitude of an aircraft equipped with turbocharged engines affected by density altitude? i.e., if density altitude is high at the departure airport, will the...

    Inflatable Door Seals?

    Are you able to still purchase these things? Looking around the internet and don't see anything readily available. I have one on the front door of my Seneca and love it. Don't know why they didn't add it to the rear door(s) as well. Thought I'd look into it, but am having a little trouble...

    PA34 Janitrol Heater Trouble

    I seem to be able to reliably get my B3040 heater to function on the ground, but once I climb into the air, the hot air stops coming. Anyone else have an issue and give me a place I might start? I can verify power is going to the unit and that the blower works (on the ground and in the air). As...

    French Lick, IN Resort

    The wife and I had the opportunity to visit this very nice resort a couple weeks back. If you're in the area, I highly recommend checking it out. Two beautiful resorts, three golf courses, plenty of good food, spas, and they will come pick you up at the airport in a shuttle bus for free! They...

    My EI CGR-30P installation log, Part Deux!! (The Twin)

    Well, about 2 months ago I went and lost my mind. My wife and I decided that we were ready to sell our trusty Lance and go with its red-headed, twin engined, step-brother the Seneca II. After looking at the same inventory, over and over again, for a couple of months, we finally decided on a...

    Aircraft Records Online

    I know that I can order a paper version or CD-ROM version of the files the FAA has on record for a particular aircraft (that I'm interested in buying), but is there any way to download the information same-day? Guess I thought the FAA would be in the 21st century with this, but maybe not...?
