Ok, I am restoring a hovercraft, not a airplane, but the techniques may be the same....I hope. I have to bond foam into a existing fibreglass shell, to support the fibreglass, and to make the unit float in water. The original builder used canned foam, with pretty poor results. Any ideas? Thanks in...

A friend of mine is trying to use one antenna with 2 radios in his RV-4 and wants to be able to and listen on both radios and transmit form ether.... Is there a solution for this such as a combiner or RF switch that can be used with 2 aircraft radios? Thanks

I need a better antenna for the handheld radio in our homebuilt. Fisher Horizon 2 wood and fabric construction. I thought I had found a construction article for one that could be mounted internally in the fuselage behind the pilots seat. It may of been Jim Weirs' design but I can't find it. As...

Thanks to Dan Luke, pix of the infamous Pinckneyville "rec.aviation" fly-in are now available on the "Rogue's Gallery"! See them at: http://www.alexisparkinn.com/rogue's_gallery_i_-_p.htm (Scroll down to the "P's"....) Looks like a great time! Next year, for sure!

I need to make some switches. Any suggestion as to where to buy shafts? I used to have a link to a place that sold the shafts and accessories. I lost said link. Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired

Hi everyone, I have been lurking here a while, lots of good stuff. Thanks to all of you. I have been invited to join two different flying clubs in my general area, but both are some distance away. Just for fun, I have been thinking about trying to start a club. I have googled for "ultralight club...

I sat down to write this story about us being turned in at a UFO and the telephone rang, INTERUPTING ME. Now I gotta go to some stupid meeting and can't write the story and embellish it like I would like to do. So, here's the truth about what happened: I'll cut it short. I'll never forget this...

I have a 1962 cessna 172 that I am doing the interior in and I can not figure out how the door handles come off. I thought thy would have a standard "U" clip like cars, but these have a small spring that I can see behind there. Is there someway to push in and turn to unlock these things? Brad

Hi All, As posted before, I have a com 11A that I would like to get in proper operation. I have the pinout info thanks to this group and have sound coming from it. However, most noise is coming from the internal circuitry verses signal from the antenna. Does someone have the interface info for...

Little while back, on the subject of LED's, I mentioned that if they weren't bright enough simply use more of them. That produced a couples of queries from homebuilders wanting to know how many and how-to. The how-to is easy, especially if you're a ham radio operator, pick your teeth with a...

I had to look up BWB's word "eutrophication" in the title of his well-written and fascinating narrative. As he used the word, it has to do with nutrients in the lakes sufficient to provide healthy ecosystems --- food like algae for organisms like protozoa, fish, and otters. Here in WNC where the...

With the plans for the Fly Baby off the market for the foreseeable future, I'm trying to gather used plans sets for resale to interested homebuilders. I will either buy the plans outright, or put owners in touch with folks who want a set. Please contact me at Ron Wanttaja
