With all that has been said/read latley, this little blurb seemed strangely
appropriate: Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Mr. Common
Sense. Mr. Sense had been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old
he was since his birth...

BSFC vs gas mileage, 2 stroke vs 4 stroke by
Jay
I've been under the impression that 4 stroke engines get better gas
mileage in aircraft due to their higher BSFC numbers. But I've
recently realized that since the 4 stroke engines are so much heavier
than a same horse powered 2 stroke you end up having to design a
larger aircraft (and engine) to...

Sport pilot - International? by
Rich S.
How is this (Sport pilot) going to work when you cross a border? I'm
thinking specifically of the U.S./Canada line, but also U.S./Mexico.
Currently (I'm told), when you re-enter the U.S. coming from Canada, the
U.S. Customs inspector asks you to show your medical certificate. If you are

Personal Air-car by
sanman
An interesting article from space.com :
http://www.space.com/businesstechnology/pave_techwed_040818.html
I can't imagine myself ever using such a vehicle, even if one could be
made for the masses. Why risk your life when you could be safer on the
ground? ;)

Is Charley telling us anything about A/C tie-down? by
Icebound
Does anybody know of any wind-tunnel tests for analysis of tie-down
behaviour? I tried a google search without much success.
Having seen the Charley pictures from Orlando Executive and Punta Gorda, I'm

The standard for tricycle gear GA planes seems to...

'Room Temperature' by
Anthony
That's a valid point and room temp beer in the UK often is fresh from the
cellar where temps are certainly lower. I didn't think a still Lucas joke
would stir things up so much, I expected the Canadian hockey joke would have
gotten more attention. ;o)

Wreaks in Florida by

I hate to bring this up and I know it is a real shame that so may airplanes in Florida were wreaked during the
hurricane, but at least they were all on the ground and no one got hurt in them. I want to get some of those parts

FAA plane crash records? by
Larry
A friend of mine lost both parents in a plane crash when their Cessna went
down in 1976 or 1977. Nobody ever says a word about what happened. Any idea
where I could research the results of the accident investigation?
Thanks!
