Lasher Renegade Formula V Race Plane by
Curtis Scholl
For anyone who knows:
I have the plans for a Lasher Renegade, a VW powered Formula V race
plane that I plan on using for sport flying. I was given them in 1980
and they have been gathering dust while I support my children. Now at 50
years old, I am finally getting my chance.
Unfortunately for me,...

Flyers and Beeman's Gum by
D.Hass
Does anyone know why pilots always preferred Beeman's pepsin gum back
in the old days. I have seen it prominently referenced in The Rockeeer
and The Right Stufff movies.
I think it was to cover up alcohol breath or a superstition.

Flight Planning Canada by
Dale
Does anyone know of a sight that offers flight planning for Canada
similar to the airnav.com sight?
I have to ferry a 206 from Anchorage to Arizona in a couple of weeks and
find airnav handy for initial planning.
Thanks in advance.

RON in Canada by
Dale
In early March I'm taking a 206 from Anchorage to Arizona. I'm planning
a RON stop in Prince George or MacKenzie. Prince George is a fair sized
city and I'm sure will have motels. Does anyone have any info on
MacKenzie?
Sure wish AirNav worked for Canada! G

Some People by
Dale
There's a student jumper at the DZ I fly for. He owns a Super Cub and
flys it to the DZ. It's a nice "Alaskan" Cub with huge tundra tires,
STOL kit, VGs, etc. We were on a weather hold today so I was talking to
him about Cub flying (The Super Cub is on my list of airplanes I want to
fly someday,...

Vapor Lock by
Dale
For you guys flying injected engines.
I'm flying a Cessna P206C with the Continental IO-520. It quite often
will quit on rollout after landing. I'm being told that it is probably
vapor lock causing an interruption in fuel flow. I'm not convinced.
The ambient temps are in the 60s to 70s. The...

Vne/Va/Aircraft Mods by
Dale
I'm flying a pair of Cessna P206s that have the Wing X STOL extended
wings. This mod adds about 18 inches to each wing at the tip. (And for
anyone thinking of STOL mods I highly recommend these..they reduce
takeoff roll 20-30%).
One mandate from the STC is that Vne is lowered to 189 MPH from...

Autogiro as PAV? by
Dale Harris
Why hasn't the AutoGiro ever taken off as a PAV (personal aerial vehicle)?
It has nearly VTOL capabillities which are crucial for any serious PAV IMHO.
Maybe one with computer controlled fly-by-wire (which would make it safe to
fly for relative novices ) could help kickstart the market, although...
