They are there for a good reason. Great posts by folks with their own

Hi All,
I fly from 5673 MSL. I often drive to 11,000 MSL. I have seen many people
have issues at that altitude. If you get a mountain checkout they will provide
you with some good information about flying at altitude. FAA requirements
aside; at one point I was suggested to just use my oxyge

I have a medical oxygen tank that someone gave to me. Would anyone happen
to know if a medical tank is suitable for aircraft use? I guess that my

Hi Folks
Does anyone out there have experience with these things. I'm thinking of
installing one to monitor mixtures but the wide band ones seem costly and I
wonder whether they'd last on Avgas even 100LL because of the lead. Is there
one around that doesn't get poisoned. Also does anyone know

You are really going to love the air/fuel ratio meter with the oxygen

be willing to bet that anyone else that tries one will feel the same way.
