Yep, but we also need to see the damage from the loose connection. Not to mention, where's the screw floating around in an environment that does not react well to metal things floating around.

We found this in an old Cessna twin while troubleshooting a trim issue.. Can you spot the problem?

The friction test has the 70' error spec. at sea level. The table above shows the altitude in feet, the corresponding inches of mercury, with the allowable error. With interpolation, you would see there is a 70' tolerance at 9,000' ish. With the modern solid state sensors we have today the...

Regretfully my father convinced me I wouldn't be able to fly because of my vision. I've been repairing and modifying general aviation for my entire career, being very privileged to be included in some pretty cool old projects. We were shutting down engines in 441 Cessna's over Eagle CO, at...

I've not worked with the G5 yet but explained to the people new to ADHRS that they now see with a micrometer rather than a yardstick.

Perhaps if you think more about the tasks ahead wrestling with software updates, and compatibility "conflicts", you will most assuredly be swimming in. To maintain your navigation, autopilot, and flight display system and be able to deal with only one manufacturer, will most importantly make...

I spent nearly 40years flying in broken airplanes for a living, at the time it seemed fun until that took place! And Thanks for the welcome!

The little blue connectors are notorious for causing problems, fairly simple to trace and correct. I discovered Stabilant 22 years ago with a service bulletin for columbia aircraft. I put it on every connection I see and wager it will not hurt here.

I just joined and figure what better way to start. My first lesson was in Glenwood Springs Co in a mid 70's 182, I purchased a membership and trained in a 56' 172 and flew it all over the southwest. A favorite activity was to fly full speed a few feet off the ground off a several thousand foot...
