The 'rule of thumb' has been said to derive from the belief that English law allowed a man to beat his wife with a stick so long as it is was no thicker than his thumb.

Very few non-eatable things smell better than av gas. Burnt jet A is the only thing I can think of that might be better.

My son and were at your place last summer looking for a spot to park my 185 for a couple hours. You were very helpfull. I will most likely drive over from Big Beaver International Airpark,...

I just have a couple questions:

Will there be float tie down space? (you are within walking distance to the lake)

A four inch square piece of aerodynamic cardboard between the vent and the “V” tubing works well, is found easily at most grocery stores, installs without tools and best of all requires no STC or...

I will trade you my stock wings for your wings.

PM me for details

Many years ago a friend gave me a book on how to fix your Volkswagen. A chapter in the book was how to hot rod it up. That part of that chapter read;" if you want your VW to perform like a Porsche,...

I think it would be a cool thing to watch. Be sure a video of the panel showing the tach is made. I bet that a 0320 would go over 5000 RPM before it started coming apart and would most likely do it...

They spin them and remove most of the tread. to lighten them up and make them less likely to pick up rocks

I have owned gar-aeros 29's, 26, 29,30, 31 (radial and non radial) and 35's. For what I do 35's are the best no question in my mind. I am not a good pilot so am unwilling to push 31's to the extreme...

I think the diff is about 12 lbs as I recall

I have one of those cots. It is great. Very well made. Only issue I have is being so close to the ground, you cannot use it as a place to sit very well. Kinda spendy but unlike most airplane items on...

In addition to the mostly correct information already posted you will find that a ND is lighter and stronger. That is why allot of folks use ND to build up competition motors. Nothing wrong with a...

I think about mine every time the wind blows, it snows, or I fly in the winter.......

How did I do without?

"The question I'd ask is this: Where do you plan to operate where you'll need BOTH big tires and skis?"

Some of the best flying in South Central Alaska is in the spring on wheel skis with large...

Having owned several 0320/0360 type engines I can say I have never seen one that did not spit up the top two qts when filled to 8. They all stopped at about 6.

I too add 1qt at just below 6 and...

Well, being that I have had a couple of both 12 and 14's I would have some correction/addition to these comments.

A 14 is five inches wider at the panel than a 12, the landing gear/strut attach...

Alaska Wing Covers

Wiggy's

Had them both. The Wiggy's cover is the best at being warm, but spendy. The Alaska Wing Cover folks are wonderful to deal with, and you cannot go wrong with them.

I saw her at Dans Aircraft yesterday afternoon. How does the tail grab hoops work with the prop spinning?

Of course. His death (assumed) is tragic. A great loss to his friends and family. I am sorry for their loss. Facts are what they are.
