Saw this helo flying overhead today. Any idea what the camo scheme is? Granted, I've not seen a billion military helicopters, but I've seen enough to think this one is unusual. Tis an Army Lakota.

For the first time in nearly two years. 1.2 on the clock and probably another hour or two in the air before I feel comfortable again. It was good to get back but frustrating to experience the degradation of skills. Jeff Goldblum once said that life finds a way.. the corollary being that life...

Okay... so here's the idea. Plenty of people here have lots of criticisms about damn near everything. So this thread is a place for people to describe how they'd change current technology and incorporate it into their existing aircraft. Basically, if you were the owner of an experimental...

So... I didn't really fly and learn this lesson the hard way, seeing as I tanker fuel all over the place... but I was going through the NTSB accident database today to see what I should be more cognizant of when flying my plane and I discovered a shocking number of fuel exhaustion incidents due...

Okay so now that I've officially cancelled my trip to Sedona this weekend due to low ceilings predicted.... I was thinking, if someone were to file IFR, reasonably knew what they were doing without having their ticket punched, and flew IFR to punch through a layer and cancelled on top, how...

Alright party people. I have a dryer vent that goes from the laundry room UNDER the kitchen and out through the base of the building and basically at yard level. Problem being that a) I broke part of it and need to replace it and b) I want to replace it with something better. Better would be in...

Quote from my girlfriend literally 30 seconds ago... "Enter departure airport code... what's the airport code for LAX?"

Thinking about taking my dog with me and the girlfriend when we go to Sedona next week... I've seen a bunch of positive to neutral stories about people taking their dogs with them... anyone have dogs that absolutely HATE the airplane? She does fine in the car.

What's the best time of year to go to Sedona? I think I have a couple weeks off coming up shortly. Is the end of April a smart time to be flying out there from SoCal?

Topic says it all. If it ain't one thing, it is another. How much am I going to get screwed on this?

I cut the breaker from the main to the garbage disposal. I'm still getting a tiny amount of voltage. .339 volts. I'm assuming that it ain't enough to overcome the resistance of my skin... But most of what I know about electricity is that more than 0 shouldn't exist when the power is off...

Received this email today. No mention on pricing yet. : "Hey everyone, Andrew here… Things are really moving forward at a wonderful pace! On Feb 28th, we submitted the last of our install kit STC documents for the 172F through 172R and 177. The next day, we had a facility visit /...

Will work on any PA28 with 2 side windows. The cover is a lightly faded red. I've attached a photo from the manufacturer's website that shows the style, but I'm stupid and failed to take a photo with the cover on the plane. I do have a photo with the cover crumpled in a pile on the wing, if...

Lightspeed Thirty 3G ANR Headset. $120 bucks shipped to the US. Ear seals and top head pad thingy in good shape. The ANR doohicky works. The outside of the headset is a tiny bit weathered. If you're planning on buying another Lightspeed headset, you can buy these, then use them to trade up for...

So......... here we are again. Took the ol' plane up to KSBP for a wash/wax/buff. The painted parts look great. Clearcoat that still exists looks great. The clear that was peeling got knocked down quite a bit, so that's good. Battery seems to be working. So that's fixed. The one remaining...

Anyone have a good (decent quality, decent price) aircraft detailer in the greater southern California region? I've been quoted anywhere from $500 to $2000 for wash and machine wax/buff on my little Cherokee.

Gorgeous day. Cool. Zero weather. Plane battery is dead. It is only a year old. Get it started. Electronics blinking off at random. Reset master... Everything comes on... Super low volume. Com1's squelch won't turn on so it is just non stop static. I've spent too much money in the past six...

Looks like N222EN according to Flight Radar 24. Sounds like a forced landing that ended in the Fairplex in Pomona. Two people are out of the plane and walking around... unknown total number aboard or injuries. Probably was trying for Brackett...

My 140 has a fixed pitch prop. There's no entry in the prop logbook from the last annual. I'm being told by one person that I absolutely positively have to have a proper annual sticker for the prop, and the mechanic who did the annual is saying that there's no requirement that there be a...
