From the perspective of a Skywagon guy..... 29" Air Hawks on 10" ABW wheels can be run pretty low on pressure with ABW's improved bead. Not Bushwheel...

Do you mean 29" Air Hawks?

Interesting that yours are 6# lighter than mine in the pic on the previous page of this thread.

I'm sorry to hear about your struggles. I'd think MGL could diagnose your problem from your description. Side story- I was struggling with a function...

I know several folks who were affected by the weather last week and some lost mist of what they owned. None has asked for anything. Your comment is...

Wife face timed this evening as she got back to TX. 75* and lovely on the back porch. Texas winter. Still cold and slick here in AK!

My Atlas shoes work great. Too great for current conditions!

Funny you say that. I'm thinking of buying some smaller, more maneuverable shoes this week. The snow in the valley this year is layers of snow and...

I don’t understand your EFIS display in the pics. What MP are you seeing?

I’ll admit I’m curious about your prop. Very interesting.

My house and the daughter’s house did fine. Not a single issue between us. Our offices didn’t fare so well. Somebody turned the water off at the...

What cruise speeds are you seeing?

I haven’t bought any 31s for almost 15 years so I can’t say. Maybe Crash Jr will chime in.

A mounted 35 w/ rotor is 59.4#. A mounted 29 w/ rotor is 40#, so a 31 should be 43#. A mounted 29” Air Hawk is 50#, in case anyone wonders.

A buddy disassembles, packs, and reassembles aerobatic planes for competitions abroad. He packs the containers as if they may be laid on the side or...

Funny like a couple of summers ago in AK when temps were in the 90s for two weeks!

All the overhead plumbing I’ve seen is PEX. Give it some air space and all’s good. Rinnai water heaters on the outside wall? Different story. I think...

Strategically placed? Turn the water off and open the petcocks on the exterior. Problem solved.

I like that clip. It illustrates why gear bolts get bent. The deflection and deformation of the tires at takeoff speed is impressive.

Here's Adam. This looks pretty benign because of the suspension! https://youtu.be/TpvXNPMhVYQ

Adam, put your video up. That one's pretty impressive. Not many guys will do that with their planes.

Clearly TX has capacity for hot summer weather and full-on air conditioner use so we've wondered WTF as my house has been on a one hour on/6 hours...
