    Past Service Bulletins - Best Approach?

    Ah ….. this is going to be a lot more interesting. If I understand correctly for example, Cessna won’t have a SB for the seat belts it installed in its aircraft when it was made. I need to determine what brand if seatbelt I have and go to its website site. Or maybe the headliner...

    You’re getting a new case to get the traditional two mags and dump the single dual mag system you currently have? Unrelated to the set screw propeller problem.

    Did I also mention my outside door handle fell off? Oh …. The fuel pump died as well. How could I forget that. It had a radio - AM only.

    Past Service Bulletins - Best Approach?

    Where does one go to get all of these? Web sites, FAA, etc? I’m starting from ground zero here. Got to love this place for all the help and knowledge.

    Past Service Bulletins - Best Approach?

    Good ideas and sources. And Jim brought into the light that there is separate list for airframes vs engine.

    Past Service Bulletins - Best Approach?

    What is a good, what is the common practice to make sure past Service Bulletins are not skipped. Some recent threads on missed past Service Bulletins and our club’s recent experience has prompted this question. ADs are sent to the current owner and, and a list of current ADs can be found...

    I’m not sure why you’d want him to do the work again. Why would you expect a different outcome?

    Ipad on Cessna 182

    Eh - opinions vary. I glance at the I Pad during an approach for a cross reference as well as a double check on situational awareness. I don’t have a moving map on my GTN BTW.

    At the minimum he skipped the locktite.

    Ipad on Cessna 182

    Everyone is different. I tried several locations. For me, minimal head movement was important; no up and down. So putting the i pad on a ram mount left side of windshield eye level did the trick.

    Interesting. I’m still also part of the “where is the locktite” camp.

    Did it chew metal and needs to have an IRAN, or does the case just need to be split and that part reattached?

    I’m loosing track. Engine is broken again because of a part associated with controlling the prop. To fix it you have to split the case again, and maybe it chewed some metal. How does the single vs dual mag issue come in?

    Which is why doing it myself would get around that. And hey - I’m retired - it would keep me out of the house. Parts shortages - hopefully it’s better now than Covid; can’t really do anything about it.

    How do you fly it without a dual mag?

    FFS. I need a new hobby.

    I have got to get my A&P. I’d take twice the time and have to buy a few expensive things, but I’m sure I can - with some paid help when get stuck - rebuild in less than 2 years.

    What kind of engine we talking about, and does it involve a Flux Capacitor?
