Anyone know what the Slim Pickins quote "I'm gonna get them doors open if it harelips everybody on ear Creek!" means. I have just watched the movie (again) and have always wondered it it has any hidden significance. Regards, Jerry

I have just watched Dr. Strangelove (again) and have always wondered if the Slim Pickens quote "I will get them doors open if it harelips everybody on Bear Creek!" has any meaning other than the dialog. Any ideas? Regards, Jerry

As a member of this newsgroup for many years, I thought this would be a good place to get advice from my fellow pilots. My son is leaving for Afghanistan on the 21st of Aug from Camp Bullis. I am looking for a place to stay from Aug 20th - 22nd. Would like it to be near the "River Walk" area so...

I've used my Garmin 296 in the airplane for several years now and love it. In the Automotive Mode, it will show major interstate highways etc but want more detail in the major cities. I would like to buy the "Auto Navigation Kit" from Garmin that contains the 128mb data card, City Navigator CD...

I'm in the process of moving from Montreal to Ottawa and I'm looking for a tie-down for my Cherokee 140. I will also need access to a good mechanic. So far I've only heard about the Ottawa Flying Club. Any words of wisdon on both subjects would be much appreciated. Thanks Jose Vivanco C-GPYH

and back in the saddle, but not without a little excitement *smile*. 30 hours later, $1,700 less in my wallet and new wheel bearings to show for it, I decided to take a short hop from KMBO (Madison, MS) to KJAN (Jackson MS) which was a whole 9 NM to pick up a passenger who was coming in on...

I was thumbing through the FAR/AIM last night, trying to fall asleep and I noticed something that I couldn't understand. It appeared (in my half-asleep state) that the FAR says not to operate an out-of-calibration transponder at all, and the FAR says to operate it with altitude reporting off. On...

Last week, my name finally rose to the top of the shade hangar list at South Valley Regional Airport (U42) in West Jordan, Utah. U42 is a few miles south of Salt Lake International (KSLC). When we went to see the airport manager to sign the contract and get our badges, he told us an interesting...

I had a new windshield installed and don't want to drill a hole in the new windshield for the old temperature probe. Is there a cheap alternative that I won't have to drill the windshield to install?

My local mechanic says that I need to overhaul my engine. It's got 1200 hours but it's been 27 years since the last overhaul. He's worried about the age, and he hears "piston slap" when he runs the engine. Compression and oil analysis are fine. He is well respected around the local airport. He...

Our constant speed prop is getting long in the tooth. It was last overhauled in 1991, when it received new blades. My A&P says there is no reason to O/H or replace a prop so long as it meets specs and doesn't leak. Since we fly a couple of times per week, internal corrosion shouldn't be an...

I was wondering exactly which parts are generaly NOT replaced in an engine overhaul. Assume all new cylinders/pistons/rings/pushrods. I know that the crank is often not replaced if it checks to spec, and the cam may be reground and replaced but what about other parts? Are the con rods usually...
