I am interested in what you determine to be the advantage of the 29" bushwheels other than the obvious weight savings, if it really does reduce rocks through the prop as you suspect I may...

I thought they had to have eyes in the back of there head to avoid the ones coming from Willow!

BTW just bought a house on Wasilla lake, the cub will be on floats all summer!

Dale

Point well taken

The reason for the upgrade is so that I can file if I choose to with a higher degree of comfort and more options (GPS approaches). As a rule I won't file single engine IFR...

Stewart and Dave, valid comments about the paint jobs that Willard has done, beautiful work. It was my understanding he was done and I haven't seen anything up here to compare to his work. If I am...

I have finally decided to take the plunge and pull one of my KX-155 nav/coms and CDI and replace them with a GTN-650 and new CDI. This will be done this spring and I am considering a paint job at...

Sounds like a good time. I took 2 weeks off to catch up on my flying been working all winter. I look forward to making it this year. Just recently bought a house on Wasilla lake so it is...

Sad news, condolences to the families.

Stewart

it doesn't have the cold weather kit, thanks for the link. I will have to try it..

The only thing I can add to Stewart's comment is that my EU2000i needed to have a box placed over it while it was running at -30 with a little breeze in order to keep it running. It would always...

2nd the Zulu's!

Thanks for the invite, I went back to Anchorage for the holiday. Back in Skagway about the 10th. Merry Christmas to all!

I am heading to Skagway again on Sunday, no I am not bringing either plane this trip. It has been blowing 40 plus there for the last 2 weeks or so and that isn' my idea of fun in that canyon. I...

Rubbing's Racing :lol:

I would also like a copy of the float kit drawings for the 55 C-180 as I want to install one this winter.

Thanks

Thanks for clarifying this, Kinetic is the term I was looking for. Just been too long and haven't had to do the math or use the terms.

After reading this I think you need to redefine your question. What you really need to determine is stored energy, I remember something from a class I took one time about the effect of stored energy...

Twice what your worst case estimate is, then add 25% for the things you "just gotta have" :lol: But IT's WORTH IT

Stewart

I am glad you resurrected this thread, it has been informative. I have a new to me 55 Cessna 180 with Sportsman cuff. So far I only have about 30 hours in this bird and it is a dream to...

Where is George???

George

Both birds are in Fairbanks, I will be back at midnight on Monday, when do you need a ride?

George

How can I carry my Supercub as an external load for the C-180? :roll:

The Sag has been incredibly low, though it did come up today. The john had very little water in it when I flew it last week through Anaktuvak, lots of gravel bars. The same could be said of the...

Looks like me and the spotted cub will still be in bare flanks until the first of November. If you get up this way, give a holler. I see that bright red torch cub parked on the pond.... retired...
