    replace a kx 170b with kx155

    A little update on the problem I was having. We decided to try swapping the radio boxes first. We have the KX-170b and a Mac-1700, since they are interchangeable we swapped them. On the next ILS test we did, we found that the glideslope did work as expected however, the localizer is 5 degrees...

    Kid killed in Navy ejection seat

    I was at an Airshow with the E-3 a couple years ago and we had a 6 year old blow the emergency pneumatic brake on us. Bad part was we had people in the cockpit watching the kid and were not able to stop it in time. Something about red handles that draw attention

    Paint my exahust headers? (Changed from muffler)

    That makes sense, are there any ways to preserve it so it does not return to the rusty mess it started out as?

    Paint my exahust headers? (Changed from muffler)

    No, it is all mild steel, when I took it to the shop it looked like it was painted black except the couplings which were all rusted out. The shop media blasted it all and referbished the whole thing.

    Paint my exahust headers? (Changed from muffler)

    Hello all, I just received my Piper Cherokee exahust system back from getting repaired. After the repairs the shop left it bare metal. Should I paint it with some header paint before install?
