Re: Hartzell prop (or govenor?) squealing on startup

Re: Standby Attitude Indicator Replacement
Curious if the additional altimeter in that is required to be checked as well at IFR certs?

Re: Awww CRAP! What's in the trim wheel cavity???
the heater vent in the rear seat foot area is held in by velcro and can easily be pulled out. From the back you can access all the stuff under the seat as well.

Re: No-drip oil filter change - with pics!
Can anyone share if they have found an easy way to install the oil screen plug and safety wire it. Even with the exhaust removed, it is a challenge, and with the exhaust in place, near impossible. Additionally, how often do most folks check it? It is not in the DA40 AMM at all, nor in the Lycoming o...

Re: DA-40 Audio Issue
Normally there is the "bong" noise when the warnings go off, perhaps somehow the sound file got corrupted wherever it lives in the G1000. You'd think the Garmin folks would know, or perhaps just reloading the system software would fix it.

Mine just renewed for the exact same rate as prior year, which was good news to me!

Re: Gas tank cap cover
Steve, parts in hand and hoping for a brief synopsis of how to change the 2 small o-rings in the kit. Surprising that Newton has absolutely no instructions for these things! I recall reading somewhere that if you don't do it right, the lock springs fly out.

You didn't miss anything at the Sedona restaurant! Overpriced mediocre food. Been there twice and disappointed both times.

Re: DA20-C1 Loses Nosewheel, Lands Safely
It is surprising maintenance problems like this don't happen more often. I don't know how the DA20 nosewheel is connected, but brings back some maintenance PTSD of likely losing one of my main wheels had I not been present and supervising a routine tire change. Two mechanics from a high end local sh...
