Here's a joke for you that I got from another thread, The Public Works Minister of a former French colony in Central Africa is in France in an official visit. He is invited for a dinner at the private house of his French counterpart. When he reaches the place, he can't refrain to say: - My...

I have a database, which I will gladly sell you, for all these pilots. Please send ME a private email, as I am too important to monitor web sites. Dude. PS I would never put my email on a NG, and you are going to find out why soon... "Brad Mallard" wrote in message

I have what I hope is a simple question on the BD-4 landing gear. On my BD-4 plans the rudder donuts that are called out for the main and nose gears are identified as a Lord Mount (J-11968-5). There is three of these required for each aircraft, one for each leg. My question is can you still buy...

Hi everyone, Am planning on embarking on building an RV 10. Would like to hear from those who are building an RV10 or have built one. Questions: 1. Can I order / start with the empennage kit initially and then order other kits as I move along? 2. How do you guys finance these planes? Is financing...

My friend has an ADF in his C-180 with the type of antenna that goes from the windshield to the tail. Says it works fine on the ground during taxi and runup but gets nothing but static (over the phones and needle won't "track") about 3 to 5 minutes into flight. Happens every time. There are no...

A while back, I had most of a Clip Wing Cub given to me. It has wood wings, (assumed to be Wag-Aero) and what appears to be an early certified cub fuselage. I can no longer get a bill of sale for the fuse and wings; how do I get this thing registered as an experimental? I am an A&P mechanic, so I...

Finally I have www.fighterultralight.com up and running Again!. This site is in no way associated with plansdelivery.com. It has been set up so us wanna-be constructors can get together and nut out this project and start seeing some FU's in the sky, Please show your support to this site.. Also we...

So much has been said about tax writeoff for certified new plane purchases. Any possibility for homebuilts? When the kit is purchased? When completed and registered?

I googled, but there's not much infor. about converting the turbine in the microturbine generator for aircraft use. So I am tossing my idea here. The Capstone's microturbine generator looks very neat. The generator has 60kw output, and the turbine itself should have higher output, enough for a...

Not a substitute for the Overhaul manual This book contains an overview of maintenance and overhaul for the WWII-era-technology air-cooled Lycoming engines which unfortunately still power the vast majority of personal aircraft in the world. It is useful to people who have worked on other...

Other than the signoff for flight, why would the FAA get involved in the annual inspection of a homebuilt? I was watching the national news (ABC) last night (Wednesday) and watched a segment which took place in an FAA hangar in Washington DC. There were five FAA types with clipboards going over a...

Can someone tell me the differences between a loran antenna and a comm or VOR nav antenna? I guess what I'm looking for is why they would not be interchangable, i. e. is the loran signal totally incompatible with others? is it an absolute necessity for a preamp in the loran antenna (I would assume...

Hi all Does anyone have a copy of a circuit diagram to construct a headset tester? I'd like to construct one to test the headsets students are returning claiming them to be faulty, which after I've headed out to the flight line and plugged in, surprise surprise, there is no apparent fault. Any...

I read the Kitplanes discussion and thought that a poll of this group would be interesting and more relevant. Perhaps in response to two questions; What airplane do you own? What dream airplane would you like to build and/or own? My vote on both questions is the correct choice, of course.

Is there such a thing as a smaller (used market) diesel other than the current batch that is being developed? I have researched the Guiberson but it is too large for a light twin and too small for something bigger like a Beech 18. A site mentioned a six cylinder opposed engine developed from...
