Everything was trimmed!! (-; Counterpoint to the Lightspeed QA 'issue': I have a 20XL and a 30XL. Both have performed flawlessly from the day I got them. Maybe I'm just lucky, but that never happens! To be fair, I don't listen to music in the air so I am unqualified to comment on the audio...

Hey man, I just sent u an email with my hotmail account...pls check it out ;)

I'm hoping he'll tell the rest of us the answer to that SUV thing. :-) What is the SUV thing?

Dear fellow aviation enthusiasts, I recently purchased X-Plane and had such an interesting experience that I thought I'd share (see http://home.nc.rr.com/bshankle/xplane.html). I am curious if any of you have had an experience anywhere close to mine? Sincerely, Bruce Shankle

I am toying with teh idea of using a single-rotor turbo-normalized mazda with reduction-drive and was wondering if there are any builders out there who have checked out the same possibility? I'm only looking for around 100-120 hp, with weight an obvious consideration. The only name I have heard of...

I did know Bill personally and always found him a facinating character. Every time I did post to rah Bill would always simply reply " I thought you was dead" I'll really miss him. Ed Sullivan

I am trying to get some information on a P-51 mustang called "Spare Parts". My wifes grandfather worked on this plane while he was in WWII. Said it was his favorite airplane. He was a mechanic and help build this plane from three that were damaged. I am an amature artist and would like to make...

Can any one give me info from when my dad was killed at fun in the sun on April 12,1996. Please I need closer

My blog has become a way for me to think out loud about my project. Putting things down in a narrative helps me crystallize my thoughts, and give me something to refer back to when the time comes to move from thinking to doing. Anyway, I've been THINKING about my fuel system, and have put down...

Just a warning for those who might consider purchasing Rapco dry vacuum pumps. Make sure that your engine does not leak oil. If there is any chance of an oil drip onto the Rapco vacuum pump it may eventually stop working. The connecting shaft is vented to air. But if some oil drops on the shaft it...

I assume you are putting an antenna on the OUTSIDE of the van. If this is the case, there is no such thing as too big a groundplane. If you are putting the antenna inside, then it is probably more easily understood that all that metal will be a shield to RF. I would recommend getting a 1/4...

I'm curious if anyone has had experience getting parts for these engines in the US? How difficult, how much time did it take and how expensive? I'm specifically looking at their use in motorgliders (which I'm actively looking for a Scheibe or Fournier, Vivat, or something similar). Regards, Ryan...

There seem to be a lot of people using auto engines on their homebuilts. I am a low-time student pilot so pardon me if this is a stupid question, but do many airports have autogas available at their pumps? If you're doing cross-country flights, seems like it would be a huge problem if your...

Some of my friend's plans fell through so I'm having to make some changes to my OshKosh plans. I'll be flying into Milwaukee on Wednesday evening, & flying out of Milwaukee on Sunday. That leaves me about 90 miles from all the fun though. Is anyone heading my way with an extra seat (car or plane)...
