I know this is not proper for this group, but I need to purchase some countersunk very small SS rivets. I need to connect 2 and three sheets of 20 ga. stainless. I feel there are more qualified metal working craftsmen here, as anywhere. Hence I ask. I would sure appreciate a link to a supplier...

Anybody know of a reference on this on the web, or (gasp) even in print? I know that there are some supposed advantages to this, as opposed to having a squared off leading edge which fairs in perfectly when the elevator is perfectly aligned with the stabilizer. thanks Ed Wischmeyer

Hey guys and girls, A friend and I would like to crawl some junkyards for inspiration, possibly parts that catch our eye, and frankly because we really want to. Are there still places around (let's say within a couple hours' drive of the LA area) that will let you wander and rummage? We're not...

I tried to make a block off plate for my O-290 engine to connect a remote oil filter- it worked except the oil pressure went from 90psi to 120psi- I am using champion ac filter ch-48108 & 1/2 lines- Everything is plummed right- (engine oil out to filter-in, etc) Whats different about the...

What a relief to find out that the accidents were not fatals. Initial reports always seem to come in worse than the facts.

Hi, Except BD-5J does somebody know if there is single-seat homebuilt minijet? Thanks Phil

Since I have no verified or observed data from which to work, here are the final suggested frequencies for the RAH/RAP group to use going to, coming from, and while on the field: FRS -- Channel 3 with no PL (no tone encoding) Amateur 2-meter -- 145.75 simplex no PL. Use the local repeaters...

I was going thru my images from Oshkosh 2004 and was hoping that someone could help me identify this aircraft. It is a high-wing, t-tailed, pusher. For the life of me I can not recall who makes it. I have posted an image of it here, http://zufalls.com/images/pusher.jpg This was taken as my father...

After installing a used GNS-430 in my RV-7 project, I'm noticing that the volume knob doesn't seem to be working -- The output is only at one level, and can only be altered by the headset's own volume control. I doubt it'll be loud enough for flight, even with the headset turned up all the way....

I'm considering ripping the curved tube out of an aircraft bank indicator to use an inclinometer (or clinometer) on a bicycle. There's a bicycle bubble level on the market but I don't think it's a good design. My question is, on aircraft bank indicators, why do they look like they are about 6"...

To All: Extrusions of every type are common stuff in airplanes but many homebuilders may not be aware of the fact the extruded shape usually receives additional forming. Extruded angle, for example, may be opened or closed by as much as twenty degrees (depending on the alloy). It is also common...

Hello. I just completed the last of the three written exams for my Airframe & Powerplant rating. So I no longer have an excuse to put off the oral and practical test! Any words of wisdom for how to best prepare for this test? Also, should I go for both licenses in a single O&P session, or study...

I'm removing surface rust on a 4130 fuselage prior to priming. Assume I'm in a place where I can't use my sandblaster. I need to get into the tight places of a cluster to remove surface rust. I can get pretty deep in the cluster with emery cloth, but there is the last 1/8". There are rust...

Is there an online source of downloadable CAD files for common AN hardware? I don't see any reason to redraw what I'm sure has been done many times. ========================= Leon McAtee

I keep looking at teh web site and owner's sites. I wish the cruise was a little higher and when you check out the full deflection maneuvering speed you have to wonder how stron it is. There is also the pegasthol wing with pressure actuated slats. Higher cruise but they have some kind of argument...

According to the NBAA website, there will be a reproduction Epps 1907 monoplane hanging in the enterance hall of the Georgia World Congress Center for the NBAA 2007. In fact, it should be there right now. Anyone going to, or at, NBAA 2007 in Atlanta? Anyone near Atlanta? Can you get me a photo or...
