    Need a mentor

    I have a 1976 114 and flown across the country and never had to go higher than 12,500. I am VFR because I never has to be someplace at a certain time. If I did need to be there I would fly commercial - which I don't do as I never have to take my shoes off when I want to fly. I also like VFR...

    Fuel prices

    WA. Chehalis Centralia Airport KCLS $2.80 a gal. Great place to fuel up as it is a very nice airport and not that far away. In many places here auto gas higher than aviation fuel - not a lot but still higher. Unreal!!!!! Lots of pilots flying from my airport KVUO as we have had some great flying WX.

    Commander down, glad all ok

    Pat - best of all - glad to hear all ok - you worked very hard on your commander and it would really upset me if something like that happened to my airplane.

    New Cowling Update

    The first post says it is for a 114 and #4 post is universal parts that are on 112,112A,112B,114,114A. The cowl, if I am reading it right, is not for a 112.

    New Cowling Update

    My understand is the cowl being presented is for a 114. My 114 1976 does not have screws for securing the top cowl as it has 2 latches on each side.

    New Gear Pumps

    Mine has never change since I have owned it -- the nose is first and the right is next. If mine changed I would wonder what was wrong. Michael your landing gear operates in the same sequence as mine. I have landed at Salem a lot over the years. Great place to eat for sure! BTW I try to keep...

    New Gear Pumps

    On jacks - I have timed mine multiple times and up it is about 10 to 11 seconds. Down around 5 secs. Hydraulic dump -- down immediately on the ground. Hydraulic dump in the air is immediate for the mains but the nose has to have less than or around 80 kts before it will thump in and get a...

    Finally, some flight time

    Nice video -- I was looking for the 3 green and only saw 2 come on during the landing. Maybe it was the way the camera was angled. I have never been to that part of the country --- was nice to see the landscape. Very nice!

    File Size Upload Error for Pictures - Exceeded 2MB

    I posted this link in another post regarding pictures. I use it and it is dirt simple and you do not lose aspect ratio. You can make them KB size vs MB's. Big difference when you want to send by email or even post here. https://www.easytechguides.com/resize-pictures.html

    Landing gear circuit breaker

    When I bought my airplane it only had a non-pullable breaker for the gear pump and it was changed out at the first opportunity. Why it had not been changed out years ago is rather puzzling. After reading the posts here over the years it appears all of the Commanders had the non-pullable...

    automatic renewal

    Re: automatic renewal You have to be proactive and monitor it which you can do by clicking on my profile and check when your subscription is up. That is what I did and my service has been uninterrupted. The last time it got interrupted is when I did not renew it before it expired. I think a...

    Super Stream

    Re: Super Stream Give Jim a call and maybe some that are equipped would be able to give you call and the run down on their experience. While reading previous posts might give you some info - talking to the owner person to person might be more productive for asking questions.

    What would you do?

    Re: What would you do? I have an excellent AP/IA that is super good regarding building engines so I would prefer to buy one that needed an engine but it would have to be in airworthy condition to fly to my airport. I would expect the condition of the airplane/avionics and engine would be...
