If your work takes you to NY then you have a place to stay and a plane to
fly. I have my own spin on all this. Living as close to NY as I do, the only
people worse off are the poor soles flying around Washington. C6ntact me off
list I would love to chat.

Kick butt and take names, that is what you can do. Good for you. If you
get to Colorado I'll give you a "non-stop sightseeing flight with-in 25
statute miles...that will begin and end at the same airport..." in a
Sukhoi-29 (two seats). Ricky B

The only thing I hate more than the FAA is the TSA. I feel a deep rage I
can't help, and sometimes I am embarrassed at my emotions.
What's one girl to do?
I work in the media and am developing (among other things) a late night
comedy television show and a series of aviation videos (a la Discovery
Channel.) I can only do what I know, so I have pledged (to myself) that a
portion of my efforts will showcase how these agencies behave. I'm not
thinking bad press as much as public humiliation.
Tell me I'm wasting my time. Tell me I'll get in trouble, have my
certificate revoked, or that I am unAmerican. It's ok - I've already been
told all that.
But if I stand by and just observe my passion (aviation) get flushed further
and further down the toilet without taking an action that I am capable of, I
deserve the nothing I get.
So now that Harry Dutson generously gave me an Association membership as a
Christmas present, and you see me out there with my camera, at least smile
at me and tell me I'm doing good. (Oh, and start passing the hat to bail me
out of the pokey.)

This is not directly related to this community, but it brings up one reason
why being 'organized' is so critical.
Having seen the FAAs madness first-hand in the Long Beach FSDO informing me
that the Southern California Flight Standards chiefs had all had a 'secret',
non public meeting and decided to kick out Eastern Block jets from several
airports, including mine, and greatly restricted my (and others here in
Torrance) freedom to operate the CJ, I can understand the frustration.
The LOA change issue last year that had such a major impact on the jet
owners at least shows that a united, and vocal, GA community can at least
alter or steer this mad cow of a federal agency. The outcome of that issue
could have been much worse without key folks getting involved, and getting
the 'victims' organized, at least on paper.
This one hits right in the pocket book,
Drew

| Subject: | CJ Air Filter... |
--> Yak-List message posted by: Jeff Linebaugh <jefflinebaugh@earthlink.net>
CJ Folks,
The subject of air filters and corrosion has come up on the yak-list before...let
me add my experience...
I installed a new "long" air filter in my CJ one year ago and flew 60 hours this
year. Upon opening up the filter I found nasty crud.... in the filters, screens
and desicant-to be expected. What I didn't expect to find was "significant"
corrosion on the inside of the air filter barrel. The corrosion appears to
be intergranular...perhaps precipitated by all the moisture and gook inside?
Anyways, the corrosion left pitting of greater than 1/16th inch in several spots...and
this after only 60 hours/one year in use.
I bring this up because Doug has voiced his concern about this in the past, and
he has come up with a solution. As has been suggested...DON'T wait until your
next annual/condition inspection to check your air filter. These things can
literally be a ticking time bomb right there on your firewall...
Doug, could you please send me one of your new Stainless Air Filter Barrels?
Thanks,
Jeff Linebaugh
