    What’s this white stuff on the spark plugs?

    Here is another opinion that I would like to share. “What I'm seeing in your photos appears to be ash fouling, not lead or oil fouling. Ash fouling can be caused by fuel or oil additives, or by having a too-cool heat range spark plug installed. It's actually indicative of the plug running too...

    What’s this white stuff on the spark plugs?

    Thanks Do you know if any particular behavior on my part could have contributed to the gap exceeding specs within only a year of use?

    What’s this white stuff on the spark plugs?

    It was running OK for the most part, but the mag checks were always rough unless I leaned up to 2000RPM (set MP so that RPM would go to about 1950, and then pulled back mixture so that RPM would climb to 2000). Just wondering what this is because it didn’t look like anything I could find on the...

    What’s this white stuff on the spark plugs?

    This white residue was on all of my spark plugs at annual. Is this lead bromide from LOP operations? These plugs were installed after major overhaul and were not changed or cleaned for 100 hours. The first fifty hours consisted of ROP fly-it-like you-stole-it for break-in. The next 50 hours I...

    Panel Envy Sux

    You’re asking me for MY opinion, and it seems like I’m in the minority these days. My preferred look would be a regular attitude indicator and a King HSI. If I had to pick glass just based on looks, a pair of G5’s would be better than something like an Aspen (I like the different instruments...

    Panel Envy Sux

    YOUR panel is my dream panel. It’s not just the amount of stuff. It’s the stuff in it and the way it all looks.

    Panel Envy Sux

    Is it strange that in this day in age I still prefer the look of a clean six-pack to a glass panel? I can't help it, but it's true.

    PIREP - Jetline Simulation Bahamas

    He is using it for tourism/entertainment for now. He wishes to expand his business to use this as an actual training tool for airline pilots. It looked brand-spanking new to me. I don’t think it’s a runout simulator.

    Bendixking AeroFlight (KI 300) and AeroCruze (KFC 230)

    THANKS! Can the KI300 talk to the S-TEC System Sixty PSS? I am told that the G5 cannot.

    Frustrated

    I am going to say this even though I am afraid that it will come off as abrasive or mean or unsolicited advice, and I will go ahead and do so because it drives me a bit up the wall when patients’ self-assessment of their health is way out of alignment with reality. Diabetes by itself puts you...

    Bendixking AeroFlight (KI 300) and AeroCruze (KFC 230)

    I must not be describing my avionics correctly. I do have the ability to control pitch. I see no other labels other than Piper Autocontrol, so I assumed it was part of the same system. I believe what you’re saying, so I must already have the pitch-only system alongside the Autocontrol IIIb...

    Bendixking AeroFlight (KI 300) and AeroCruze (KFC 230)

    Steve, I have a Piper Autocontrol IIIb autopilot (my understanding is that this is identical to Century II). Can the KI 300 talk to my autopilot to maintain altitude? The Garmin G5 cannot, and I am wondering if this is an area where your product as an advantage.

    Any advice on Charlotte area GA?

    I just want to write back to follow up on what I did. Despite the majority support for JQF, I went to CLT because my wife would not agree to a flight than looked like 4:30 plus planned one-way. Four hours was her limit, and she budged and allowed for CLT which was 4:15. So, 4:30 to 4:45 was...
