Titanium landing gear by Neal Fulco
This question showed up in another post, so I'll ask it as a dedicated question. About the landing gear legs on the F1 Rocket ( or Harmon Rocket ) and the Sonex. Does anyone know the diameter and lengths of the titanium landing gear of these airplanes? How about a source of the titanium/costs? ...

37 degree fitting by Ernest Christley
The most recent Sport Aviation has an article on make up hoses. The author states that 'you must use 37 degree fittings' and as is typical, gives no reason why. Is there a reason for this that involves the laws of nature, vs the "laws of the FAA"? -- http://www.ernest.isa-geek.org/ "Ignorance is...

FA EBAY: Evans Volksplane VP1 ( You won't find a nicer VP1) by JR
There seems to be some jealousy and bitter bigots trying to bad mouth this plane its ebay listing in addition to defaming me. This plane is priced to sell and built professionally and has hundreds of hour flown off of it safely. I refuse to have dialouge with any of these Keyboard Rangers...

Hi group, I'm looking for a Mitchell 12V 2 1/4" quartz clock with ELT hands, partno D1-312-5038. It's discontinued by the factory. I'm hoping one of you have a spare sitting around that they would be willing to sell? Thanks! Rob

Aircraft down in North GA by Wright1902Glider
The news reported yesterday or the day before that an experimental ultralight plane (they obviously don't know that there is a difference) crashed in north GA. There were no details beyond this. Anyone have more to add? Harry

John in Kentucky Asks by jls
Where can I find a set of pistons to hop up an O-200? Answer: John, use stock C-85 pistons. They are 3/8" higher than O-200 pistons and will give you that "pop-up" effect, that is, a little higher compression. Not legal, of course, in a certified aircraft, or aircraft engine you plan to...

The National Lake Eutrophication Survey 1971-1973 by Badwater Bill
The following is to the best of my recollection. I haven't even changed the name of a buddy I was with during these events. I may be wrong about some of the statistics, like the number of divorces and number of hot babes in the restaurants, but I'm close. Almost none of this is an exageration...

McCullough Two-Stroke Relaibility by Gordon Arnaut
I heard someone here not too long ago mention a reliability problem with the old McCullough two-strokes as used in the drone aircraft. The same person also mentioned that there are modifications to address those problems. I wonder if that poster could jump in and give me the scoop on that. I...

Would a 3 million Candlepower spotlight make a good landing light? by Legrande Harris
I need to buy a landing light to mount in a fiberglass cowl. I have been looking at Zenon HID's, halogens, etc., but the most powerful seems to be a halogen Spotlight. I am not sure what the current draw is but I would guess about 6 amps? I will strip the batteries off of it and run straight...

Let's Hear It From Homebuilders Who Make Your Own Sunshields and Panel Glareshields by jls
I'm trying my hand at it now. Sun shields will probably fit inside the plexi windows and be something stiff like that honeycomb signboard cut to shape and covered with aluminum foil and then maybe a film of cellophane or clingwrap to keep from scratching the soft plexiglas windows. For the...
