    Restricted Radiotelephone Operator Permit

    I got mine in 1962 and NOBODY has EVER asked to see it!! But the only time you should require it is as you cross the border coming back to the USA. You don't need it in CONUS.

    poor mans GPU

    Wannfly...I modified a standard set of jumper cables by cutting off both ends, installing the Piper "pin" plug on one end of the 2-wire cable and "ring" connectors on the other end that are attached to the 30 amp power supply. That's all there is to it. When you connect the cable to the Piper...

    poor mans GPU

    My Arrow has a power receptacle on the side and I use a 30 amp Astron power supply with the Piper connector and modified jumper cables to run the aircraft electrical system while I "push buttons" inside. Handy way to check navigator s/w updates and access data from engine monitor, etc. Only...

    105 Degree Temps

    Here at KFLY (N.E. of Colorado Springs) with a field elevation of 6900 we regularly have a DA of 10 K on a nice warm summer day. And we will lose the occasional airplane from the low country that stops in for gas but tries to take off with full rich mixture.

    For Sale Tempest Fine Wire URHM 38S spark plugs

    I messed up! I ordered 4 Tempest URHM 38S Fine Wire spark plugs from Aircraft Spruce and installed them in my '69 Arrow's IO-360 C1C engine BUT when I started to attach the plug leads I discovered (to my dismay) that I had ordered the wrong plugs and should have ordered Tempest UREM 38S plugs...

    IAD Tonight

    KIAD Reminiscences : I remember flying into KIAD in my Skyhawk in the '70s. They actually looked forward to having me take my instrument students there for practice! You could park in the grass (YES, grass) outside the main terminal and go in for a coke. One time my parents flew in from the...

    What's that vent under seat - Archer

    My '69 Arrow also has a vent there. I suspect it is simply a vent so that the heater/defroster and cabin air vents don't over pressurize the cabin. Mine doesn't have a screen over it. My STec trim servo is in the tail. (The pipes and diaphragm are for the disconnected landing gear auto extend...

    Foreflight - Automatic Logbook Entries

    That's interesting because I fly every few days and the FF log book has functioned normally using 12.2.2 since it was installed. I just updated today to 12.3 but haven't flown yet. My iPad interfaces with the Garmin FS-210.
