About this episode
In the beginning of this week’s podcast episode, I want to give a big congratulations to my friend, Chris Wieczorek, who recently got his A&P certificate!
Listen to the audio to find out how Chris pursued getting his A&P in the midst of being a full time attorney and engineer with a wife and 4 kids!
Chris, you are an inspiration! Well done!
This week I also had the opportunity to take care of a couple issues on my friend, Dave Ovad’s Bonanza… you can hear more about these items as well in the podcast:
We turned up his full power fuel flow a bit to bring the CHT’s down.We installed a couple very specific washers in his nose gear retraction linkage at the idler arm connection. The washer part number is 100951CR016YF.
It’s always good to see Dave!
Now for the Piper Cherokee… this is the one I’m completing an annual inspection on, along with some squawk repairs.
Here’s a list of some items on the Cherokee we discuss in this podcast episode:
Resealing and lubing the fuel selector valve.Installing a new flash tube in the tail strobe light.Replacing the old style throttle and mixture control rod ends with the new rod end bearing style rod ends.Replacing one cowling pin bushing (part number 69790-000.)Installing a new 28L battery in the ELT remote switch in the instrument panel.
The final two items we talk about in this episode are two different electrical issues on two different airplanes.
The first one is an A36 Bo
