There have been rumors that the Federal Communications Commission was going to ban the use of 121.5 MHz ELTs by Aug. 1, 2010. You’re still legal to fly with that 121.5 MHz ELT in your aircraft, but the FAA and the FCC are trying to sort things out.

A hidden gem of an airport in the gangland of Southern California Compton-Woodley Airport (KCPM) is doing its part to both survive and promote a healthy love for aviation along with a healthy outlet for today’s youth. Read the LA Times article

The FAA is proposing an AD related to the miss drilling of holes in the control wheels of several models of Piper Aircraft (PA-28 AD, PA-34 AD, PA-44 AD, PA-32 AD SEE BELOW) affecting nearly 42,000 aircraft. Oops!
According to the FAA it is a mistake in manufacturing that has now been corrected. FAA estimates $40 to inspect the problem, however their estimate to fix the problem for repair/replacement cost to involve 16 hours of labor at a total cost of about $1430 per airplane and oh yeah $150 for the part.
This AD is not a rule yet and the FAA is accepting comments until 12/29/09 so if you own one I would comment! Go here to find out where to send your comments and more text of the AD.
