www. supercubproject.com. The best one I've seen, and run by one of our own.

A number of years ago I attended the 50th anniversary reunion of my father's WWII B-29 bomb group. It was an incredible experience. I mostly sat in the back and listened to the conversations...

While in Hood River, be sure to go to the WAAAM air museum. It's one of the best small air museums I've ever seen. Nice folks as well.

They need to be removed to check tire pressure and they are outrageously expensive.

I had a friend rig up some fireworks (sorta like a mortar) which included a pack of the cremains. We referred to the launch as " going out in a blaze of glory". He thought about offering the...

Very nice job Matt. Are there any issues with leaving the rear tunnel area covered, rather than open as original? I understand and appreciate the increased floatation, but I wonder about the...

Yep, surprised me too! Musta been that 1380 HD bungee that was too much for it. Ever since, I've borrowed a bungee master when I needed to change bungees.

The box beam square tube peeled apart below the hoist hook. It came apart like torn tinfoil. The hoist wasn't mine- I think the owner tossed it in the trash rather than trying to get a replacement...

Tried this method a few years ago with a 1280 HDand 1380 HD bungee. The harbor freight engine hoist main beam broke before the bungees seated. It was a little exciting when that happened. ...

Ain't that the truth! It doesn't take too many weather events of staying out all night trying to keep the airplane in one piece that the hangar becomes so nice. So, Mike is this one of Dan's...

Cabela's has it too.

I've been tempted by one of these ultra lite cots. They are a little pricey, but I've heard they are real comfortable - anybody tried them? 1008710088

Used to see similar gravel guards on the nose wheel of B-737s when they flew into Unalakleet (before the strip was paved).

Stewart,

Great description of hunting Kodiak (or many places in SE AK). My Kodiak deer hunting stories are mostly similar - except the part when you get back to the boat and discover that your...

I spent a few days flying with Brian last year. What a hoot! He can do some amazing things with an airplane. Years ago he used to do an airshow act with a supercub called "The Acme Duck company". ...

Jim,
Hope these are what you need.

Jim,

Attached are a couple of older shots of the hand operated version (yellow). The motorized one is built the same way, only used square tubing instead of round. When the snow stops, I'll...

For some of us retired folks with more time than money, necessity becomes the mother of invention. This towbar started life as a rear tine tiller. After some surgery with a sawzall and a welder it...

Ed,

I've used the firewall with a plumb line and the rudder hinge line on the vertical stab when I couldn't find the reference marks on the door frame.

Not meant as a slam, just thought it ironic that they built floats in the land of very few lakes. Would be sorta like building snowshoes in Florida.

Weren't PK floats built in New Mexico a few years back (Devore Aviation?)

When inbound to Merrill I used to always report "abeam Bryant" on initial call up to MRI. It was bad enough scanning for traffic without the necessity of another frequency change. Probably couldn't...

Kerm's quick start. Yeah I had one for awhile. Even used it a couple of times without burning down my airplane. Soon as I could afford something better, I took it down to Stoddards so they could...

Last month we had a pretty normal fly in here in Coeur d'Alene. Yesterday morning I saw something a little different when I drove over to the hangar. Seems like the Citation Jet Pilots organization...
