Getting Back in the Air

Plane and Pilot

The 172 has a steerable nosewheel, much heavier than the rudders on my RV-9A with a castering nosewheel. Repairs included replacing the pitot tube/angle-of-attack sensor and the outside air temperature probe. Not really a problem, as the CFI and I had a great chat for an hour about things aeronautical.
