De-ice fluid level indicator went crazy
Seems like the de-ice fluid level indicator can’t decide what to say. It first show a depleted level of de-ice fluid and then kept fluctuating back and forth after I turned the de-ice system on to high setting.

I think the CFII arranged it himself, but they have a LOT of turnover there and there would probably be someone that was interested in the hours.

Re: Failure of electric rudder pedal adjustment
The rudder paddle on my DA40 quit working once due to damaged to the circuit breaker knob under the seat. It was either my shoes or the bag caught the knot while I was stepping out of the cockpit and caused the round cover to break away. This could be one of the reasons. Good luck Sent from my iPhon...

Most interesting is if the wheel caps or aerodynamics of the retracted position is maintained.
Question for OSH.
