New Holland TC-30 w/backhoe and loader. Very handy tool. Had an old Kubota prior. Taught my nephew how to drive a stick with that tractor. Fond...

I did. 8# of short ribs, avocados, fresh tortillas, etc so we can feed Barbacoa Tacos to our guests who come over to watch Texas A&M vs LSU (I LOVE...

No ski flying until late February-ish. I still need to figure how to attach to TK-1 gear but I think welding Trick Air brackets can be done,...

Thank you for the disparaging comments. It reinforces everything I’ve come to dislike about the website. Mike was right. Social media really does...

If you can’t tell a good Cub from a bad one by looking at it? Hire someone who can. If you want to know how good a Cub flies? Let the seller demo it...

Bivy INSIDE the bag? Would that be a bag liner? I use bag liners for all seasons mostly to keep my sleeping bags cleaner. For a bivy? I've had a few...

Both apps are great. Which one you prefer usually comes down to which you’re familiar with using. Like a Garmin GPS it takes time and practice to...

Sil tarp, parachute cord, and trekking poles. Wrap up in the wind, make a rain shelter, or add some totanium stakes and make a tent. Good for day...

Sure. Doing **** wrong on an airplane usually works out, right? Have at it. I had the chance to buy the right thing or wrong thing. Easy decision.

Headlamps. Book nerd or wild land wonderer. Always useful.

Best. Combo. Ever.

A 37° flaring tool is $125 from Spruce. Simple to use and pretty much fool-proof.

Hey Scooter, you musta been crazy to buy my -12 from what these guys say. Go figure. Or me for buying my 180, or the XP before that!

Eagles understand gravity. When they perceive danger they can go down faster than up, so they dive. I never fly under an Eagle if I can help it. I’ve...

How many inquiries have you had since you posted an interest in selling? That’s the best way to sell. Let it be known you’re considering it and let...

Thanks for clearing that up. I haven't seen a swan for a month at least. It's -11* this morning so no surprise. I have had a very close call with a...

I sold my first airplane to a guy in the lower 48. He was coming to Anchorage to pick it up and pay me the next day. His instructor, a guy I had...

Your plane will have a very good power to weight ratio. Probably very similar to mine. Don’t get too hung up on your prop size. Until you get...

Put 6” gear on it. Every ski pilot I know would prefer that. My prop is Whirl Wind’s most aggressive and it’s only 80”. I have a crane scale....

Draco comes to mind. A couple of other social media stars, too. Interesting.

Thank you for the photos. If anyone has attached a penetration ski install bracket to TK-1 gear I’d appreciate a pirep.

If the snow is soft enough for the skis to sink it isn’t likely to do anything to the prop. And I don’t think the prop clearance takes any ski...

Not available in AK yet. Or where I am in TX. The website says late 2022.
