Just closed the freezer’s with the winter taken care of, 257lbs of boned out Moose. Just the right size, any bigger I would have been buying another freezer.
Just one word , I’ve seen tight chains cause the rudder yoke to break off. Steve Pierce has a video on setting up tail wheels that will give you all the answers you need.
-2 F yesterday morning but 33 this morning and raining. I don’t care for this , rather have snow. We had 2’ standing and need some real good cold, the ground and lakes aren’t frozen up yet. The Ice...
I haven’t really done many mods on it yet. I rebuilt the engine and put a new prop on. The rest I did was repairs of the flip over damage. I also changed the wing tips to the up sweep style as the...
Yes on meeting up and it is Doug, great guy.
We have one if not the nices one in existence, as I’ve been told be DPE that give ratings in the Bee. The heater has been rebuilt by the factory just before I picked it up in NC. My wife and I flew...
Hi Pete, didn’t hook it up, I’m not too happy with the placement of it with no bulkhead between it and my leg’s.
Could get the video to up load, sorry
Had the TwinBee out this morning, beautiful day but got a bit chilly without a heater.

I’ve have hyper-ther. Many times from cold water. I worked as a Hard-Hat diver year around in the Northeast doing Hydro Dam work and underwater construction and salvage. I’m here to tell you it’s no...
Did you look at Tiger Foam Kits, it’s a DIY spray foam deal that might work out for you.
I had a set of Fltlight 4000’s for my 185 and sold then before I ever used them and now wish I hadn’t. They were very heavy and expensive but everyone said they worked great.
LOL, That was one of the true classic’s!
Need about three feet deep to be safe, I’ll look at it this spring, getting late in the year for water landings.
Bill I can do without going in there, no problem, but this is a TwinBee which is a STOL plane. Also I have a PVT. LIC and over a 150 hours Flt. Time!
Doug if you get a recipe would you send it to me, we have lots of them around me.
Hi Farmboy, I’ve had the TwinBee into my strip, it’s a STOL plane, the only thing is the wing span is 45’ and the north end of my place at the time was only 65’
Olibuilt, do you have any way to cook them that’s tasty? I haven’t had good luck with them. All your Geese have moved down to northern NY for the winter it seems.
Wow, where were you guys? I’m flying the TwinBee tomorrow and may be able to swing by.
Here is a pic of my moose, just the right size for my wife and I.4553245532
Just finished up a Moose hunt in Newfoundland, saw 11 Moose in two day and shot a nice young bull. The racks a smaller, a 50” is like a 70” in AK but big bodied and good eats. Really liked the...
Large fire cracker in a paper bag of seed!
