    N/A HVAC ECM blower motor not working

    Did you talk to goodman technical support? Your low voltage is really low a transformer gets the volts down to 24v dc this is used by the thermostat to pull in the relays that feed high voltage to the fan in the air handler and compressor and associated fan. High voltage 220-240ac low voltage...

    N/A HVAC ECM blower motor not working

    Sound like a bad tech, possibly a bad thermostat(when weird things happen its always the thermostat someone’s painted or sanded?), and you should call goodmans technical support. I like relays and capacitors no ordering parts because every tech keeps them on the truck and no computer to...

    Emergency battery pack for home refrigerator?

    I would spend an amu and go buy a 2200 watt honda super quiet generator. I have been using one at work for over a decade. Small portable and quiet best of all honda quality. Batteries dont last and are far worse for the environment(my opinion).

    Is it just me, or is the PHAK poorly written?

    Is it just me, or is the PHAK poorly written?

    Wow this is a harsh crowd;) pilots should be able to read and understand faa documents. Even if like my posts these documents have glaring and sometimes funny flaws. I as a pilot use the phak as a reference like the far/aim, acs and pts all published by the faa. Just saying this helped me...

    Is it just me, or is the PHAK poorly written?

    Is it just me, or is the PHAK poorly written?

    Flying is hard and if u want to really know what is up you should read this government publication. Written by people who know nothing on the subject…just wait till on your written when u intensionally submit a wrong answer to get the question right. I recommend this book to anyone interested...

    Spatial disorientation in IMC

    Anything above hobby and u need an autopilot and usually u have two pilots up front. Its a no go ifr item for me….i am no hero heading and altitude are crucial. Especially when u get a reroute or missed approach or or or. Sometimes u need to figure things out.

    PC 12 Down off of NC Coast

    Hard part to read. “He pulled back throttle”……. But he never pushed it back in! When the son called out to his dad is heart breaking. As a pilot I am glad we can read these things disappointed in the amount of cursing did not realize # was for that until about half way through. This was/is sad.

    School me, what is the appeal of Land Rovers?

    A good friend is a certified range rover mechanic. All the time he is asked by customers if they bought a lemon and his response is always no you bought a range rover. Toyota for me.

    UFLYMIKE headsets are garbage.
