Quaalude

the Mooney sitting on its rims with critters running in and out of it,

it get to this? How could someone let their plane ´die¡ this...

US pilots licences and photographs by
Sylvia Else
This is background research for an article I'm writing.
Can someone tell me whether the FAA (or other agency) retains a
photograph of people who hold private pilot's licences in the USA?

Torque and P-factor by
Marten Kemp
I'm a 200-hour private pilot and was wondering about
torque and P-factor effects in high-powered aircraft,
especially warbirds.
From what I've read they could be significant,
especially during takeoff and landing, and were a major
reason for operational write-offs. Narrow-track gear
were...

Avion Research - Panels by
170driver
Word to the prudent - If you are ever thinking of doing a panel rebuild
in your plane check out all others before going to A.R. Once bitten
twice shy!

L-18 Birddog aerobatics? by
Marten Kemp
So, writing a story where a bunch of young college-age
women discover some crated L-19s in a corner of a hangar.
I'm planning that they assemble them under the watchful
eye of a semi-retired pilot and A&P who can sign off on
the FAA paperwork.
Once the airplanes are assembled and flying, then...

Anybody take a small plane into LAX? Is it crazy? by
Bug Dout
I know a guy who flew his Ercoupe into JFK, so that it could be
disassembled and shipped to Europe. I think they wanted him to arrive in
the early morning hours, but he did it. If you still want to try it,
find the tower phone number and give them a call. You'll have to figure
out an FBO to keep...
