If anyone would like to donate to a fund to help Debbie, send me a PM and I’ll send the address and info of a neighbor who’s handling it.

Maybe the worst mis-information post I’ve ever read. Mackey slats improve the wing, no question. Keller flaps lower the useful AOA, no question. If...

Just got a message from a friend. A factory 0-470 is $60K. $17K for a core. 12 months delivery time. Holy sh-t. I dream about building another plane...

Never heard of Experimental being part of the label. Some tires were produced prior to having a TSO or PMA approval but the absence of the approval...

Finally back home and thought to check. My actuator runs my trim from up 4° to down 6°, so very similar to your plan. I’ve never heard owners of...

You should consider a Safety Trim. Timeout protection and two speeds selectable from the panel. I use full nose down trim for takeoff. I’m on the...

My Cub has the upper longeron on top, too. With a simulated load of a tail hit with a load my uppers bow, and with mine they bow downward. Being...

Kindasuper, have you done any actual testing of your tail section’s flex at full weight? I’m curious about how you chose your baggage door size, too.

My extended airframe-slats-big Pstol flaps Cub requires using the full range of trim on every flight. Electric trim is an important addition...

Big boy Cubs have pros and cons. With slats and Pstol flaps you’ll quickly appreciate electric trim. My linear actuator works great, by the way. No...

Use it as an opportunity to learn. Ask your DPE. Lights burn out. It shouldn’t be a game stopper.

Yep, auto texting when I took off and landed based on speeds I set. Wife clicked on the text and it showed a satellite view of where I was. Any time...

Joe, drop by and try my Rev on for size. Very roomy in width and height.

If the elevator bungee is broken wouldn't aft stick become easier?

I’ve had an Inreach for years and will use it as needed. ADS-B is the real game changer in tracking. Neither matches the features Spidertracks...

Aerocet allows 3190# when the Kenmore kit is installed. I doubt Kenmore shared any data. There was a time in my young life that I thought the...

Add 300# on the nose and see if that levels it out. You're approx 800# under the typical weight that suspension is designed for.

Crash’s test used GPS ground speeds, not IAS.

Too small. Good pixel density doesn’t do much for old eyes. It’s like buying a $20K home stereo when your tinnitus is so bad you can’t hear a police...

I figure Kenmore added the 2960 reference because that's what the late model TC listed for 180s. Path of least resistance? The whole STC was sort of...

It’s up to the installer to determine compatibility of multiple STC mods.

My question is whether the elevator travel is restricted or the elevator response is diminished, making the pilot wish for more travel. Big...

Given where you install tail VGs? They energize the elevator.

The OP needs to describe his -12. I’m guessing it’s got a 320 on a long mount?
