CPA
I second Kevin McDole's comments. CPA has no designs on our website. It's pure conincidence. CPA's courses (I've attended only one - the 337 course) are well worth the time and money for their...

mag check
Thank all of you for the input. I failed to mention in my original request that I have a 337G normally aspirated engine. Perhaps the turbo is more sensitive but the premises mentioned should apply to...

Mag Check in Flight
My mechanic is chasing a mag drop in my front engine and chastized me for checking my mags in flight. I told him that's the only way I found the problem. I have checked mags in flight for almost 50...

XWIND
I have a 1976 337G normallly aspirated. The book says the "maximum demonstrated crosswind velocity" is 12 knots. This is not a limiting factor - just what they had when they did the original flight...

Takeoff power

Cessna Service Bulletins
Sorry that didn't work. I am surprised Cessna doesn't want the information out for safety purposes (to cover the butts, actually) rather than try to collect a few dollars per SB.
Keep my $10....

GX60
Keven,
I was not aware of a fix. Thanks for the information. I think I am going to have to send mine back for a display fix anyway, so will get it updated. Thanks again.
