The Annual on my 1976 Cessna 150M went very well! It was a very long day Saturday 10-29-05, We now have the airplane mostly all sealed back up Waiting On Parts!

4, Check Mag's, Slick 4201’s Recommended Mags Should Be Serviced No record In Logs Of Mag’s Being Serviced Ever
But IA Says Part 91 Not Required, Removed For Servicing On 10-29! 10-30 Found Crack’s In Housings Barings Were Worn Out The Seals In 1 Were Shot Large Gear Was Beyond Limits & Brush Was Stuck Good Decision I Made For Removal & Inspection! Bad For Wallet $1,225.00 :bawling:+ Exchange + $150.00 Mail In Rebate Includes 2 4301 Mag’s & Harness! I Fly This Bird In Actual IFR So I Had the Inspection Done, Glad I Did!!!!!!

10, Changed Oil & Filter, Cut & Inspected Oil Filter All Ok.
11, Since Mags Were Removed Inspected Gears In Engine All Looked Good.
12, Dressed Prop Had A Few Small Nicks Have To Stay Off them Gravel Strips!
13, Few other little things that are not airworthiness issues that are being
done! I left the list at the airplane!
14, Compressions Were All 76/80 or better:beer:
Annual Inspection Complete! Not many Squawks This year & nothing real Expensive! Except For Mags! I Had To Dip In To My CFI Training Money Ouch!! The Parts That Are Needed Will Be Ordered On Monday And Replaced This Week While I Am Flying A 210 Almost 2000NM For A Customer!
Everything Will Be Signed Off At One Time, The Throttle Cable Was A Big Surprise & Also The Mag’s Were A Surprise How Bad They Really Were Kind Of Scared Me A Little, So Far This Annual Has Not That Bad Fairly Quick & Through.
I like this owner assisted annual always learning! I Learned how having an airplane in 1 climate "wet & moist" most of its life then going to another climate "hot & dry" for a few months really reeks havoc on old rubber parts! I learned That Mag’s Should be Checked Out At Leased Every 500 Hours Or @ Every Annual! This Is My Second Annual Ever So Still Lots More To Learn.
I Will Fill You all In Next Week! When She Is All Put Back Together.
