Sun N Fun is at which airport?

Hi guys. I've been lurking for a day or two and I wanted to introduce myself. I've wanted to learn how to fly since before I could drive. Unfortunately, I've never had enough extra money laying around to get me into the air. I understand the air of flying, but I don't believe in it. All it really...

Wilbur and Orville Wright are the source of many a great quote. They had a perspective on life, work, and the flying problem that many folks would do well to adopt. That being: chop the problem into little peices and work on them in stages. And if you don't know how to do something, then get some...

seems like people just keep coming back for more... http://blog.wired.com/cars/2008/09/its-a-car-that.html I think I'd rather invest in the current market than go down that rabbit hole.

I have been asked to relist the Airplane Pilot 10 DVD set. Over 9 hrs of videos for $29.99 Take a look at http://motors.search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZpilotpublications Thanks very much.

I could use some brainstorming on how to approach the rusted cluster shown at http://members.cox.net/mhorowit/cluster/ - Thanks, Mike

I have been reading up on seaplanes (Seaplane Operations, by Cesare Baj and Dale DeRemer) and one frequently repeated fact is that it is very hard to get a seaplane up on the step on glassy water, because the lack of bubbles under the float/hull causes the heel of the float/hull to adhere to the...

To make a long story mercifully short, RST is looking for a person to do the accounting function. While there are hundreds of thousands of beancounters in the area, there are darned few that understand that all small airplanes aren't yellow with a small bear painted on the side {;-) We don't need...

To All: Oil for the right-hand half of the crankcase arrives there via the channel behind the #2 cam bearing. When building a high-reliability engine a standard procedure is to increase the cross-sectional area of that narrow channel. While this improves things, the amount of oil that can reach...

Hi! I am trying to help my friend find crankshaft gear and the adapter plate for the Rotax 532 reduction drive. He just bought the following of e-bay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4632954... and needs the missing parts. I've found a schematic for the drive...

Anyone have the scoop on this guy? He has started a sportplane group he calls SPPA. Wants $40 per year. Does a lot of "trolling"

What are the pros and cons of continually heating the carburettor body with a stream of warm air? Not the inlet air, just the body. The intent is to minimise the risk of carb-ice, will it have that effect? Will there be impact on the performance of the engine (Jabiru 3300)? Rob

Can someone ‘splain this to me? I have no idea if I have it right, or not. As I understand it, maneuvering speed is the speed above which the aircraft may be damaged due to full control movements. Below that speed, the plane will stall before damage occurs. I also understand that maximum...

Anyone heard of them? They apparently vanished in 1929. I don't know if they made a complete airplane or just hardware. (Interesting turn-buckle: threaded 12-28.) Any information would be warmly apprecaited. - Robert S. Hoover - EAA 58400 (Life Member)

Buddy called me up a couple of weeks back... "I just bought a vacation house, and there's some airplane parts in the basement. What should I do with them?" Turns out they were wings, windshield, and instrument panel for a Warwick Bantam, an all-metal plans-built design from the 1960s. The wings...

About 3:00 this afternoon. Apparently he had some sort of problem with the plane after taking off, so he turned around, but he overshot the field and hit a fence and flipped over. The pilot was taken to Harborview Medical Center with what were described as non-life threatening injuries. Photos...

I have a Collins VOR receiver and a connected Collins VOR/LOC display installed in the Emeraude. The receiver has an LED digital display for frequency or bearing. If I select, say, "from" I will get a display of the bearing from the VOR station. If I rotate the OBS on the panel VOR/LOC instrument...
