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...

82/43 is what all the cool pilots run.8) DENNY

I added the cub crafters gap seals and did not notice any change. However, I do have a well rigged plane, VG's on the tail, and adjust my trim for...

So had a good day today. I was not planing to fly however, had a pilot come up from lower 48 looking for work, a friend gave him my contact. Nice...

Wait, are you guys saying that all the different red and white colors on my plane should match??? :oops: DENNY

Add that to the nose up trim I keep harping on it may just be the real deal. Some one go check it out and let us know if it works!:wink::wink::wink:...

If you read all the posts it is a total crapshoot on what seems to work and what does not. Flying daily/weekly does seem to help for lifter/cam...

Back in the day I was the Diving Corpsman on a salvage ship in the Pacific, always trying to get my guys to drink more water so they did not get...

Is the stick bent/in backwards? DENNY

The new Phillips stuff is basically just the Lycoming slick 50 additive used to prevent excessive cam/lifter wear. DENNY

I would blame 100LL use way before I would blame the oil. 100 LL has 4-5 X the lead in the fuel than the engines where designed for. Using...

Daammn all this time I have been saying I need to re-arch my tail spring because I fly heavy and screw up my landings (tail wheel first) I could...

Ya, my input is that setup is as useful as tits on a boar hog!!! Just saying. DENNY

All you need is a tracing of the arc on a new bottom spring. I don't have one handy but will volunteer any of our members with a new spring on the...

Thanks, it is just intermittent stuff. Everyone should just listen to my first post and we would all be fine:lol: DENNY
