I emailed Jim Wier of Kitplanes and ask about getting an A&P license since he is a college professor and A&P and IA. Jim was kind enough to answer all my questions, but ask me to bring the topic to this group. I had checked in to two colleges that have dedicated programs for just A&P. They are...

I've just become aware that Lowrance has orphaned the Airmap 100 in that updates to the Jeppesen/Obstructions database are no longer available. My most recent database is from June 2002. Does anyone have a more recent database that you would be willing to sell, copy (may not work), or loan me to...

After leaving OSH I picked up my wife at Midway airport in Chicago. First airport i have ever visited where I could drive around it. Drive down one side, turn left and repeat two more times and you are back where you started. Anyway, on to the story, So, there i was checking into a Hampton Inn in...

Greetings All, Has anyone used a Radio Shack Capacitor for a filter on the alternator? If so can anyone recommend what size cap to use? Thanks for any help you can give, david

I'm in the process of looking at buying a plane. One of the options I've considered is buying a used RV6A or RV7A or maybe even an RV10. (Flying RV10's are Still a bit pricey) I want an IFR capable aircraft and I want all flight critical instruments, radios etc... to use certified components. If...

Looks like a tiny propeller. How can it make a big plane like that fly to such a height? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=216D3WvspN0

I have about three or four years of my monthly Kitplanes columns that have not been posted on my website for you all to use. I used to post them every month, but with dialup it was taking me (literally) hours to cut, paste, upload, resume ... for each article. I also had a wonderful volunteer...

For those among you who have seen (at OSH or aggressively shopped) and compared current generation of EFIS who is currently putting out the best product/$$ in the $5K $7.5K and 10K regimes? I am afraid some of you homebuilders are looking at some of those the $35K (G1000) products into your...

I just read in the newspaper that Walter Bussey was killed in a homebuilt airplane? That got me thinking to look for a NG that might be dedicated to this activity, and I found this one. This is all new to me, quite honestly, and disturbing. People are building airplanes at home and then flying...
