So my 92zk prop was due for 500 hour AD, and got a quote for 1.8k. Sent in, the prop shop told me the bearings are corroded, so have to replace that. Then when I got my invoice, it turned into an overhaul with the bearing replaced. So suppose to 1.8k +0.4k(bearings) now its...

What about San Jose (KRHV)

So question, part 43 appendix A, c(preventive) and (21) replacing any hose connection except hydraulic connections. wonder what pitot static use for the connection. Is that called tubing? What’s difference between hose and tubing.

Thx for the info

I thought you can just go aircraft spruce and buy them, no?

Yeah I see that pitot static might be a issue, even it’s just screw on and off. You would assume it’s critical and safety wired, but it’s not.

Interestingly, the GMU 11 cost same for experimental and certified $275 on aircraft spruce.

Thanks for the info, so just have a mechanic watch me do the swap under 30 seconds and sign off.

Got it, thanks. Yeah I don’t know why Garmin designed G5 to be front mounted and attach to the panel with single screw. I guess they figured that out and changed the design in GI275 ( mount from behind the panel)

G5 has installation manual online: http://static.garmin.com/pumac/190-01112-10_09.pdf 4.1.4 Pneumatic Connections Use appropriate tubing and fittings to connect the pitot and static lines to the unit. Avoid sharp bends in the tubing and route hoses clear of aircraft control cables Refer to 14...

From what I heard, no experimental equipment in certified aircraft is definitely wrong. I assume you can just hook the pitot/static with hand.

Just trying to put out more facts here. So from . (I know it's youtube). That as owners, you can do maintenance but not any alteration (even minor ones). So you can change the light bulbs but not change them to LED ones that requires STC(alteration). You can change ones that's PMA...

What about a GPS? GTN650 or 430W? Part 43, apdx A: owner can do. (31) Removing and replacing self-contained, front instrument panel-mounted navigation and communication devices that employ tray-mounted connectors that connect the unit when the unit is installed into the instrument panel...

Certified aircraft, old G5 is installed using STC. Magically broke somehow. Can I buy a G5 and swap (single screw, pitot/static, and power?) as an owner without A&P? If I can do that, can I swap with a non-certified version of G5? (Experimental?)

Yeah, I was doubting if 3d printed parts is able to withhold the force cutting into metal, apparently it does. Only time will tell how long it will last, but I don't see any problem after first use. It's pretty much same as the expensive ones ($ 70-80+). Tighten the bolt, spin couple times...

It does look like metal ha. Let me have a video show what I am talking about. Youtube link attached

Just opened my oil filter from O360-A1D yesterday. And saw reflections. Like a lot of reflections.. Kind of freaked me out ( thought my engine need an overhaul...). I have a microscope so I took out the shinny parts with tweezer and have them on a clean piece of tissue. And even its shinny and...

Seems pretty easy to 3d print one. Do you know the voltage of the battery? Send me more info, I can print one for you for free. I am also good at electronic stuff, so maybe use some lipos and a voltage regulator.

It is part of the logbook. Sorry I notice sometimes I like to hide information for others because I thought I only need the information I need from other people. Just asked my previous CFI. He said the IFR training can be used for commercial IFR hours. Each procedure is logged (ILS, RNV VOR)...

I am sorry, but it seems like all you said is, refer to the regs ( I guess that's real clear answers ). Other than the first one. And that's what I used into example to try to understand if what you said is being correctly understand by me.
