You must still fill out a FAA form 337. The STC is the approval status for the 337 (approved data). Also, if the current draw is much less, you may also have to replace your circuit breaker.

Bob, I'm not denying that there are accidents where the gust lock was left in place, but on on a PA32 there isn't. The Darwin Awards are notorious for their "editorial" content and...

Now, if we can just keep the press away from aviation, we'd all be set. Has anyone here seen a Piper with a gust lock? No. Pipers lawyers, a long time ago, reasoned that the liability was too...

Pulsating Lights

Try turning off your flashing beacon, and see if the pulsating goes away. This happened when I had a C-150 (same system). The power supply should have a dummy load resistor on the opposite end from...

O-2a Rear Alternator

When I needed one for my O-2, I cross checked the unit as the same as a 28v, 60a unit from a late 70's- early 80's vintage 172. I've got over 300 hours on it without a hitch. I beleive that it is a...

Belt Drive Alternator

The one big problem with that is the drive pulley bolts to the flange on the prop hub. That doesn't give you a place to bolt the spinner bulhead. According to the type certificate, A6CE, the rear...
