Just wondering!

Just wondering?

Hey Kevin, Thanks for another great write up. Man, you're sure bringing back memories of those "off" days when I was in my primary training. The frustration is completely understood. ;-) Just remember, you "might" have another hour or so of marginal flying and then that day will arrive when it...

That's one of the things I've "always" hated about preflight inspections. No matter how thorough I thought I was, I always felt there was something I'd missed. It's a learning process, Kevin, there will be things that slip by you. For now, that's what the instructor is for. Later, whether...

Hi Kevin, Great write up as usual! :-) Glad to hear the approaches are getting better. Knew it would come though, it was only a matter of time. That's got to be some kind of rush when it finally all comes together. Congratulations! Your first experience with settling with power sounds fun! ...

Hi Kevin, Great write up as usual! You've been talking about hoping to go solo in the past couple of posts you've made. I'd say you're almost there. This one sounds like the classic "backslide" in skill level right before everything comes together. Don't let it get you down! Also, you may not...

Wow, sounds like such a great day! Congrats Kevin! :-) Isn't it wonderful when everything comes together? Ok, so you had a sloppy one. The important part is that you reacted properly and didn't bend the bird. It's all part of the learning experience. Question: Maybe I'm reading you too...

Sounds great Kevin! Isn't it nice when everything comes together?! "Really" looking forward to reading about your check ride! :-D Fly Safe, Steve R. "The OTHER Kevin in San Diego" skiddz "AT" adelphia "DOT" net wrote in message ...

Hey Kevin, Great write up as usual. I particularly like the first paragraph. Normal and steep approaches are getting "boring" huh? ;-) It's not that long ago that you were kicking yourself for not getting them right. Now they're boring! bg It's great that you've got so many other folks...

That's an interesting one. Thanks for sharing. I'm curious why they can't account for the hours flown. The article indicates that they don't have data on past hours flown so they can't speculate whether or not the increase in accidents has anything to do with an increased number of hours flown...

I've acquired an HA-6 Carburetor part # 10-5045. I would like use it to replace the updraft carb on my 0320-D2J that is mounted vertically in my Safari. Is there a manual covering this carburetor? Does it require a fuel pump? Stu Fields Safari driver

Well, advancing age brings with it some clear thinking and some not so clear. I have purchased a Helicycle Kit and still own my Baby Belle. People with more than one helicopter that aren't in some commercial business are at least suspect. My wife is probably just patiently waiting for me to...

Have a project that needs 6 blades from the J-2. The blades need to be in flyable condition for the restoration of a rare McCullough tandem rotor helicopter. Any clues out there????

If an over weight pilot exceeds the recommended seat weight of his helicopter, will this affect undersling enough to cause an increase in the 2/rev vibration??? Does increasing G forces cause an increase in 2/rev?? Stu

The Golden West Airshow (June 12-14) is scheduled to see several homebuilt helicopters. Expected are Mosquito, Rotorway, Safari, Helicycle and possibly an Ultrasport. Good x-section. The Experimental Helo Magazine will have a booth... stu
