    compression: one cylinder low OK?

    When I bought my 235, one cylinder was reading 58/80. Flew it home and trained in it, 40hrs later it was 72/80. Sometimes it works out.

    Dear Brickwall, So after all this discussion, you are still on the "he's just a jock" band wagon? Unbelievable.

    He was just a jock

    I agree with your post. Today's heroes are in short supply. With that said, Ali has been a role model since the 60's. He's definitely not a flash in the pan and his legacy of helping people only grew with each year and will continue to live on with the charities and programs in his honor, as...

    I missed your point because you didn't have a point, easy to miss something when it's not there. The Google reference was just an easy way to demonstrate how insignificant our impact has been compared to a jock as it was so eloquently put. Here's a novel idea, don't comment on...

    Do you know the difference between a Sunni and Shiite Muslim? Probably not,but let me briefly tell you... they're two groups of Muslims that live next to one another and have been fighting each other for hundreds of years.

    He was just a jock

    Thats not what I am saying, you're probably a good person. GREAT. However, you haven't impacted as many people as Ali has. My whole point is.... he's not just a jock. This isnt a personal attack as much as its a way for "geeks" to appreciate what change an athlete can make in the world. If you...

    He was just a jock

    Oh really? If you want to feel insignificant, google your name.... and then google Mohammad Ali and see just where that gets you..... Google every pilots name you want. You'll soon find that Ali, is at the upper echelon of humans who made an impact in this world since the beginning of time...

    He was just a jock

    I think it's more about his impact on his decision to not go to war and how he persevered through his trials while being outspoken in a time of racial inequality. Since you labeled him as a "jock", I'll assume you're a "geek" (No offense, because you obviously were using "jock" as positive...

    What would you buy: $57k edition

    235 is a GREAT choice. -Stable airframe -Heavy hauler (my useful was 1,417lbs) -150mph speed -Forgiving on a low time pilot Its is a true 4 person plane +fuel. Backseats are small though, hopefully you're not too tall. If not, scoot the seats up and there will be plenty of room.

    How to Preflight your Cirrus (A Satire)

    You should do a "proper way to fuel a Cirrus" video. Talk to the line guy and tell him you're making a video and then just hand him the keys and say "fill er up please" or something like that.
