    Eddy Current Inspection? Piper SB-1345

    Dude, really? I fail to find any value in your responses. I was basically asking if anyone knows of someone that does this kind of work in my area. Something along the lines of, "I had a guy do a similar inspection on my Cardinal last year, his name is Bob, you might give him a call". I...

    Eddy Current Inspection? Piper SB-1345

    Google? What’s that? Seriously dude? I know how to Google. I asked if anyone could recommend someone. That would imply some level of familiarity beyond a Google search.

    Eddy Current Inspection? Piper SB-1345

    Just the NDT. My A&P will pull the bolts and then replace them after the NDT inspection is complete.

    Eddy Current Inspection? Piper SB-1345

    I'm going to have the Piper SB-1345 done on my Arrow. Can anyone recommend someone near Houston, TX that is qualified in accordance with NAS 410 Level II or Level III? The inspection of the bolt holes must be done in accordance with SAE ARP4402. Has anyone had this done? Either in response...

    Al Worden goes west

    I met Al this past January at an weekend event in Florida. Several of us got to land at the Shuttle Landing Facility and toured the Kennedy Space Center, among other things that weekend. Al was one of the hosts of the event. I don't know the circumstances of his passing, but when I last saw...

    Lost my favorite instructor :(

    Is it weird that when I read posts by Martin I hear his voice in my head? I guess it's because I've watched so many of his videos.

    I think MCAS would solve all of his problems...;)

    I got the "small airplanes are so dangerous talk today"...

    Dozens means at least 24. That is sad, indeed. I hit the 30 year mark in aviation this year, and it was just this year when for the first time someone I knew died while flying. He wasn't a close friend, but I knew him, and I attended the funeral. It certainly makes you think. I have made...

    Let's fly a 1 mile wheelie down the runway.

    That's my neighbor. He can fly that Cub backwards with a tailwind. I flew that very Cub to Oshkosh in 2012!

    TruTrak, where are you?

    The $100 fee is for 1 hour of shop time to do the upgrade. I think that is fair. Someone asked a two-part question, with the second part being about auto-trim. Andrew answered the first-part, but didn't address the question of auto-trim. They do offer auto-trim for the experimental version...

    TruTrak, where are you?

    I attended the webinar. It had a little "Recording" logo in the upper left corner of the screen, so I'm not sure if it recorded it locally on my computer or that was an indication that the hosts were recording it. It lasted 45 minutes and it put my mind at ease somewhat. I got the impression...

    “Ground instruction” scenarios

    If you couldn't give ground training in flight in an aircraft, then the definition of flight training in 61.1 wouldn't need the "other than ground training" exclusion. It would say, "Flight training means that training received from an authorized instructor in flight in an aircraft." But it...

    Climb power - MCP or 25" squared

    I bring the rpms down to 2500 shortly after takeoff for the noise (usually around 700 AGL). I live in a residential airpark, and while we like the sound of airplanes, we try to do what we can for the neighbors around us. I do think about TITs during the climb. Come to think about it, I think...

    TruTrak, where are you?

    TruTrak had a FB page that was a good place to monitor for announcements and updates. Even after the acquisition, they maintained this page for a while. Now, it looks like its gone. The only page I can find is BendixKing. I can't believe they don't have a dedicated page for TruTrak. I don't...

    TruTrak and LNAV+V & LNAV/VNAV

    I can confirm that it will fly an LNAV+V. I have an Avidyne IFD-540 coupled to a TruTrak Vizion.

    TruTrak firmware is ready!

    Per my discussions with TruTrak at Oshkosh, the altitude bug will only work with the G5. Although the Aspen has an altitude bug field, TruTrak said that Aspen is not sending that in the datastream. I suspect they'll work that out with Aspen in the future, but who knows? Another thing I...

    TruTrak firmware is ready!

    Awesome!! I hope the reports are good. I plan on adding dual G5s next spring. I was wondering if the firmware would be ready by then!
