In for Annual by
Jim Weir
I import switches from the Far East, PC boards from Eastern Europe, and send
components all over the world. I will **ONLY** do it by USPS, as the buggers at
the freight companies charge ridiculous customs fees.

David Megginson
Javier Henderson wrote:
Jim, how do you ship? USPS? UPS? I shipped some computers to BC a few
months back, via UPS ground, and UPS had a mandatory $50 brokerage
fee. Whether this is a real fee charged by Canadian customs, or a

planes, but I'm interested in seeing more of the (soon to be)
certificated planes. I've seen some interesting looking planes like
Jabiru's 'Calypso Sport' and the...

AirMap® 2000C by
Kevin Black
You have a flair for exageration. After researching many of the new
units, I doubt that any of them is "twice" as good as any other one.
If I've told you once I've told you a million times, don't exaggerate...
Sorry, couldn't help myself.
Cheers,
Kevin

For good measure, he even opposes the offshore renewable wind
energy project off Cape Cod.
This seems fairly typical of affluent and otherwise green liberals,
who tend to be found near salt water, and with the best views.

The new Diamond Twin is very tempting.

It has been my experience that autogas runs definitely leaner
carburated engines. I know autogas also has a higher specific gravity
- although I don't know the numbers off hand. But it does mean that
the calibration of a carb venturi will change - probably being leaner
for autogas. That you had...

Northeast Destinations by

I'm taking a few days next month to visit some places in the Northeast
