Hello Cessna owners ! I want to add PTT-Switches to the controls of a 1977 172N. Since the control horns are not hollow i don`t know how. Any suggestions ? Henning Dammann-Emden Bremen/Germany

reasonable price is necessary. Be nice to have the cruise speed of a Mustang II or equivalent. Tricycle gear is a big plus. email if interested.

All you old timers know how I am, and I know who you are. I don't post anymore, no time or need for the aggravation, to be frank, but I've met some very good, life-long friends and to you folks, I offer a New Years Post. Ladies and gents, take a moment to go get a glass of something pleasant...

I belong to EAA Chapter 62 here in San Jose, CA. We recently received a donation of a freshly built Ford 3.8L V-6 complete with 2:1 cogbelt PSRU, prop (may be the McCauley 8467...have to check) and radiator. The club has the whole package for sale for $2900. If you are interested contact...

Merry Christmas to all RAHers!! For no particular reason, I've decided to give a little "brain dump" of where I am right now in my kitplane choosing process. A little background. I'd been dreaming of a two-place kitplane for a number of years, leaning heavily towards an RV-9A for a long time,...

I am starting to design my panel and would like to plan for the capability of basic IFR procedures and approaches in the future. What equipment will I need room for on my panel? Thanks! David

I am wanting to buy an ultralight helicopter. I would be interested in complete craft, parts, or plans.

Hello NG, I'm searching information about the Culex, a twin engined homebuilt. Thats why I try to contact Mike Fisher, who developed the culex. He worked at WACOKIT, Ohio last. His former partner told me, he doesn't work for WACOKIT anymore and moved to Colorado Silverton (or nearby). He wasn't...

I am starting to plan out my panel and want to be able to have the capability of doing basic IFR operations and approaches in the future. I want to make sure I have room, in a logical location, for the equipment that will be needed. So my question- What equipment will be needed on the panel for...

Jim Weir, See link. Why would the FAA get involved? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=90973&item=4519498097&rd=1 tw

Due to low pressure in 2 cylinders my mechanic says it's time for an overhaul. The engine is 40 yrs old and only has 680 hrs TT as it was stored for 20 yrs. I've been flying 50 or so hrs for the past 8yrs and the engine runs fine. It appears that the rings are worn but also some of the leakage may...

I have found an excellent downloadable library from Stock Drive Products/Stirling Instrument. Their website is www.sdp-si.com Just go to the the Catalog page and click on "Free Download of Technical Library". Takes a while but is well worth the effort.

Just downloaded the 9 Jan 2005 FAA Registration Database. As of 9 January, there were 27,614 Experimental/Amateur-Built aircraft registered in the US. This was an increase of 3.8% over the previous year. Here's a summary of the past four years: Year Increase over previous year 2001 ...

Does anyone have access to a owners manual or reference guide to a apollo 618C loran? Plane came with the unit, but previous owner can't find the book. Thanks, Pete

Whilst you are patiently building your Fighter Ultralight, take some time out to fly ours in Microsoft's Flight Simulator 2002. You can download the model plane from www.fighterultralight.com Registration is required to download this file.....

With the winter doldrums well set in, this spamcan pilot has gotten to thinking again about trying something different in aviation- specifically the homebuilt/LSA area. Something not too expensive to operate, on floats (or a boat-hull) sounds like a lot of fun and might get me up in the air more...

anyone else attending the sheet metal class in the sportair workshop at oshkosh end of the month? John

A while back someone recommended that user's of Plasma ignitions not use the recommended RG 400 but instead use shielded wire. Klaus contacted me, the designer, for my comments about this substitution. Coaxial cable is used for several reasons: it is rugged, it has a high voltage rating, it has...

Here's one I'd like to throw out to the group for an opinion. As many of you probably know an airplane that may have been qualified for the new Sport Pilot rating when manufactured will lose that qualification if the gross weight has EVER been upped by STC, field approval ETC. There are some...
