Ladd Gardner in Dallas. AOPA (that's never been a viable option in AK but I've heard pireps from guys in the lower 48 that are good) Falcon

That machine cycles automatically, right? Did your cycle time change when you enclosed it? Or is it just cycled by a timer?

If he doesn't have required documentation he should call his mechanic and fire him.

When I talked to Charly about -12 mods he had a relationship with Micro and used slightly larger than normal Micro VGs. I don't recall anything about...

So 25# lighter than my constant speed. Nice. So is 2350 your target or is that set course for break-in? One of my prop specification...

This thread is totally off track. Carbon Cubs aren't the problem. It's that damn legacy gear that causes accidents. I read it on the internet! :) ...

I'll be interested to see how that 3-blade works with the 390. What's it weigh?

I've been with Avemco for a long time with a few different planes. They were the easiest to deal with and had the best rate for my exp Cub, but the...

What do your logs say?

Gordon's link offers a great explanation of why the lower wing wants to tuck under. That's a very interesting video.

Penny Nixon flew the Supercub moose stall test flights in what, 1994-95? I don't recall Micro VGs being around back then. BLR had very little if any...

4 oz per 10 gallons is what the instructions call for. I added a quart to every 100 gallons in my bulk tank for years. I stopped a few years ago. No...

Current aircraft EI has variable timing based on manifold pressure but they lack knock sensors and a few other condition monitors that modern engine...

10 years ago that was a simple approval at ANC FSDO. Have you asked?

50 x 60 wouldn't be too big even with a 4 stall garage at the house.

FWIW, today's the day I need to dry the desiccant. The pumps ran full time for 6 weeks plus. Not bad.

25 years ago, flying low level up Wolverine Creek, the drainage that defines the NW side of Mt Susitna. In a Hawk XP so not clawing uphill but not...

Cessna 150 in cruise and the wake of an F-15 doing a very hard high-power turn right in front of me. He used me like a pylon. Cool view of an F-15,...

The Matanuska-Susitna-Yentna valleys have hundreds of small strips, most uncharted. The C-130 presence was something we got used to a long time ago....

Common in the Mat-Su area. At least now they only fly in pairs instead of flights of 5 and 6.

You'll need a reduction unit and radiator. Add those back in.

I don't know the answer to that. I have an overhead video of a Cub with slats landing. How the wing fabric flips from scalloped down to pillowed out...

Set it on top of the glare shiel with velcro to hold it. Drop a wire through the Vee brace hole if you need ship's power.

When enlarging the tank bays for Atlee tanks in a -12 you add full-wrap leading edges. The angle sounds like a good idea. FWIW. Cessna ribs are...

The big 6s are anything but light! Evinrude's Etec had a weight advatage but Evinrude is history. From the Mercury website-

Mike turned me onto this screwdriver a few years ago. Handy. Slower than typical drivers. Most broken and stripped screw problems are eliminated....

It looks like Buzzcola's metal is one piece outboard of the tanks? I've never seen that. No 90° flange over the upper spar cap. Maybe I just can't...
