Thanks for posting. Lots of cowboys and working class men!
A good friend and I flew his C-185 to Laurel MT to look at bulls in December. Great flight to MT, looked at bulls, ate supper went to hotel and spent the night. Had the continental breakfast, went to...
Is the drawing for the sweepstakes going going to be streamed? If so where would we find the stream?
thanks Brian

Built and installed this today. It is a control stop for the elevator, it is in the tunnel at the front of the cockpit. This one is the second I made, the first had a twist...

Made hoses for the brakes and mounted the park brake under the floor board then ran tubing to the outside of fuselage, they exit just behind the landing gear. The next day I...
I have a similar issue with a 180 project I have. The question is about the airworthiness. The 180 has current registration and an n number but is still in large pieces. What is the process to obtain...
That looks amazing and will even better in my hangar!
aktango, mvivion, anyone with info,
I drug out the stol wing cuff that came with the kit and there is half a stol kit. Well 2/3, wing tips and the outer leading edge wing cuff, but not all the...
The wings are a foot longer all at the root, so airleron is the same length as Cessna but the flap is a foot longer. If built with a wet wing you can get over a 100 gallon of fuel, I went with...
I apologize that my question may have been vague. I am looking at the EFII system because the fuel injection is simple, they build electronic ignition and incorporate a buss manager that will manage...

I have a question for the group. I am going to mount the battery in the boot cowl area similar to the Dakota Cub battery mount for super cubs. With the forward cg Cessna’s have anyway moving the...

With with the right wing nearly complete I went to work on the left wing again. I drilled off the tank bay skin and used the digital protractor to align the flap tracks...
Don’t feel to bad, I reinstalled my ground adjustable prop the other day, pushed cub out, fired it up and it didn’t want to move. So I increased the throttle, still nothing, went to full throttle and...
What is the difference that makes your engine mogas friendly?
So what is the difference between the certified and experimental prop, besides the sticker that says FAA approved?
With the airleron clecoed into place I slid the gap seals into the trailing edge of the wing. I aligned the seals as close to the airleron as possible, clamped, drilled, deburred, dimpled the top,...

With the flap installed it was on to the airleron. The guys ahead of me had built the airleron flat so I ordered another skin, but the cyclone skin and the Cessna skin...

Here are are some more pictures. We resolved the upload issue so the pictures could upload.
The drum on the left is the latch drum and is wound opposite of the lift drum. The...
Yes, when the door is open you look at the bottom of the door and if a section is lower than the rest, let the door down and move the bolt so the drum will be bigger when the door is up. Takes...
60022 I can only get this picture to upload been trying for half an hour. My drum is 7” across , and the center of the drum is 1 1/2” diameter. The secret of the drum is the bolt. You change...
Go Bill Go! Super stoked for another Bill Rusk build!:pop:
Your drums look to be of a fairly large diameter. I built our own strap lift door and it works great. The drums need to be as wide as the strap so the strap doesn’t wander off. If a neighbor has a...
There isn’t a brake on that motor. The motor shaft runs up through the top end and into the brake. Anything on the shaft that wraps the cable that looks like a brake?
