Can someone point me to a reference describing how to complete the "Description of Work Accomplished" section of a 337? I have seen maybe a dozen completed 337s and they appear to be all over the map! What I'm trying to do is draft a planning document describing what and how I'm going to do my...

Can anyone recommend a good forum for home machine work? Not the news group, that's a madhouse... Tony

Two weeks ago I had my fuselage sandblasted and coated with two-part epoxy. I had to get it primed prior to welding because it's going to be outside and I need the 4130 tubing to be protected. Prior to welding a tab, I used the torch to burn off the epoxy coating. I noticed lots of fumes. Is...

PHOTOS: N14 - August 14, 2009 Kathy Jaffe Challenge Some nice stuff as usual, but the shocker & catch of the day. was my first Phemon 100 biz jet...yes, biz jet at Flying W.

A month or so back, I asked about re-setting the reading of a standard aircraft tach to reflect the time the airplane spent with a temporary replacement. Unfortunately, as it turns out, there was nothing wrong with my tach...or with the tach cable. The tach-drive section on the engine itself...

CC'ing Your Heads... seems to generate more messages than any of the other head-related chores. Which is only fair since cc'ing your heads is one of the most important tasks in building a reliable engine. Some argue that cc'ing isn't necessary with stock heads since the spec for stock chambers is...

Looking thru 43.13, I see splices that use fishmouths and I see others where the outer sleeve is simply cut at a 30* angle. Can someone discuss the logic of why they use one cut over the other? - Mike

I was looking at the youtube video of the Cygnet and wondered if it was you that posted it?

Where can I get a picture of a Marchetti Sport? I am having all kinds of trouble translating my Google hits.

I’m trying to understand Figures 4.45, and have a question about a technique shown in 4.44. First, 4.44 – here they show fabricating an inner tube by cutting, reforming and welding outer tube material. Is there any reason this can’t be done with round tubing if one can’t locate the correct...

Our EAA chapter has received a donation of a Pulsar "Quick Build" kit that has languished in a hangar for several years. Looking at the materials, it is apparent that some of it has been exposed to sunlight coming through windows. The exposure is enough to discolor those areas that were not...
