Is there somewhere I can view the results of all the CAFE races?

Hi All, I am trying to design a webpage that will calculate fuel consumption for common passenger aircraft (mostly Boeing and Airbus models to start). My guess is that the key variables would be distance traveled, aircraft type, and (as a proxy for weight), percent full. I know other variables...

A recent thread on what a person with an FCC license would have to do to install/calibrate/repair/adjust radios led me to do the research that I generally wind up doing once a year when this thread comes around again. Let's talk about the plain old airframe mechanic ("AM") and the feller with the...

For purposes of a fiction novel I'm working on, I need to know if an old Grumman Goose could use fuel found at a marine refilling pier (mogas = auto gas, not diesel) instead of the usual avgas. It is only needed for one trip (not permanently) and hopefully not cause "major" damage to the P&W...

Hello everyone, I haven't been reading this news group to long so I'm not sure if it's ok to ask questions of this nature here. I'm searching for zip-cord (aka: mono-cord, speaker wire, shooting wire, dbl hookup, rainbow cable, ribbon cable) specifically looking for solid copper, 26 gauge (Smaller...

Do you know which model of aircraft this came from? http://remote.kiwi.gen.nz/ArtificalHorizon I'm a geek, I bought this, I was going to wire it up as a geek-toy but upon looking at it, it's way too cool / old / delicate for me to muck around with. I don't know anything about it's history, it...

I am planning on doing my Private Pilot Licence but have a quick question. Is there a minimum timeframe that all of the flights/written exam/flight test must be completed in. I recall reading somewhere that you have 24 months after the application for licence to complete everything, or is this...

Does anyone have any memories of the Canberra WV787, an aircraft used by the MoA as an Icing Tanker Aircraft, and by the Army Department of the MOD as a Biological Warfare research aircraft. For the last 7 years I have been researching Porton Downs' BW experiments held in public areas of the UK....

Having flown a variety of aircraft over the years, I never pass up the opportunity to try a new plane out; regardless if it is a heavy jet, or a small two seat general aviation aircraft. The Liberty XL-2 is not exactly the newest aircraft around, but is still a bit of a rare sight. I was invited...

Dear Group, Has anybody some experiences with flight tests carrying heavy asymmetric loads in preparation for separation tests? I would be interested in: - test profiles (What individual tests were conducted during the mission?) - required / desired / useful parameter - number of flights -...
