I flew my RV-3 from Palo Alto to Phoenix today….stopped in Victorville for fuel, and an hour from Phoenix I lost my alternator. Pulled all the breakers, called ahead to Albuquerque and asked them to let Phoenix class Bravo know I was coming through under the Bravo with (possibly) no radio or transponder. They called ahead to Chandler, transponder crapped out but my radio held on till I landed. No emergency, plane is fine, safe on ground.
But I need an alternator. I’m gonna grab some tools and pull out the battery in the morning and charge it up, and try to find an alternator that will work to get me home.
Anybody help me out with a spare alternator? I’m in Tempe about 20 min from Chandler. Was gonna head home Sunday, hoping I can get this patched up enough to not have to stay Monday.
