The approved list doesn’t include J,s or later on Aircraft Spruce website

I was advised that no one currently makes a 24 volt VR

BAS is where my current 24V VR was obtained. N1084L was grounded from last December until April while trying to fix Alt Field circuit breaker tripping. It was finally diagnosed to be the voltage regulator. We sent it to Don Maxwell to overhaul. When it came back, the breaker still tripped. It was sent back a second time, and still tripped the circuit breaker when it came back. Finally I ordered a used one from BAS and when it was installed, it cured the problem. We sent the original voltage regulator to Consolidated Aircraft Supply in New York (suggested by @kortopates)and had it repaired there, they found a cold soldered joint that was bad.

So far you have subscriptions for $5K, $5K, $5K and $10K. Yetti, you are down to 20% minority interest.

Does this mean my 2900 gw J qualifies as light sport?

I tackled this job yesterday to comply with AD 2024-21-02 after watching a. A&P/IA do it last oil change and purchasing some long reach wire cutters and needle nose pliers. Only took 4 hours including oil & filter change. I may just pay to have it done in the future.

Yes. Send them to Precise Flight for overhaul

I can’t find the ignore button

@Gee Bee Aeroproducts How can I order. Having a hard time finding your website

@M20F I’ll be arriving with the Caravan.

Where do you park? I’ll come by for breakfast this year

Correct. $$$$$$

I have a GTN750 and have used Foreflight for years. I tried GP when I started using FF but didn’t think it was an improvement. Starting to re-evaluate but my ADS-B in is a stratus 2 which doesn’t appear to be compatible with GP, so looks like I would have to buy a new Stratus. I think I’ll stick with FF which I’ve already learned how to use.

What was your descent rate?

I got signed off yesterday by Snoopy while in Las Vegas for the Henderson PPP. (Got to fly with Don Kaye). No clinics close to the Pacific Northwest since Velcro and Clippy moved away. Janet was gracious enough to take a morning out of her busy schedule to fly with me.

Any formation pilots going to the Henderson PPP next week? Im trying to arrange a proficiency check while there. Snoopy may be able to be the check pilot if there is a lead aircraft

Lela Hughes will email you. See you there if I can get my 24 volt voltage regulator issue resolved by then

You’ve got me beat. I drive a 2003 Tundra

Just received an invoice in the mail from Vector Planepass. I flew to Port Angeles (KCLM) and left it at the FBO to diagnose and fix ALT FLD circuit breaker tripping issue. They are billing me for $10 daily parking fee even though the airplane is parked inside the FBO hanger. I emailed a dispute. Invoice is for “parking”. Airport fee schedule says “tie down”.

Tie down rings (factory) are to be removed before flight. Do those of you using the tie downs to ground install them to fuel then remove them?

Formation flyers with vernier throttles have invented gadgets to disable them

I overnighted at KCFO in April 2023 on my way back to the Pacific Northwest. Good restaurant on the field. Good smaller airport for fuel/ meal stop

Prior to 2023 annual the gear warning horn would occasionally chirp when taxiing over a bump. Advanced happened to have a NBS in stock. Looks like I dodged a bullet of several AMUs
