Pulled the under seat storage box off the mold today. Didn’t turn out great but it’s acceptable. I used 2” pink foam board to make the mold. Under...

Points noted 😁

Sand longwise and not crosswise Glenn

I was just going to say....both of those examples would ground a BUNCH of airplanes if it was a problem. I've seen more with a sloppy drill job than...

We can’t answer you because the federales now want all prop work done by approved shops. But think about it -that stuff starts peeling off the...

Not mine. Looking for a friend...

How could a ramp check possibly have access to your 337s? As as far as I can tell, only aux. fuselage fuel tanks require that the 337 be on...

Did you break yours?

Every rag and tube Piper has the threads made by those screws.

Dakota?

16....certificated cub

13 or 16 rib?

Yeah, I really don’t want to reef (spelling?) on stuff that could be a failure point. The Baumann’s are fairly fragile compared to many of the other...

This is one of the problems with FAA. The pendulum keeps swinging, and what needed field approvals 20 years ago is now done with log book entries,...

The subsequent landing lights or even the initial LED replacement? The Whelen LED comes with an STC so based on everything said here it’d need a...

I do landing lights as minor alteration, log book entry only. Use the flow chart in AC43-210A to arrive at that answer. I love using FAA supplied...

First, I'd be REALLY careful putting much strain on float cleats. I'd rather connect to something structural, like the spreader bars. If your...

That's a great question....they're light bulbs, fer crying out loud....and, according to the regs, even I am qualified to change a light bulb.....and...

My dad used to use a winch bolted to the floor with a long controller lead to pull the cub on skis in in the winter. That and myself and my brother...

I don't think so. The model identification should identify such. For example the "Borer" is a 1A175GM824x. The same propeller with a 2" spacer is a...

Maybe a spacer that was not used for this application...

What if you're replacing your aging incandescent landing lights with LED's? Is only one 337 required to change them out or do you need a different...

Mine is due in October. I had my GP do it. It was a first for her and she read all the stuff and agreed it’s what she does for me at least once a...

Thank you everyone. Pretty clear now. I got the mechanic to do a 337. Turns out in the case of the flap rollers, the STC applies to the one “special...

You should have been in the room at an annual IA meeting when Bill O'Brien stated a 337 was required for radio installations. Most of the IAs cried...

If you get tired of replacing those door handles after they strip out (not to mention the safety issue they cause when your passenger reefs on the...
