You sure hit a topic that has been on my mind the past few days. I should know the answer but I have not prepared myself. I ALWAYS have a plan "B". This time I do not. Does anyone know of a satellite weather service out there comparable to XM Aviation weather - I have come to use it alot p...

I have a legally installed wing leveler coupled to my Garmin and I love it. I believe it is a "Britain"

George,

I try to refrain from being a total Bu_t head but..... when I find an opening I have to take it --- Could you tell me (us) what color socks you were wearing that day? Also what was the length of your hair? Just curious

Wishing you and yours a festive and safe 2009

Bruce, That was an awesom eresponse, completer with a link to the paper work. As I type the form is printing. Your post has relieved a lot of angst. The DR. I have has been around town for many years and has a great reputation. Its the thought of someone carving on my eyeball with a scalpel. After a...

Open question to 170 group -- just diagnosed with mild cataract conditon, stronger in one eye than the other - with the modern advancements in medicine this procedure is a relatively quick in and out ( about 1/2hr) with rapid return to "normal" vision. The procedure is a removal of cornea ...

Here is the full length photo - camping was awesome - toilet facitlites were plentiful and there are a permanent men's and women's showers near the FBO. A visit to the nearby town of McMinville is pleasant - wine, hazelnuts, cranberries of all varieties are available

The heat and the the price on Av fuel cut the attendance down somewhat from that of last year but still a lot of fine aircraft to look at and super nice peop...

I thougth I would run this one up the flagpole - I would like input on where you have installed your f/e. I have a 1955 170B with the original seats since covered a couple of times but look as I may I have not discovered a convenient location for a f/e that is NOT in the way of normal ops and would ...

Someone please explain this to me? It appears its much harder to start a 170 than a commercial twin engine jet

Well these posts came at a good time. I was going to be getting one of these for my long xcountry trip coming up (4,000+ miles) but I also share concerns about infiltration either by accident or wilful attemps. Seems to me when in the design stage that this would have been an obvious feature to prog...

I happen to be one of those using the "little dot" It has not changed color and they are "good" for 90 days after opening the sealed wrapper. I cannot comment one way or another on the accuracy as I have never had a case of excessive CO at least no symptoms. One of the very first...

Geez - your tach (at least the face) looks indentical to the one I just removed from my 1955 B model. Look as we may we did not find a model number.
