Question for A&Ps out there ... I was looking at a plane the other day which had been recently upgraded to a pair or Garmin Gi275s (for AI and DG). Heading for these displays was driven by a remote-mounted GMU11 magnetometer. Here's what surprised me ... The magnetometer was mounted to the...

Anyone seen this problem?... I have a pair of GI275 s in the middle of my 6 pack, and a GNX375 in my avionics stack. Everything seemed to work fine before. Then the plane was in the shop for a couple months for annual. And now, the GI275 heading is reversed (i.e. if I fly 360 heading, it...

In some rental place or somewhere else I saw some 3D printed mounts for the controller box for the Lightspeed Zulu headsets. Has anyone come across that idea? It would be neat to find the CAD/.stl files to try to reproduce some of those. Anyone know if they can be found somewhere?

Airline captains please explain this to me .... I'm not a platinum member with any airline or anything, but I've flown commercial countless times. And on just 2 occasions, something strange (to my mind) has taken place... After boarding everyone, the cabin crew has said something like "sorry...

Anyone sold or purchased a plane via this auction company? Or even heard of it? https://www.promarketconnections.com/ https://www.pmcauctions.com/ I was contacted by them with an offer that they would help me sell my plane, that they had interested buyers lined up with cash to spend, and they...

Anyone know how insurance underwriters view “make and model” when it comes to Cessna 172s? For example, if I have a 172N, and the open pilot clause in my insurance policy provides coverage for pilots who meet this stipulation: - “25 hours shall have been in this make and model aircraft” … Does...

Looking to learn how to do my own oil change ... i know what oil filter I need, but is there a crush washer or gasket or something that will need to be replaced under the oil drain plug before reinstalling? Thanks.

Does anyone know of a place that offers "accelerated" multi-engine (land) rating, which is setup to accept Post 9/11 GI Bill funding? (by accelerated I mean a place you fly daily and knock it out over the course of a week or two, rather than "enrolling for an academic semester") Thanks. (extra...

Anyone aware of a type club for the Cherokee 6 and/or PA32 series?

As far as website/app flight tracking, so far I've only played around with Flight Aware. Lately I've been annoyed by it. Maybe part of it is operator incompetence. I played around a bit (once) with Flight Radar 24, and couldn't figure it out any better. So... Do folks have recommendations for...

The engine on my Cherokee 6 (PA-32-260) seems to be, according to logbooks, an O-540-E4B5. But when I search the web for Lycoming maintenance manuals, publications pop up for a variety of other engines, but not this particular one. Anyone have helpful guidance here? Even if it's out of print...

Someone gave me this generator, with no manual. And I have a question about it. I'm to lazy to explore the internet for an answer, other than looking for an owner's manual, which what I could find wasn't much help. See attached photo. See the L14-20 plug? It's labeled 120/240V, and 20 amps...

Engine oil mixing question, I run Phillips XC 20w50 in my engine (IO-540). I have a few Aeroshell 15w50 qts left from elsewhere. Is there any issue with using the occasional Aeroshell quart to top of the oil level? Or even running half and half?

Anyone have experience with this broker? If so, opinions? Would you deal with them again?

Looks like there are numerous FBO options at San Antonio. Anyone have a personal recommendation?

Anyone have a recommendation on a maintenance shop to do the 500hr inspection on a Bendix D3000 dual mag? And what it cost, if you've had it done recently? Thanks.
