I'm Always thankful for this thread. We are all human. Lots to learn and re-learn. We can brief the daylights out of the charts, but still lack the big picture, or loose the big picture with a...
I'd like to add to this good advice....Also try to run the magnetometer wires away from your strobe/Nav light wires. For example, I ran my Nav/Strobe wiring along the rear spar and the Magnetometer...
Kook;
I have no experience with the AV-30, but have with other installations. Generally a remote Magnetometer gives the DG its compass heading information. No drift is experienced with a...
A perspective on the CheckList. But first some Nomenclature is needed. let me call it a "List". For example, A "Before Take Off List".
I suspect the FAA wants the List to be performed as a...
I wonder Is it required to pay that high premium for the whole year if 100 hours was flown off in two months? I wonder if the premium might be immediately adjusted when the rate reducing milestone...
I've often wondered if this is the airport that Ernie Gann included in his book "Fate is the Hunter". It was War Time flying of civil air transport DC-3 cargo to England through northern Canadan,...
I imagine moving even a mile exposes an airframe to very high risk. Few do it often, but to be good then experience is nice. My default logic of "I think it will be OK" would need to be...
I deleted my post right after I posted it, but you caught me....
What I meant to communicate is the Companion would be good for "Pancakes with the Wife, me, and a couple of dogs" (the Five is a...
Thanks! I will power mine from the main bus to ensure no power draw when the battery master is off.
I just saw that Sporty's has a cigar lighter plug in unit with both old and new USB receptacles,...
I am not a tech guru. I have a son who is though. He taught me that if I install the typical USB plug (that I always try to insert upside down) that has been around since about 1996 into my Patrol...
Do you want the photo Jim? If so I can send it to you. Its 11x14. My goal in this is to get the photos to folks who have an interest. If you don't take it it will be sent to the owner of a P-35A...
Regarding the Bird, Thanks for the help. I'll send out this photo I have to the owner of N914V.
What are your thoughts on the P-35 vs AT-12 when comparing these? It looks to me like the AT-12...
One of the key words that DGA shared which might be interpreted in a number of ways is Proficiency. I believe the FAA allows you to stay proficient in your EXP exhibition aircraft. So if the...
We have not identified the aircraft in post #6 yet.
Boy, those two are real similar.
I'm keeping an open mind, but for now sticking with the P-35. This is due in part because Wikipedia showed the P-35 being used by Sweadis air force, and the...

Web That helped. Seversky P-35...about 1935. First all metal single seat pursuit aircraft. Seversky became Republic in 1939. First time hearing about Seversky for me.

That has a nacelle like a P-36, but the gear on this photo does not twist as it retracts like internet photos I see of the P-36.
A trove of aircraft photos somehow fell into my lap. I don want them, but someone might. It looks like a professional photographer from the 1960's or 70's took them maybe at an early EAA national...
When my boys were in Scouts the Pioneering Merit Badge taught some basic splices of rope. The first photo below is called a short splice. It might fit through a pulley. A long splice would be the...
I'd like to expand a bit on this.
From certificated Lycoming O-360 (only, not io-360 or 390) documents I found that they call out
Engine C/R - Octane/source
O-360 9.0:1 - 100LL...
It would be cool to gather some data on sound reduction.....like measure the sound intensity before and after each product and area was modified. A chart with sound reduction, weight gain, and cost...
