Sure... After washing, I wipe it down with kerosene (don't smoke while you do it [emoji4]). It will "dry" and leave a film. Wipe it to a deep shine. This is what it looks like on my car and truck. A nice side benefit... Put a cup in your wash water and it will act like a corrosion inhibitor...

They will vector you MUCH closer than 20 miles. Ask for a turn-on at the marker. If the storms are that close to the airport, maybe wait it out. The other option puts you in a possible go-around into the weather. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

They won't do opposite direction operations. Just fly past and stay close to the airport. Why not do an ILS? Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

You won't find this anywhere, but it worked very well for me. I had one cylinder beginning to drop compression and the oil was getting dirty quickly. I dumped a quart of MMO into the sump and ran the engine hard (75%) for about 15 hours. Also, run high MP and low rpm if you can. In other...

A great way to force your brain into the proper decision making mode: Think of every decision as a bet. In other words, 'would I bet $10,000 the decision I'm about to make is the correct one?' If the answer is no, the problem is one of two things... 1.) You don't have enough information to...

I did miss this.... Selling in 24 months.... Probably not. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

I have two O470's (C-310). Insight G4 monitor. So far I have diagnosed, fouled #6 plug. Induction leak in connection between the #5 intake riser and the balance tube. A bad (intermittent) mag. The G4 has exhaust valve monitoring as well as vibration in addition to the normal...

"Debris over a large area" sounds like mechanical failure. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

Hehe... He was all legs. It was kind of Entertaining watching him squeeze into the cockpit of a SAAB 340. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

Yes. $6.00 at Mouser and about 40 minutes to solder a new one in. King wanted $400 to replace the battery! [emoji50] Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

The definition of courage really is, being scared and doing it anyway. I would look for someone that fits that bill. If you want stories of courageous pilots, I would look to the rescue pilots. These are the guys that go out no matter what the conditions and rescue people. Especially in Alaska...
