There are no human rights in Britain. Both the "European Convention on Human Rights" and the "United Nations Declaration on Human Rights" grant to every accused person a free and public hearing. By the law of REVERSAL, the British ruling gang DENY such public hearings to the accused. We have the...

I'm looking for sales numbers of LSAs and regular piston-powered aircraft for recent years in the US and, if possible, other countries like the EU or its members. Including "sales" in the Google query only turned up a lot of ads for aircraft for sale or sale agents. Does anyone have a lead for...

Hello, Ellison claims the Ellison Throttle Body Injector need a heating box. Some users say they never experiment any carb icing. My question: is any ellison user experiment a TBI carb icing? Thanks --

Quick question, and I know that someone here will know the answer: How much runway is needed to get a (relatively) empty 182 off the ground? I am thinking one pilot, 45 minutes of fuel, and 1000 MSL. Grass. I once saw an Iowa State Trooper land a State 182 on concrete, little wind, in less than...
