Life is short, seize the moment. Buy the nicest plane you can afford whether you can justify it or not. Take a trip under dual instruction somewhere...

Our first plane was a Pacer, it was perfect fit for us and she loved sitting next to me. One day she got to fly in the back of my friends cub. It...

As long as there is a cabin, vacation, or party location to go to and the wherewithal to make it happen. While not perfect aMphibs (with an M) reduce...

On my Clipper, I’m putting the EarthX on the front side of the firewall. Got rid of the Piper exhaust and I’m putting a Sutton exhaust, but that...

Stewart, You are right, the pump turns on for 1 hour when initially plugged in then it cycles on and off based on the atmospheric humidity level....

Before you spray, don't forget to fill the weave with 3:1 Ekobond to distilled water by weight as per our manual. Marty57

That's insane! No way I could think that fast. I guess that's why I fly a cub.

The hole is not cut yet:) I hadn't decided where to put it since I was still fussing over where to put my battery:) Until today

I just don't see the opening in the firewall. It must be hidden close to the battery? If so, I would make a deflector just for safety's sake to keep...

I can't think of a tougher insurance environment, except maybe warbirds, than amphibious floats. The accident rate on those floats, regardless of...

Yes, I made the box and it mounts right below the battery there on the engine side obviously:).....are you thinking the battery will get too warm...

Are you going to install cabin heat?

This is what I did. I live under a class B umbrella where transponders and ADS-B out are required. So....... I am exempt. Recharged the battery every...

Here’s where the battery is going ....adel clamps on bottom mounts...aluminum angle attached w/adel clamps to hold the top across the vee and...

That is nothing short of ‘unbelievable’!! I spent the better part of the video trying to spot the glider. I can’t guess the skill needed to fly it...

Bumping this thread to provide feedback. Not bragging; Not claiming to be anything but an average Super Cub pilot at best. NOTE: Experimental Super...

All (but one) of the airline guys I know are GA pilots, who fly a lot-- usually they own a Skywagon or Cub of some sort (sometimes both). That's...

Bending Carbon Cubs isn't exclusive to airline pilots.

Hey. I am an ex-airline type. I no longer go from a J3 to a 757 on a daily basis. A lot of airline pilots do exactly that, and are good at both. A...

Deep GA background then move to the airline world, then buy/build hotrod Cub usually no issue. Most airline people, at least here in AK that I know...

Are there skis for a stearman? I can’t recall ever seeing one on skis. Bring it up to the Bowman ski flyin on the 13th, I’ll buy you a hot cocoa.

The PA 14 did come with dual controls. Are you asking why no certified planes are built this way now? Most people building the PA 14 knock-off...

FWIW, the two friends I use for BFRs and other recurrent instruction are both jet pilots. One's a senior 737 captain and the other a corporate guy...

I have watched several of his videos and I think the difference is between the experimental version and the STC version (which I think has the single...

It is in graphic design now and I’m hoping it will be out in three or four weeks. I added a third part to it

About 15 years ago, Maule introduced their M4-180V-- a round-tailed, 2 seat (side by side) taildragger. It was very attractively priced-- just...

That's a bummer. I bought a cargo net from them a few years ago-- they have an amazing variety of sizes available, for very reasonable prices. It...

Ole Kent is pretty legit. This my favorite. His Booby Flay beating chicken fried steak recipe.......https://youtu.be/BMu3rPI40wQ

Recent insurance inquiry: Very high time pilot looking at putting his 185 on amphibious floats. Underwriters response: We don’t care how much float...
