I don't know if this is an obvious question or not.. ok.. it's not to me.. BUT.. what causes a significant amount of alternator noise from the strobes and beacons to come thru the headset? The plane in question is a Beech B23. Is this just a grounding issue?

This may sound like an odd question.. does anyone actually use this in their aircraft? I was talking with an owner of a '74 Beech C23 (180hp Lycoming) in Texas.. says he adds it to his fuel regularly and to oil at oil change every 50hrs. I'm very hesitant if not skeptical.. Any thoughts on this?

I’m in the middle of a discussion with other pilots and potential ownership partners about flying beyond TBOH. In particular with a Beech C23 Sundowner with a 180hp Lycoming O-360. There have been suggestions that as long as there’s no unusual oil consumption, no oil leaks and no metal in the...

Looking for a partner (or two) for shared ownership of first plane. Something basic like a Cherokee 180. I had a similar post earlier this year but contact didn’t pan out. Hoping for better luck this time around.

I found a plane I’m seriously interested in located at Princeton Municipal airport in Princeton, Minnesota. Looking for a local A&P to perform a pre-buy inspection.

I found a Grumman AA1A with a STC for 150hp that I'm interested in buying. Wondering what performance improvements I might expect over the original 100hp. I've heard improved climb and a few knots cruise. Any improvement to useful load or service ceiling. I live in Colorado.. my home field...

A year ago I got LASIK vision correction.. the procedure went off without a hitch and corrected my vision to 20/15. Couldn't be happier.. or so I thought. My 3rd class medical came due and not being able to find a doctor that will certify pilots, I went back to my AME back in March. Yesterday...

I'm in search of an A & P to perform a pre-buy inspection. I believe I have found, potentially, my first plane. A 1968 Beech B23 Musketeer. According to the posting, the aircraft is out of Shoreline, Washington. The nearest field is Paine Field - Snohomish in Mulkiteo. I will confirm with...

**PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THIS POST IS BETTER SUITED FOR THE MAINTENANCE BAY** Ok.. so I have finally found two airplanes that fit my mission profile.. within my budget.. of course neither one are local.. Can anyone offer advice on finding a trust worthy local A&P to perform a pre-buy inspection...

I'm looking to join a club based out of KAPA - Centennial, Colorado. If anyone knows of a club that is open to a new member, please forward contact information and details.

I'm looking for a partnership situation with two or three other co-owners. My home airport is KAPA - Centennial, but for the right situation I might consider Front Range or Rocky Mountain Metro. Interested in Cessna 182 or 180hp 172. Might also consider low wing aircraft with minimum of 180hp.

I posted another thread "Looking for my first Plane.. on a budget.." Got quite a few good suggestions.. one of which is shared ownership.. this raised another question.. How do I find a partner (or partners) interested in shared ownership?.. sounds like a simple questions... but is it really??

Like many of us I've finally decided to actively search for my first plane. I learned to fly at sea level but have since moved to Denver, Colorado, field elevation 5885ft. As much as I can afford a good used C-152... it's just not a practical bird for the high density altitude I deal with on hot...
