Question on ownership by
John
Seems to me an element of flexability would be required for this to
work, in addition to the money/piloting skills etc. If you can work
from home from time to time (telecommute), that will help you when the
aircraft goes down for maintainance. Also, what about thunderstorms
during the summer? ...

Where do marker beacon tones come from? Are they generated in the

Paul Millner
if he really got a new crankcase
He didn't say that... he just said it was replaced. Think "used by
airworthy". Still, a suspiciously low price, eh?

Advice on camping at Oshkosh by
Paul Millner
It would be most convenient for me to arrive on
Monday, the day before the show officially begins. I could arrive around
noon. The plane and I are IFR capable, so weather, unless truly horrible,
should not be a serious impediment. The question is, what are the chances
that the GAC area will...

ASOS by

Many ASOS frequencies in the Ohio area are being changed to the same
frequency(121.425). I find this bad since I usually tune in my local ASOS from

Extra fees by
Paul Millner
What is a flow fee?
Typically a per gallon fee charged by an airport operator to anyone flowing
fuel on their airport. Some operators even try to charge the guy pouring
mogas from 5 gallon cans into his 172. I've seen as low as a penny, and as
much as a dime... 3 to 5 cents is typical.
