Should have said razor blades.

I think De Havilland built a few aircraft in Canada. Some bush utility sort of stuff that is actually still being used. Now go to the store and buy a razor. Get the clerk to unlock the display for...

I think you're right about the sweatshop labour issue. Now lets see if the prices go down. Probably not too many of those workers ever likely to buy anything new let alone any kind of a Cessna. There...

We have been buying 4H raised steers at their local auction for several years now. Money seems high, but when you consider it goes to a farm kid to pamper a bone headed steer and then show it at...

I haven't had any luck calling them so far, busy signal, but maybe they are like me and are on dial up with one line. Good thing ADSL is working at our office. I'll keep trying.

I had the same deal as you had and found out that I really had Airframes gear with AD shock struts which aren't totally compatible. the airframes shock struts are a bit shorter and will fix the...

Hello to all of the people that we met in Anchorage. All 22 of the group of Canadians from Fort St. John BC had a great time and hope to return. A trip to Valdez next might be in order. Anyone...

Hello.

In northeast BC and the Yukon you have Dawson Creek, Charlie Lake, Watson Lake and Whitehorse if you are following the Alaska Highway. You might have to get fuel in jugs at Dawson Creek as...

Hello. Two King Air 100 loads of us from Fort St. John, BC will be there. Hopefully there'll be a few stools left for us.

I don't know if there is a horsepower difference as I never flew this airplane in any other configuration. I flew another 150 with stock exhaust and a borer prop which didn't perform nearly as well...

Hello and thanks for the info, we'll keep an eye on that area. It was the muffler itself that cracked?

We just had the annual done and went through it quite extensively and couldn't see any cracks. Have you seen cracks in some of these?

Ron Sullivan's STC is the only one that I'm familiar with and it is two weld on tabs to bolt the belt ends to and a lightweight cross brace welded in the front baggage compartment floor. I sent the...

We have a Leading Edge system with 275 hours with no leaks, good fit and lots of interior heat and rear seat heat. Other than waiting a while for the STC I think it was a good buy. I think someone...

Hello Fireball. We fly in northeast BC at -40C on occasion. Out of hangar for tours and back in after. Went out Sunday at -22C after preheating overnight and just be gentle on things like anything...

Hello Mike.

I don't think you're a wimp. Anyone can live nearer the equator, you have to be tougher and smarter to brave the colder climates....... Or that is what I tell people who suggest...

Hello MVivion. I don't know the answer to your oil problem, but yesterday at -20C (-5F) with my 160 with Leading Edge Exhaust and F. Atlee Dodge rear seat heat installed, no defrost kit yet my...

I think show is shot in Squamish BC if I remember a hotel there is the same one which is named after a nearby mountain. Squamish is between Vancouver and Whistler BC. Explains great scenery. Could...

I went for a flight today and measured the distance between the bottom shock strut bolt on each side and it was 61 inches. The stock gear on one of the other PA- 18s that parks with us shows just...

I just measured my overall length of hydrasorb and strut center of bolt to center of bolt and it is 31 7/8" so if it is supposed to be 30 3/4" my struts must not be the right ones. Is there different...

Hello. I'll Try my first post on this site after being quiet and learning volumes. I have 3 inch extended gear which were purchased from F Atlee Dodge and I noticed as soon as they were installed...
