Ha! The drive back to the airplane didn’t allow for that.

I should have taken the afternoon off

I save my most embarrassing moments for crowds of peers. Amazed and lucky I didn’t wrap that cowl cover up in the prop. Who knew my cowl wasn’t black?
Quite a WTF moment.


Transmitted from...

Leaving the "Twitchell Lake Slushie" video.
Watch the skis. Overflow is everywhere this year.

Weird, but on my computer I have to...

I'd be pleased with a plain ol ascender...

Long gone from the news. The Ascender was built, two place side by side single engine, and just as awesome, but had an incident in an Alaskan lake. Recovered but I’ve heard no news since sadly. ...

Yup.
I was impressed until I worked on one. And then another. And another. And now I really dislike them.

(Just to clarify, the mail truck reference is in relation to the Grumman brand, which...

It’s another fad for the GA geek crowd. Just installed one of these in a Grumman Tiger. No idea how well it works, but good place for it, in a plastic mail truck.

Jay you are correct, all angles, field of views,etc is all done in edit. (Literally everything)

So the advantage is also the curse. As you see in the first video above I had no real idea what I...

Is it still available? Know a kid looking.

Ps - there is way better footage out there but if you’re curious here’s the first footage I took with it, and the second link is footage of coming back from Phoenix last weekend. All video footage...

My GoPro 2 or 3 still works as good as the day I got it, although I hardly use it anymore. My phone takes better video (iPhone X is a camera with an integrated phone) and is more handy.
The nice...

Some followup on the rudder post issue.

Well, some of us did Glenn. But not all of us. :)
This current “storm” has provided Nuisance snow so far. Less than an inch. Hard on equipment.

Dave, as a point of reference mine is blocked off and with the cold last saturday I saw 136 as a high. Going to have to insulate it soon. lol.

With an overhaul in 1999, might have taken 22 years.

The guy's going to take it to the shop and remove the accessory case and see where it goes from there. I would not have thought you'd see metal in the screen from the elongated bolt holes unless...

Tom, did you not see the reasons why we didn’t? Lol. And no, setting it on fire wasn’t a good solution either. Lol. But thanks for the suggestion. :)

The owner did take a quick look upon...

So it’s a C90-8, not sure why I assumed it was a 65.
In the -8 accessory case I assume they are the same - crank gear is 4 bolts into end of shaft?
More likely the shaft broke or the bolts came...

Good questions Pete. And while most of this is simply to advance my diagnosis skills, I enjoy the exercise of whittling down the options until few remain.

We pulled the prop through and found...

It’s not a fuel issue. I don’t even know how someone would come up with that idea based on the info provided.

I don’t believe the mags or cam is turning. We may find out soon as they will be...

A friends 90-8 stopped running today as if mags were shut off. No sputter, no cough, no change in power, just off.

He landed safely.

On the ground, we discovered that the impulse couplers...

Pete, I’m not sure an inspection plate would qualify for flight level, side level, and somewhat rigid...
But wingtips work great for those that have them.
