Greg: I had static wicks on my Bonanza and it didn't keep the old loran from losing reference in the rain. And then there was that afternoon over Eugene,...
Maybe I'm just too simple to understand the mystical "whys" and "wherefores" of FAA thinking but, it would seem to me that it shouldn't be that hard a thing to...
Most other airplanes have flat floors. You can't use the same mounting as the airplane the seats came off of unless you either put risers on the inboard tracks...
On another front. I have now acquired several complete sets of fold down split back seats surplus. They are primed and have rear seat springs on the lower...
Anyone out there used a Rocky Mountain Instruments encoder to populate their GPS navigator with airdata? The Shadin gear is like $3k or more and has all...
Greg, I have read all the post's on this and there are a couple things I'd like to toss my 2 cents in on. First, storm scope's work off this exact principle,...
Greg, I have one in my Navion. There's a 337 (field approval) on the www.navioneers.org website. I didn't hook it up to anything else. I just replaced my VSI...
Thanks Bill, I guess I was just musing because I believe I could get one very inexpensively right now. Having looked at my Garmin manual last night I see that...
Erich et al, Thank you all for the replies on this static wick question. I gather that no one has installed them on a Navion - because they did not need to....
Greg, The feature I use in flight the most is the "True Airspeed" function. I have a true airspeed ASI but I have to get the OAT then squint at all those...
Paul Thomas, I have not recorded your new e-mail (anyone got it?) but last time we talked you wanted info on a guy I had talked to in Washington State about...
Just looked at the Rocky Mountain Web site, interesting unit. Is that a single unit you are able to get or is it someone who has a number of them? If so, I...
Rich, Single unit. If I don't do anything with it, I will let you know. Greg Farah ... that a single unit you are able to get or is it someone who has a ...
Greg, Yea sure, I'd be happy to talk with you. My phone # is 815-276-5810 I'm around most evenings after 6 Central time. In reference to your question on...
I had a NAvion Insurance check-out that caught me off guard in my own aircraft. "Flaps-up", "Gear-up" at the same time on a 'touch and go'! I hit the gear...

Thanks Rusty... About 18 years ago, I had a pilot who was cleared for "short-final" and lowered both the "full-flaps" and landing-gear handles at the same ...
George, I'm very sorry to hear of your situation. To answer your main question; the Structural Repair Manual oddly does NOT cover Attach Angle Damage....
I have a company here in Van Nuys that will make your attach angles to original spec. Pull your wings install the new angles and your off. Matt J 818-686-9164 ...
Thanks Matt J, Scott and Rusty for your quick responses! If would be helpful to know the cost of parts, time (labor) on dematting, etc! I looked at previous...
George D, See if Tom D has angles. If he does Ill demate inspect, clean, perform fuel system inspection, install and reassemble in 80 man hours @ $65.00 plus...
Thanks Bill! I need to call him when I inspect for and other damage! Mainly lower skin, flap hinge attach points, replacement parts, etc. I just haven't...
Hi George, Sorry about your problem and maybe I'm just being a spoiler but if your insurance company wants estimates why don't the get them themselves instead...
