All smoke no fire by
Bart
With all the heated debate over trival issues that I've seen in this
newsgroup, I have to say I'm really disappointed with what I'm seeing as
response to a real issue that affects the value of operating a helicopter in
the US.
Maybe you guys don't understand the impact of the proposed rule...

Dave Jackson
Hundreds of small low-cost UAV helicopters are located at dozens of secure

The remote pilot may...

Autorotation ? R22 for the Experts by
Eric D
Here is a good question for the more experienced helicopter pilot or
mechanic. A friend of mine that flies a late model Robison R22 Beta

increasing rotor speed a very small...

How scary is this thing? ( benson for auction) by
joe
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=26428&item=2464601457
This is located not too far from me. It looks like it could be a fun thing,

Any comments?

Thinking of buying a OH-23B, the wood blades are bad just how hard are they
to find, and at what cost $$$.
Also the OH-23 never had the airworthness cert issued, this should be the
same as the UH-12B . I believe I can get the standard airworthness cert with
a DAR and conformity with the original...

Do I own my airspace? by
Chief McGee
OK, here is the situation: Building an ultralight helicopter. If it comes
out to weight more than 254, can I legally fly it above my own land. I have

Bell 427 Main Rotor System by
Bob M
Is anyone out there familar with the design of the Bell 427 main
rotor? Since I first saw it I've been quite a fan of the design with
it's composite yoke for coning and flapping relief and it's rather
novel and very simple damping elements. Yet today I read that Bell
plans to re-rotor the 427...
