I'm having a hard time figuring out your situation. When you went to look at the airplane, the seller told you it was promised to someone else......

About 25 years ago, I put my first airplane (stock c150) up for sale. A guy got ahold of me, and gave me a sob story about it being too tough for...

I agree that this is certainly possible, but... does anyone here personally know of a case when that has happened? A guy on my airport built an...

I assume MOSAIC is an acronym...what does it stand for?

FWIW this website might not be what you need right now, but it's pretty interesting. Sort of a "what fits what" all about continental 4 bangers. ...

This is what makes me wonder why some people paint their airplanes the way they do. Camo is so things will blend in-- the last thing I want to do...

If I understood him, apparently the standard practice at Jack Brown's is to set the altimeter to zero even though the seaplane base is at 140' ASL....

I didn't realize you were keeping it in the nosedragger configuration. Seems like there's lots of trashed / derelict 150's around-- it might be...

I've heard a lot of reports of leaking wet wings on later model Cessna's. One later model 182 on my airport has had the tank(s) resealed more than...

Ditto. I agree about the radio, I was surprised to see McSpadden suggest that maybe it was time for Jack Brown's to use ADSB, yet he didn't say...

The Tx Taildragger STC was marketed by Custom Aircraft Conversions, then Aircraft Conversion Technologies, then finally was purchased by DelAir. I...

I hard-wired in a couple mini/micro USB connectors I bought off Amazon for my ADSB-in and my tablet. They're in use every flight- no static. I also...

I double-checked my 53 model, no rivet. I looked in my 1962 & earlier maintenance manual, there was no mention of an indexing rivet in the...

I used to own a C150/150 taildragger. People like to call every C150TD a "texas taildragger", but mine was converted using that stc, it also had...

What year did they start doing this? I'm pretty sure there's not such a rivet on my 53 model.

I just re-read "Flight of the Intruder" and "The Intruders", Stephen Coonts' first two Jake Grafton novels. Both excellent reads, with good...

Having talked to someone who went through the getting-an-stc process, and was repeatedly assigned new hoops to jump through while doing so, I can...

As pointed out by someone else, a "gps interface" would seem to require an external gps signal. They kinda gloss over that, probably not by...

From the Spruce website page on this elt: Built-in GPS Navigational Interface (NMEA 0183 or RS 232) So I guess no internal GPS. Which would be...

Any suggestions as to the most cost-effective 406 elt's?

Thanks Amy!

The gravel deflectors (and mud flaps!) I've seen look like they'd be great at preventing damage to the tail feathers-- but they don't seem like...

If you're talking about N505WC, which Doug Jackson did a video about, the performance of that airplane in the video is super impressive. I've...

Per the attachment in post #2, C150/152's will be competing against 180/185's etc in the touring class. That seems fair.....

Curious as to the weight difference between steel and aluminum?

Don't forget the paint brush -- "beat to fit, paint to match".
