I have a car adapter that powers my pda and gps receiver. The adapter is generic and has no information on it that says what the allowable input voltages are. Is there an easy way to determine if it allows a 24/28v input? Also, is there an easy circuit to convert 24/28v to 12/14v for these...

Hi all - I'm rebuilding a basket case RV-3 and need, well, just about everything. Anybody got any RV-3 stuff gathering dust they want to sell? Also, engine-wise, I've got an 0-320 boat anchor, good case, that's about it. Need 0320 stuff too... Thanks.

I flew in today, arriving about 10:15 AM. Inbound traffic was the lightest that I have seen in the 10 years I have been going there. THere were only a couple of other planes at Lake Parker, so we were directed right in. I had trouble understanding the tower controller, but got enough to "land...

On my first cross-country solo, I observed everybody was clearly readable by everybody - except nobody could understand ME clearly. The radio on the club plane is an Icom A200, quite common I believe and not too bad quality though it is on the cheap side. But I can't imagine my poor transmission...

I have recently acquired an old, but solid KR562 roll cab. It has seen better days and shows some minor owner modifications. However, I fell in love with the design and despite a failing cost-benefit analysis, I want to return this once gorgeous rolling cab back to its original state. However, I...

I am danish and moving to Chicago. I fly ultralight under danish regulations (similar to the rest of europe). What kind of licence is required to fly a 2-seater, 1000 pound airplane in the states? Thanks Soren

Hi; Am writing this note to see if anyone has ever seen an example of the Hirondelle two seat homebuilt. It is a wood design handled by a company in Slocan , British Columbia. On paper seems like a workable machine, of course they all are on paper. If you have any info on this aircraft, good or...

We are building an RV-10 and was looking at installing an auto-based intertainment system from J.C. Whitney. An entire system with DVD, CD, and MP3 player and 2 monitors ( one up frount and one for rear seats ) can be had for well under 1000.00 while the aviation calliber system cost nearly...

And still doesn't have his prop. Sterba doesn't return his phone calls and won't reply to an e-mail I sent him. I have been calling him for a week. Anybody else had this problem? I always heard Sterba was one of the good guys.

Hello there, we have recently been having our annual Christmas cleanout and I have found a new Microair transponder and a new Microair VHF radio hidden in our storeroom.

Hi groupe. Is it possible to install a new headliner in a Tripacer with the cover installed? I have a chance to buy a Tripacer that has a bad headliner. Thanks........Joe

Morning all. Is someone able to point me in the right direction to find the legislation/Acts/Regulations etc in relation to de-certifying aircraft in canada, to experimental status so mods can be done. Seems like a good and logical idea. Many thanks in advance. Rob Melbourne, Australia.
