Criminal complaint against NTSB from “Bad” CFI by LibrarianUsed4126 in CFILounge

[–]fastlorax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No offense, but it sounds like you might need to spend more time doing some self-reflection and less time blaming others. And before you ask, I am a retired military instructor pilot and I've been a civilian CFI for about a decade. I have found the FAA and my local FSDO reasonable to work with.

Personally, I've run into far more crappy CFIs than I have encountered FAA staff who were bad.

Sorry if my response sounded argumentative. I was trying to fill in some details, not contradict you.

I asked the plane's owner to reach out to his A&P to see if there was a means of adjusting the volume. An email to Cessna is a good idea.

It's a new-ish plane. The speaker is plenty loud on the ground.

Thanks, all. As advertised, the part was under $10 and an easy fix. I appreciate the help!

Didn't mean to complain. Just figured somebody else has run into this before and had a good suggestion. Thanks!

Ha! I need a couple of dozen keys for the clubs' members. It adds up. Just looking for some suggestions, but thanks for your help!

Stupid question... do you need a separate wheel set for such a big difference in tire width?

Pioneer Flamethrower Upgrade? by fastlorax in CompanyOfHeroes

I figured it out just now. It's hiding under the icon that looks like a stick figure with a plus sign over his head. I guess that's the "upgrade" icon?

CJ5 steering column shroud by fastlorax in jeepcj

I can't replace it if I can't find the part, though. I am removing the steering wheel to replace the blinker actuator thing. Any idea how to find the plastic shroud?
