Folks: I am in the process of sealing up a plenum project. So far all has gone well using regular baffle seal and silicone P strip. However there are several places of extremely irregular shape that I cannot seal with the baffle seal or P strip. Some of the guys around my field have advised...

For a child's playground. The kids would enjoy being able to touch something special. (Or, if it takes too long, maybe I'll make it into a boat. ) Thanks. Mike

82UL was developed several years ago, to be easily produced from automotive fuel. Instead of being produce by only one or two manufacturers as 100LL is, 82UL could be made by any oil company. This should make it cheaper to produce. 82UL is NOT a replacement for 100LL. It is my understanding that...

Why not just build it full scale? G'day Ted. Now that is a good question! Here in Australia we are allowed to build and fly aircraft that have a take MTOW of 600 kilograms. We do not require a full aviation pilot licence to operate these aircraft so it is an attractive proposition to make a...

I had my closest simulation of flight in a quickie q1 yesterday. out doing a bienniel flight review in what I thought was a schmick cessna 150 aerobat. at 3,000ft we were climbing for altitude for a practise spin and we sat there cruising along with full rpm at best climb speed and attitude for 20...

Scroll down 3 or 4 items---the LED one--common ground

Calling on the group for advice. I have stumbled upon an O-320 off a C-172. The engine has 2780 since new and is timed out. Although when ferried from the south, on a 9 hour flight it only used 1 qt. I get the mags, engine, logs and new carb for $4000. Is that good? No storage. It came right...

I finally found a copy of the peanut scale Dyke Delta plans. Check your inbox! Enjoy. Richard

hello, i've just started buying & building relatively small rc planes, but i've started wanting to build more accurate wings for some of my increasingly larger / higher aspect wing design, particularly wings capable of holding fuel. i've concocted crude plans for framing, but i am unsure what...

Fr. Mike Ch. Eastham said Steph was under an umbrella contract & the labor contractor should have someone to cover for her---We Hope! I am to call him back this pm & see if he had any luck. Jerry

The manual says I can do it, but all I get is invisible planes! Believe it or not, I can fly them, but I can't see them. Is there some program I missed loading or do I need to get something referred to as g-max? All help appreiciated! I want to get a model of my full scale Corben Junior Ace...

I recently installed an EI FP5L fuel flow instrument in my Tri-Pacer. I would notice that at irregular intervals, it would reset it self. I'd catch the green Remaining LED flashing as it does after a power on self test. I could never get it to fail in flight. I pulled and prodded all the...

Anyone else using this routing? We'll be leaving MGW around 7:30-8:00AM on the 24th. One stop in IN.

Does anyone rember a windjammer aircraft? One is comming up at a local auction and I can't find any information about them. It's a highwing, two place, rotax powered taildragger.

I'm using Mozilla/Firefox instead of M$ Internet Explorer. I've also switched over to (free) Thunderbird, from using M$ Outlook Express 6.0. (So far I'm OK-happy with this combination) I've been reading these newsgroups with Outlook Express since 1998. I'm familiar with it and I like it. Comfort...

IIUC an antiservo tab works by deflecting a control surface in one direction so that the control surface then exerts a torque in the opposite direction. For example, suppose you have an airplane that tends to yaw to the right with the rudder and ailerons in their neutral positions. An antiservo...
