Not this year...again. Count on me for WAD 2013, come hell or high water (both of which coincidentally perfectly describe Florida:evil:).

amen!!!!!!!
Crash survivability focuses on three main factors. Maintaining a survivability envelope which is usually done by engineering the structure to crumble around the passengers, not into them. Next is...
Get an Aeromatic field approval and you'd be a minor hero among us PA-22/20-150 guys. http://www.aeromatic.com/
Trolling Barnstormers tonight and found Cliffy's Yellow Super Cub. Say it ain't so.
There is a good book about Eielson called "Polar Pilot" written by Dorothy Page. It's out of print but you can probably find some used copies on Amazon.
A friend of mine had a free castering Scott 3200 as you described above. We took his Scott 3200 apart, ordered all the parts that looked questionable from Aircraft Spruce, and reassembled. Not too...
You're right. Google doesn't like it. Seems as though they were able to detect some malicious code being downloaded from that site (Steve Pierce: FYI, see cut-n-paste below). Now to get around...
I'm trying to read posts on SWP.org and I keep getting security alerts when I click on a thread. Any of you long-wing tandem guys know what's going on with the stubby wing site?
Jeff,
Thoughts and prayers.

Count me in!
I would never say that....well, maybe I would to Cliff. :o
Class act, Cloudy. Can't wait for Vol 4.
Try my home field. 82J Ferguson on the West side of Pensacola, a few miles east of the AL border. Grass runway and 100LL.
I highly recommend Peach State Airfield (GA2) about 20 or 30 south of ATL.
They have fuel, some services, a museum, a diner, and a nice grass strip with a lot of biplanes. Not sure about camping...
The rules don't require the builder to fabricate the biggest parts. They require the builder to fabricate a majority of the airplane. As long as cutting tubes and welding the fuse together (and...
Larry - Today we had light gulf breezes with sun and a temp of 62...I still wish I were in Maine.
Cliff - keep the dirty side down...and off the snow banks.
Living vicariously. Anybody going to the fly-in on the ice runway on Feb 26th?

I need some pix!
I wouldn't say these are the "best" books I've read but they are my favorites that I continue to re-read because they are good stories:
-Cluody's Vol 1 and 2 (I can't read vol 3 more than once)...
OK. I'll go out on a limb and maybe some feds will read this and learn something. Most likely they'll arrogantly dismiss it.
Forums like these enhance safety and open exchanges of ideas. If...
Glenn - Nice OTW! Don't see many of those flying around. Where's that one located?
Steve - Which downloads would you recommend for 2814Z? For those not familiar, it's a PA-22/20-150.
I'll echo what JP said. Computer sims are good at cockpit procedures and practicing instrument approaches, but at a beginner's level there is not enough fidelity in the simulation to help the actual...
I don't think the added weight had much to do with it. The weight was added forward of the cg so that would tend to help spin recovery. The added gyroscopic inertia would be minimal since the tires...
Recommend you get in touch with Steve Pierce. He has quite a bit of experience with Stewarts. Apparently the application technique is different from spraying poly or dope, but if done properly, is...
