compound curves in plywood by
BA-100
I'm considering building a replica of a 30's glider that was originally
built in two halves, like a plastic model, but with pressed plywood halves.
Duplicating this has been outside the reach of a homebuilder without some
sort of press, and any made since have either been made out of fiberglass
or...

Group Activity by
Wayne Paul
I have been off this group for over a year. Previously this was a very
active group; however, there has been very few messages since I returned.
It may be due to my service provider, or maybe with the passing of a few key
members the overall activity has significantly diminished.
The main...

Scripps model 302 V12 engine by
butch burton
Saw one this weekend in a Gar Wood speed boat-circa 20's/30's. Huge
thing with 2 plugs per cylinder, 891 cu in and 316 HP. Layout looks a
lot like the WWII Rolls Royce V12. Just curious if anyone knows if
this engine started life as an aircraft engine and was later modified
for speed boats. ...

problem involving reduction gearing and a driveshaft got some insight from

Effect of Light Sport on General Aviation by
Gilan
I think you haven't seen that many message threads on SP/LSA because they
get so heated like discussions on religion or politics. Maybe folks are
burned out arguing over the subject. Of course there really isn't anything
to argue about. I think the new LSA will be a good thing and have a...

Narco Com IIA Wiring connections? by
Rod
I picked up an old Narco Com IIA radio.
I'd like to wire it up at home in the garage so I can listen to the
traffic and approach control flying overhead.
I've searched the internet high and low looking for documentation that
would identify the connections on the back. I can't find any, not...

Propeller or jet to push an in-line skater? by
John Doe[_4_]
How far-fetched is the idea, to use a propeller or jet engine
(radio controlled type?) to push an in-line skater? How does
aircraft takeoff thrust compare to using a conventional motor and
wheel to push oneself along the ground? What sort of incline would
be achievable at say a skater weight of...

Objective Engine Discussion by
Rick Maddy
I wish to begin gathering UNEMOTIONAL, tangible pros and cons on
engine choices for my Cozy Mk IV. I won't be ready to begin working on
my firewall for about 12 more months.
As I see it today I have the following engine choices:
Lycoming 360 or XP-360
Mazda 13B or Renesis
Jabiru 5100
Subaru ???

Yo! Fuel Tank! by
Veeduber
Riveted aluminum fuel tanks are smart. They're easy to build and superbly
practical for the homebuilder since she can make them in whatever shape she
needs.
Most folks shy away from this fabrication technique due to the high cost of
Pro-Seal, still listed at more than $8/oz in the Aircraft Spruce...
