There seems to be more than one kind of airplane sparkplug. Plus the fact that there are several manufacturers also-- and they use DIFFERENT NUMBERS!! Is there a site where I can D/L a comparison chart like they usta have for the automobiles??--They'd even have 3 columns for heat...

The Aero-Vee engines seem to be working out okay, but since they weigh at least 160lbs, they might seem a bit heavy for the thrust produced. They supposedly make 80hp at 3400 rpm. It matters little how much HP they make, what matters is how much thrust is applied to the aircraft. You could have...

For A&Ps and others, Homebuilding ones own plane is very educational. Right now I am learning about the vacuum system in particular the vacuum pump. My engine, an O-320-E2D, can take a 211CC or a 215CC. I haven't been able to fnd the difference in the literature. Does the difference in these...

Can anyone point me to where I can obtain a suitable service manual for this engine please. Also any relevant information regarding upgrading from 1200 to 1385cc would be of interest. I understand Mahle barel/pistons kits are available that simply fit onto the existing block and heads. Pros -...

I was looking at the back page of Sport Aviation with SS1 covered, and it trigged a question. When it was at OSH, there was a group around Brian Binnie and he said that they couldn't fly that particular day since the insurance underwriter wouldn't let them. (I'm not sure that statement...

Hello everyone - my first posting here. I'm in the process of equipping my Earthstar thundergull with avionics. This is a very light tandem 2 seater. I was wondering what type of navcom to go with...handheld or panel mounted. Panel space is limited , so a panel radio choice would probably be...

G'day from Australia Ok! Who has got a Scott 3200 in their workshop that they don't want? Any clues on one would be appreciated. Regards

I realize that this is an impossible question, but I'm just looking for some guidance. How long should it take to build a Quick Built RV-10? Everything new (engine, prop etc...) IFR cross country aviionics. Working on it 16 to 20 hours a week.

I've become interested in the Weir W-2 Gyro and was wondering if some aviation enthusiast that has been to the Scottish museum might have some photos they could E-mail. Any other info on this old Gyro would be appreciated. The Internet info seems to be kind of sparse. Yeh, I know I'm getting...

Hi All: Is there an actual requirement that a set of jacks be installed separate from the intercom jacks that go directly to the radio? I had thought this was needed so that in case of a catastrophic intercom failure the radio would still be available. This has been present in past planes that I...

We have these on our Glasair right now and are swapping them out for Matco's to get better stopping as they are undersized for our weight and landing speed. Would be fine for a lighter plane that had a slower stall speed, like an RV for instance. They actually work O.K. for the Glasair but we...

It involved me, George W. Bushusuru, and the Devil and a deck of cards. To make a long story short, I suspect the Underhanded One rigged the game, because Jorge was made to make me the new FAA Administrator, and provide me with some lackeys to make any evil and rotten fantasy of mine come true, at...

Hi All, Does anybody have any opinion on the quality of the WW1 full scale replica kits offered by Aerodrome Aeroplanes? How about flying characteristics, overall kit quality, any other stuff of interest pertaining to these kits? Thanks, Candice

I have a full set of WAR 1/2 Scale Corsair plans for sale. I bought these plans a couple of years ago while I was building a Minimax. I finished the Minimax and have since sold it. I'm not going to be building this thing anytime soon if ever so there is no need for me to hold on to these...
