Spent some time the other day looking over a Super Dooper ALC undergoing construction down on the Coast. 210 HP, constant speed prop, glass panels,...

I sent a pitts to Australia last year. I welded brackets on the inside walls of the shipping container to mount the wings using the front and rear...

Steve, Where do you source the grade 8 washers? I want to make sure they're really grade 8 and not some knockoff. The ones at McMaster seem larger...

I only have about 3 hours in a Super Legend so I can't really speak much about it. I've got about 40 hours in AL3's so far and it's such a great...

Don't worry. Steel adel clamps work well even after welding and paint/powder coat. Web

LOL. Just so you know, I ended up spending a hour researching ELT mounting requirements since I'm welding tabs too right now. Not on my plans.

yup, tabs welded in and a mounting plate fabricated and powder coated.

I saw no difference in temps. I am running a 12" spinner. I am running an 0320 with 10-1 compression. On floats on an 85 deg. day my cyls. run around...

thanks! I had the same thoughts while I was planning out the fin, front will be attached permanently and I think I'll even weld it in the tail post....

I don't see a need for the fin to bolt on. Piper did it because that same fin was used on almost all their rag and tube airplanes. If you somehow put...

How are your cylinder head temps with the Sensenich ground adjustable?

I gave one a short time ago on this site in another thread. I ran the sensenich on wheels, skis, and floats and then sold the borer. The pitch I...

started to layout my vertical fin and came up with something I think I'm happy with. I went bigger all around particularly going forward at the jack...

That's what on/off switches are for. Keep each light/system on it's own control switch and choose what to turn on or off and when to do it. Great...

A big mash of the like button on Kevin’s post! Light em up! Kurt

Just look at the shape of the blades. A discussion of the aerodynamics involved would take a book. Let's just say it is obvious that a lot of...

How much travel, as measured at the shock itself?

I spoke with Sensenich yesterday on the availability of their ground adjustable composite prop. They told me they recently had been given FAA...

Thank you fellas!!! Sent from my iPhone using SuperCub.Org

It’s overkill until you’re are flying around a congested area where more people than not have their heads down twisting knobs on their video game...

Don't forget that it's the mechanic's name that goes in the logbook. Each individual mechanic has to decide what he considers airworthy. It's just...

I have a 185C project that we took over as a "custom" build that fell flat, has about every combo of light mods I can imagine previously partially...

From the perspective of a Skywagon guy..... 29" Air Hawks on 10" ABW wheels can be run pretty low on pressure with ABW's improved bead. Not Bushwheel...

Yes, change them! I had my bolt that holds the head onto the spring fail while slow taxi. Low time and no rough use. Kurt

Do you have the tabs for the ELT in? DENNY
