David (or anyone else out there) If you are talking about a set of windows, I need them. I am one of the guys the old Europa shorted and they are quite expensive from LP Aero. There was a set of righ
Do not arcive John You're right on. At our old airport in Illinois, we required at least a glider solo for anyone who wanted to learn how to fly. In most cases, they finished the glider rating before
I have a hinge mounted on the aileron about 1/16 from where I want it. I need to move it. The rivets drilled out easily but the manual had me use flox in addition to the rivets. In other words, the h
I am installing a Dynon ASI / AOA indicator. The pitot tube should be parallel to the direction of flight when in cruise. In order to install it, it is necessary to set it with reference to the chord
Jos If you want to use the AOA indicator, they say that you must use the Dynon pitot. It has a second hole in it at about a 60 degree angle from the pitot and the Dynon computer looks at the differen
Graham My understanding is that the two probes are not static and that it will require another static port. Essentially, both are pitot but there will always be a pressure differential between them a
Jos There was an excellent article in Kitplanes about a year ago comparing them all. They rated one of the Telex sets as best bang for the buck. I tried the set on at Lakelnad last year and liked if

Will I had the same question but found both at Aircraft Spruce. I have in front of me "Tempo Aviation Self Etch Primer" and "ACF-50" Anti Corrosion Formula, both --From Spruce. As I recall, the are l
Paul We have run into the dry problem ourselves. We will be there with bells and beer. We are here and are going caving tomorrow (Friday) and will check into the park tomorrow night. Jim and Lynne <h
I couldn't agree more. Really a nice weekend. Driving 15 hours each way was no picnic but maybe next year we can fly. The North American builders who were not there missed a great gathering. We hope
Craig I am at about the same place you are and added a third hinge close to the wingtip. When I did my initial fitting, the tip drooped about 3/16. It appeared to me more like the aileron was warped
Peter Dean Seitz is in Orlando and he has been down here to Punta Gorda before. He would probably be up for a get-totether. His e-mail is below. I think he has about 130 hours on his plane. If you ar
Peter Hope you got over to Miami OK. We heard that Aligator Alley was closed for several hours Sunday. That is always the problem with that piece of road. If there is a severe accident, it really fow

Paul Can you check the link. It does not appear to be correct. Thanks -- Jim Puglise, Punta Gorda, FL Hi All; This is a really neat video recreation of Chuck Yeager's historic flight. The B-29 is pow
Sorry, when I pasted the URL into my browser, it worked fine. Very impressive!!! Jim Hi! Jim It worked OK for me c/w B29 inverted fly by.retractable gear..and a phenomenal pay load!.... I almost said
Paul FYI Aircraft Spruce has a reel of copper strapping material for $ 19.90. For the work you may need to go through, it may be easier to buy it. Also, as was mentioned, the advantage of strapping i
Craig Hard to tell. Some of them will work from HF to VHF, some will not. Obviously, the best bet would be to use a VHF specific bridge if you can get ahold of one. I would Google your bridge and see
Roger I think you'll find that most people use a scale. I have an Ohaus which read to 1/100 of an ounce. Your mixing needs to be very precise and you will do it often, so an easy to use and accurate
