    Finally got my IPC in the book.

    I have a good friend who does them for me, I am a very fortunate. But he wears me out during. We did the first flight on 12-27-23 1.8 hours and 3 approaches a hold and maneuvers. Then 1.5 on the ground. That wasn’t enough and because of his working schedule and the weather we didn’t get it...

    Cessna 182 window question.

    What is the deal with the co pilot side window opening? It looks to me that the P models didn't open but the Q models do? Was that optional on earlier models or not available until the Q? TIA

    Spark plug anti seize question.

    Is the black liquid anti seize the best lube to use on plugs? Is there anything else that can be used to offer a little more lube. Every time I remove plugs I think they could use a little more lube. They are very dry and even a little rusty I think when I take them out. I used the black...

    New to me American flag has been hung in my hanger with a interesting history.

    My mechanic gave me this flag to hang. He said it came from the Great American Ball Park that the Cincinnati Reds baseball team play in. Had to borrow that lift to put it up. Thought I'd share it.

    Please look at these wheels.

    These wheels have all the same exact numbers on them that I can see, front and back. Yet they are not the exact same. Why? TIA

    Is this what they mean when they say they can see you on the "fish finder"?

    I guess they put it on top of the glare shield? Just kidding. I found it listed in the aviation section. https://cleveland.craigslist.org/avo/d/rocky-river-marinetek-fish-finder/7632743175.html And then since I have your attention maybe I should buy this generator and let everyone plug into in...

    What happened to the online Cessna parts manual?

    I had the parts manual bookmarked in my computer for years and now it is dead, the link. I am looking for the 1980 172 parts manual, not the repair/maintenance manual, I need the parts manual.
