I still have some of the tools my grandfather, railroad machinist, gave me. And some specialized machinist's tools that a childhood neighbor,...

I have to admit I needed to look that up. I think I'll try it with the ice berg bunches of Canadice I have.

Yeah. I almost cried when my Binks 37 died. My Thorsen hand tools came from Mr. Craig in Rosemont Pa in 1957. Rusty, but I will die with them in...

Just realized Flying Dave that the response I provided in post #10 did not directly answer your particular question. Here's a more specific...

Yes, swivels and unlocks with the least amount of effort in my opinion. Never flown skis but works great on tight gravel bars with lots of obstacles.

Hope the Yard can fix you up if the o'ring won't fix it. My old blue Snap-On drill that I bought in a pawn shop 25 plus years ago locked up recently....

Spars are at my hangar in Arlington in excellent condition.

I received 3 spar blanks from Aircraft Spruce today in excellent condition. Around three weeks after I ordered them. Freight was less then $300.

If We had one my feet would likely be on it. Humm, maybe that’s why Nancy said we didn’t need one...

I bought an Atlas on eBay a few years ago. I really like it. It seems to make riveting a lot easier.

Hey Doug. If you see a yellow cub looking thingy (not Piper) with invasion stripes on it, don't shoot, it might be me. That is if you can stand a...

Let me know when you’re coming and I’ll give you the grand tour!!!!! I have a grass strip in Crawford where you can land.

No archery elk this year, a slow MN deer season too. Some health issues also slowed me down. Did manage this mulie and a muzzle loading doe. On to...

"This is a corner of Nebraska that people don’t know exists!" Oh I know it exists all right ! , have flown over it many times always think I...

Good work. How many hours did the first fuselage take vs the second one?

It is clear that something has changed. You are aware that the actual EGT number is meaningless? The only published EGT limits are TIT (turbine inlet...

Just closed the freezer’s with the winter taken care of, 257lbs of boned out Moose. Just the right size, any bigger I would have been buying another...

.....never mind. I thought the thread was about something else:-P

Mike, the article said 30 minutes charge for 30 minute flight "currently" (pun intended...)

Three systems for three axis', I like having a trigger on the stick to get the whole plane back right now. It's bigger than and above the transmit...

You work with any of the cold hardy varieties to make Ice wine with? Oh, and we had slowly built up a foot of snow on the ground but yesterday it...
