  1. Vr, Vx, Vy, Va, Vbg, Vfe, Vle, and touchdown speeds with and without flaps at MGW -200 and -600 lbs.
  2. Ah, we were talking about the user-defined ticks on manifold pressure gauge.
  3. Great, thanks for the insight! Waiting for them to respond.
  4. Thanks, Eric! Reached out to McFarlane and LASAR. Looks like BAS Parts has a used cable, might as well snatch that one in case all else fails.
  5. Thanks. McFarlane appears to only carry controls for vernier-type designs. I suspect insufficient lubrication or something thermally seizing because the control works perfectly once the plane warms up a bit.
  6. My engine controls are becoming very difficult to operate in cold weather, especially the mixture control. What is the appropriate winter lubricant and lubrication points? Haven't been able to find this info in my maintenance manual. I have a 71E with those silly levers.
  7. I do not know the owner/filmmaker. Just stumbled upon this video on Youtube. Hope someone in Europe has a wing collecting dust in the far corner of the hangar..
  8. Any word on other Peninsula airports?
  9. Hope he finds a way to fly again. A very sad story.
  10. @N201MKTurbo @MikeOH Thank you both. I am going to do some more diagnostics today.
  11. Exhibit A vs. Exhibit B..
  12. Thank you Mark, you are very kind. I will gather a bit more information and come back to you. What model alternator and VR did you end up installing?
  13. Currently running an overhauled ALY-8520(R), which appears to be on its last legs. Considering a replacement of both the alternator and the voltage regulator, presently the original OECO. Two questions for the community: * Is there a benefit in changing from ALY-8520(R) to AL12-P70? I can find the former model as an overhauled unit, and the latter as either OH or new. * I am given to understand that Zeftronics R1530B is a better "match" for ALY-8520, and the Plane Power R1224 a better "match" for the AL12-P70. Is this correct?
