Beat me to it :ihih:

Is there a place where all these titles are listed? I looked in the help section, found some useful info, but couldn’t find titles. Maybe I’m over looking them or they’re in another section :dunno:

Oops. I must have remembered wrong. Thanks.

Hi, Ryan. Thanks for replying. I guess I’m confused. My post count increases with every post, obviously. But I got out of “pre-takeoff checklist” years ago. Yet, today when I logged in, it’s saying I’m pre-takeoff checklist :dunno: (edited to change emoji… it’s amazing what you discover when...

I can’t remember. Certainly wasn’t en-route. Maybe line up and wait?

I post here and there occasionally. After I made my latest post about airventure, I noticed I was demoted to “pre-takeoff checklist.” Which aviation god did I anger? :eek:

How many of you all bring a set of cutting boards to place under your tires to keep from sinking into the mud? Are they worth it? I’ve heard some don’t. Instead, at the end of the week, they pull the plane out of the rut. Once it’s on fresher ground, they load up their camping gear and depart)...

Bummer. I was hoping for better news. Though, asking your A&P, as impeccable as his ethics may be, does raise some questions about foxes and hen houses :D bell206 might be on to something ;)

I hope people aren’t going 100 hours between changes :eek:

The replacement of exhaust springs and lifters applies to SN's prior to L-6182-76 but it appears the inspection of the filter and sump screen (and LW16702 additive) apply to all SN's. But keep me posted after you speak with your A&P. My reading comprehension isn't what it used to be :oops:

It also requires inspection of the sump screen and cutting open and inspecting the filter. It is a recurring AD, unfortunately.

Unfortunately, it’s an extra $20k and those extra 20 ponies aren’t worth it. If it were $5k, I might consider it…

Agreed. I only became aware after my A&P asked “oh, you just changed your oil? Cool! Who signed off on the AD?” never thought of that. I just thought it was PM. Which as the owner/pilot, I can do. What I don’t have the authority to do as the owner/pilot is sign off an AD :(

AD 80-04-03 R2

That. (Dual Mag). And since the H2AD had such a short run, I understand parts are getting harder to find (more than the usual supply chain crisis). Also, the D2J doesn't have a 50 hour AD that basically prevents me from changing my own oil. Bummer I can't sign off on that AD ... The...

Yep. Attributable only to the fact that we have the exact combination of bravery and stupidity to pull it off ;)

Yes. One partner had the 360 in his airplane and it was hard to start (cold or hot) and the marginal speed upgrade wasn’t worth the extra fuel…

I understand the upgrade to a D2J from the H2AD is a popular conversion, though sadly I only found two threads on it and they're both 10+ years old. I've been mulling over the "DeltaHawk" STC by Penn Yan. I don't like using that term, since apparently there's a new diesel engine out there by...

Not a bad guess, but it's a Piper Matrix. Good tip on the 440 vs 650. The search is on behalf of my dad. I have a 1979 Skyhawk that I've upgraded to dual G5s and GNX-375. I've told him that his plane needs to have better avionics than my Skyhawk. Not sure if that rule is in the FARs or the...

Zero experience with anything Avidyne. In the market for a plane and the trend for my model in my price range seems to be the Avidyne Entegra. Is this an orphaned system? How capable is it? How compatible is it with, say, a Garmin 650? Am I better off budgeting for having it replaced with...
