Hello, You guys, UFO sightings are way down. What's the deal? Are ya' goin' broke er' what? Did you loose something on the safety factors, or is it just because, I quit handing out the instructions? Awe, come on you guys. I've seen battery operated devices, attempts to travel time...

A possible fix would be to keep the tube submerged at all times by, making the tube mobile or attaching a float at its end to keep it where it should, another solution may be , and dont trust me here , test it first, to make the tube double ended so one end would always be submerged. a third...

Dave, Great info as always. Thanks for not using my name when talking about "beginners entering spins on hammerheads unintentionally" and on "fat guys sitting in the back seat causing rudder blanking in a Super D". GRIN Jay

It may not be up to a Pitts, but would it be comparable to a Decathalon? Would it be safe for aerobatics? How...

I need an emergency parachute because I will be doing aerobatics in a Pitts-like biplane: required by FAA. My weight is #140. The altitude I will be landing if I am unlucky enough to need to use the chute...

I need to have someone explain to me the advantages of two different Aerobatic engines: IO-360 with Christen Inverted Oil system VS an AEIO-360. Are there any inherent benefits of one over the other when doing acro with negative G maneuvers? Or are they essentially the same? Can you take any...

So, I'm asking all of you out there for advice on any airplanes that would fit this profile. Important to Haves: - could be...

Did my first accelerated spins yesterday (in a Grob). Woohoo. Unfortunately my stomach wasn't wild about them, so I only did a couple. But I did get to thinking about the aerodynamics of them (maybe as a way to forget my nausea!), and I had a couple of questions which I wondered if anyone here can...

Anyone have any suggestions on where to get a proper flying suit, the one-piece kind with lots of zipper pockets? My acro instructor gave me a couple of URLs but neither of them seems to work (flyingsuit.com and government.com - I remembered it when I tried it!). Would be nice to have something you...
