Washington requires proof of sales tax having been paid when you bring in an airplane or car. If you can't document that, you pay use tax here....

E2A & E2D are dynafocal mounts. I'm no expert, but don't think I've ever seen a SC with a dynafocal 320. BTW I was looking over a Maule MXT-180...

I used to have t mobile cell service, block-time bought $100 at a whack. They charged me $10 "local taxes" on top of that. I guess there's sales...

To elaborate a bit on my thread drift:

Mine is similar, except with a stock 470K. I had to repair a crack in the engine mount a couple years ago, the Lord rubbers were sagging in the...

Poked around on the Flight Radar app, apparently it only tracks 1090 ES ADS-B, NOT the 978 UAT variety that i installed. Which is good, i guess-- a...

Curious if youre running the orginal 470A/J mount (with the vertical rubber isolators)?

I downloaded FlightRadar 24 a while back. Kinda cool in that it's in real time-- you can see an airplane off in the distance & check what it is....

Applied for my rebate wed evening, sent the requested 337 documentation Thursday morning, and received a "check's in the mail" email Thursday...

The Port Townsend Aero Museum does great work. They're pretty busy but they might be able to slot you in. Better / quicker if you just bring the...

Flew my 30-minutes-in-rule-airspace ADS-B test flight yesterday. Got 3 green on the GAIRS report, so I applied for my rebate last night. Got an...

Just got our first frosty morning of the season here in NW Washington. 29 or so at my house this morning at dawn.

The tech support guy at uAvionix told me the misreporting was undoubtedly at the beginning of the flight, and was due to my old equipment...

Installed my Tailbeacon yesterday, about as easy as they say it is. Literally about 10-15 minutes to install & another 10-15 minutes to program with...

Yeah, I started reading at the top, then realized this thread was started 10 years ago. Wow how time flies! An aeromatic prop mighta been just the...

"Beat to fit, paint to match".

I always figured with the time & expense required to get an A&P myself, it was probably cheaper & certainly easier to just work with one of my A&P...

Washington State DOT-Aviation has a similar "pilot passport" thing going on. Dunno if they have an app, but they've distributed stamps for stamping...

I i insured thru Bill White for the first 4 years, then shopped around a bit & went with Regal out of Hillsboro OR last year cuz they came in a bit...

FWIW I just renewed the insurance on my C180, FWIW it's up about 7% from last year. A bit more than inflation but not an earth shaking increase.

I've heard something like this before, can someone clarify?

Steve can correct me if he's wrong but I seem to recall him test flying Dakota Cub's "Super 20"?

Yeah, but I seem to see a lot of comments about iffy grounds causing gremlins in avionics. Adding a dedicated ground wire to a rudder-mounted...

Now that's how a PP checkride should go! Sounds like the guy I did mine with. He didn't expect you to be an ATP, just know how to fly the airplane...

Hard to be sure from your photos, but it looks like maybe you've got a leading edge cuff -- Crosswinds STOL maybe? I think a stock length & wingspan...
