    FAA approved electronic E6B and flight bag suggestions

    Roger that but she has the flying bug and moving along in training nicely. Getting to the stage where she will need the E6B while preparing for and during written test. Now wanting a small bag for headset, sunglasses, map, notepad, etc for grab and go convenience. Basically just needing real...

    FAA approved electronic E6B and flight bag suggestions

    Would like to know which FAA test approved E6B seems to work the best for student pilots. Are they all one in the same? One just as good as the other? Needing to purchase one for 15yr old and figured I'd ask first. Also, any flight bag suggestions for her? As always, flying on a budget and...

    Training With 2 Instructors?

    No problem. Print off a syllabus and explain situation to instructors. I am currently in that same situation and actually feel like I'm getting better training. My CFI's have two different flying styles which in turn gives me two different perspectives. Long Gaps between training will do more...

    Doing the math - buy a trainer to train, or rent

    The guys who own and renting aircraft out are making money, right? So technically that tells me that ownership can break even or be cheaper. Rent while you shop. Find a good solid, low time engine, economical proven trainer. Fly, fly, fly. Guess I went against the grain of most. I purchased a...

    Liberty University in Virginia

    Myself and family are a Christian household so the Christian based evangelical whachos do not scare me at all :) . What does scare me is the liberal immoral agenda being pushed upon our young and destroying our country. My children will learn to walk by their faith and create their on future...

    Liberty University in Virginia

    Thanks for the reply. The more I researched last night the more I liked the school. Of course, it will depend upon daughter's liking. University of Virginia has shown interest in her to play ball so we will be heading up there soon. Plan to swing through and speak with Liberty also. Seems to...

    O-200-A stuck exhaust valve.

    I didn't pull that thought out my Ass. You have stock in them? I like anyone else "googled" what you suggested and immediately had multiple articles pop up. I'm no mechanic, just asking a simple question. Slander? Better sue Google but that Ahole comment of yours did more damage for ECI in...

    O-200-A stuck exhaust valve.

    See where ECI cylinders have had issues in the past. Concerns?

    O-200-A stuck exhaust valve.

    Yes, decided to do just that after researching. Any specific type/brand I need to concentrate on? Stay close to original or get the aftermarket types? They all seem within a few hundred bucks of each other.

    O-200-A stuck exhaust valve.

    We tried that but made no difference. Had my fingers crossed. So, would the best move be to bite the bullet and purchase new cylinder? Then rebuild my original as a spare, assuming that it's a seat problem and nothing else. Trying to go smartest route for the money. Like most, flying on a...

    O-200-A stuck exhaust valve.

    Yes, hissing through exhaust. Was thinking myself it should be a fairly cut and dry fix but AP/AI (friend) wasn't to keen on attempting. Wanting to fix as safely and low budget as possible. Having trouble researching and finding price for rebuilding mine.

    O-200-A stuck exhaust valve.

    Found yesterday evening that #4 exhaust valve seems to be stuck open. Mechanic and I were doing compression checks and had 73-74-73/80 on first 3 Cold. Nothing on #4. Buttoned things up and ran engine until oil temperature came up and checked again with no change. Little history: Purchased...
