Master contactor question by rich[_2_]
My homebuilt's master contactor is going bad. Sometimes when I turn it on it doesn't make connection. It's got 1700 hours on it, so I'd just as soon replace it. But the way the builder wired it, he's has positive power from the battery going through the master switch to the small terminal on the...

They put dimples in the clay, like a golf ball, and repeated the same test and got 11% better mileage. This again begs the question why don't wings have dimples, especially for...
