Jim or anyone else who has 'been there', Are circuit boards available for the capacitive fuel guages featured in the year2000 Kitplanes articles? Or (more desirable to me) is there an easily fabricated optical sensor available for fuel level measurement? Other options???

Would I be right in assuming that ballistic parachutes and pusher props don't go? Thanks, AC

Does anyone know what the AUX. AUDIO INPUT pin is used for on a comm. I'm trying to chase down a problem with my two comms. I have a switch to flip-flop between the two comms. Everything checks out good on the switch. However, I'm receiving on both comms. I also have a toggle to turn on an Aux...

How is the 51% rule line drawn? Let's say for example I want a homebuilt Comanche with my own choice of engine and I locate a set of plans as well as the wings and tail feathers from a factory Comanche. If I build the fuselage from the plans and recycle the wings and tail, is it an amateur built...

To be merciful, I've changed the subject heading so that those who don't care to read any more about this subject can simply delete it or skip over without opening it.

Looking for N-3 Pup POH. Will pay for dup and postage.

Hi Jim, I have seen people hang an empty plastic oil bottle on the fuel vent to catch the dripping fuel on Cessnas. Have you tried this? It shouldn't be too much of a fire hazard and will save your hangar floor. Just make sure that you drain the bottle regularly because the angle it sits on the...

Is there anyone on this group that uses one of the following new servers. news.cox.net news.central.cox.net news.west.cox.net nslookup will tell you that they are all mapped to 68.6.19.6 I can't access this group with that server, and so far can't get cox to

Now that is an achievement. We have been slowly avoiding the Airshow format that has to have a Harrier, or F16's busting my eardrums or a jet powered truck drag race. Way back when EAA was about Experiemental Aviation. Now John Deere and Ford get higher billing and more up front space than the...

Anyone flying from Ontario to Oshkosh? I would share expenses for the trip. Let me know when you would be going. Thanks.

Anyone out there who knows the pinout of the rear connector of the ARC RT-359A transponder? We just got an altitude encoder to go with the unit (an ACK A-30) in hope for a little better reception from the ATC when flying in controlled airspace... The ACK installation manual is fine, giving the pin...

How is a shunt determined for a digital volt meter to determine amp? Can a voltmeter that is using the measured voltage for its own power be set up on a shunt to measure amps? Charlie
