I will try to bring a crew with wife/girlfriends to help spend money so in town hotel would be great also. DENNY

George We have been talking about a fly out your way for years. I will try to make it happen this year! June should be best for weather correct?...

I know more than one ATP pilot that has told me slips are dangerous (they crab and kick in crosswind) How many times have you read that you should...

If I was to build a carbon fiber fuselage I would not follow the cub profile. A round tapered fuselage of CF would be stronger/faster. you could...

Pa 18-150 is a CAR 3 aircraft so the numbers might be different. DENNY

When I did my spin training in a Great Lakes Biplane we tried to enter a spin from the slip the top wing would fall level then go back into a slip if...

I would have to agree with the others, you can do math all day long trying to plug in all the conditions for the days flight or just get an engine...

I think by going into the slip you have lost some lift so you will increase you downward and vertical speed at the same time, so you are going to...

My CFI always insists we come to a full stop, retract flaps, and reset trim when we leave the runway with the 180. It is a very good habit to get...

We could use some hard numbers. What is the RPM DROP when you pull carb heat at 1800 RPM and 2400? If you have a 4 cylinder EGT/CHT how many...

I don't have the tabs on mine. Just used pop rivets into door frame (I hate pop rivets but just replaced what was there with old glass. One big...

I had a chance to look at this last year, it is a pretty slick plane. https://www.pipistrel-aircraft.com/aircraft/electric-flight/alpha-electro/ ...

Look at the top track, you should find one or two small screws in the slot. Remove screws tilt windows out and remove. DENNY EDIT Mike says it...

Depends on mission, I think they would make great trainers. It might just be the ticket for saving airports from the noise issue. Perfect for 1 hr...

I spent 1 1/2 years looking at cubs before I got mine. Having a new fuselage on a 1951 cub was a huge selling point. Nothing wrong with a properly...

I think Randy from Carbon Concepts has done something like that to he's flaps. DENNY

I would think it might help a bit with top end speed. It just turns a slotted flap into a plain flap. You will have better lift with a slotted...

Without the bar in place it is pretty easy to move the side of the fuselage in and out. I have had dogs get under it and lift it up when flying,...

I think Oratex is a good tough fabric and for some might be the right answer, however. Things to think about. The glue turns brown after a while so...

If you do not plan on flying it I would leave covers off the plane. One little bit of sand on the windshield cover will scratch the piss out of it...

I would pick a system that you have easy access to materials when future repairs are needed. Go to your local shops and see what they are using. ...

I think that is an excellent design. If you have a light onboard air source you could adjust for a low tailwheel on takeoff(better AOA) and high on...

I agree !!! With the 0320 cub I do the usual taxi run up mags/carb heat check. Once I turn Crosswind I pull carb heat, so I only have a 90 degree...

YOU GUYS ARE KILLING ME!! I am just trying to drink some whine and view some posts and not ya got me drunk thinking!!! If ya warm the carb, is it...

The clamp won't, however the front part of the step will (pod will have to be notched). The step itself can have interference with opening the pod...

They most likely did not put the tab on because everyone uses a gear mounted step in todays rebuilds especially if using a pod. Very good chance the...

I went for a ride in a wide body a while back, very impressed with the space. That is what I would look for in a machine meant to travel. DENNY

Check the engine mount rubbers. Mine had a lot of sag at 1,000 hours. I gained 3 mph when I put in new ones. It is a thrust line issue. DENNY

Speed wise it is about 2 1/2 - 3 mph per inch of pitch. So a 44 is going to be faster than a 43 at 2400 RPM. It does not sound like a lot but if...
