EAA Chapter 216 CRoss Keys NJ Photos Lots of stuff this year. Different stuff each day, but Sundays Fly-In was much better. Including a Jet fly-by (N29DJ). That was the 1st jet I've seen at Cross Keys. Unfortunately I had too much lens for a full side shot, I still got a coming & going shot. I...

I read in Avweb that a predator crashed, recently. Anyone wanna make a bet, that it's Rotax puked? g Sorry, everyone. I couldn't pass up the opportunity! :-) -- Jim in NC

Does anyone here have any experience with marine fuel flow instruments on aircraft? I was thinking of the Navman 2100 or Lowrance LMF-200. Are the transducers less fail-safe then their aviation counterparts? Should a transducer bypass be considered a "must have"? thanks Mike

Will the aluminum paint applied of a fabric plane preclude use of an interior VHF antenna? Just a simple yes or no would be appreciated. JLW

Western Couplings at Mojave Airport has thrown away an entire dumpster full of stainless flex lines and couplings of every size and shape imaginable. They're in a big blue dumpster next to the UPS building. It's too far away for me to scrounge, but I thought I'd let people know.

Hi Group, As long as we are discussing merits of toy airplanes - have you seen this one? If you have I apologize in advance. This video was shot in a gymnasium with some really bad background music, but the flying is something else for a model airplane. If you are on dial-up this will take a...

So for 35 years now we've been putting out our kits with two printed manuals per kit ... a "operations and maintenance" and a "construction and assembly" manual. Each of which costs us about $2 a manual. Not a big deal. I've got a wild hair that we can put out a digital CDROM set of manuals...

I have to say, I am a fan of the Rotax, though there have been two reports so far of the crankcase fretting and thereby clamping down on the crank bearings. The only way to tell this is by turn the prop by hand as it becomes quite hard to rotate eventually. I understand Rotax will be investigating...

I'm trying to locate a used Shadin fuel flow transmitter part number 660534S or 660534R for my project. A working pull with no documentation is just fine (as long as it works). Thanks! Larry Edit return to reply: larry at skagitmedia.com

Installing a 540 in a Skybolt and running the obligatory breather tube along the length of the fuselage and out the rear in the usual manner. Was planning on a 3/4" diameter tube, is that big enough? TIA, Scott

Guys searching legislative web sites drives me nuts. I've searched the canadian dept of justice web site for this and cant find it. can anyone point me to the act which creates the canadian owner maintenance framework/legislation. ....for aircraft owners. thanks Stealth pilot Australia

I've got a question about the size of yokes on pneumatic rivet squeezers. If you have adequate room to work, is there any disadvantage of using a larger than necessary yoke? Say, I'm riveting a piece 1" wide material to another with a 5/16" overlap, obviously a 2" deep yoke will work, but why...

You airplane geeks will love this. My son bought his three-year-old an Air Hogs "Twin Fury" plane at Toys-R-Us on sale for $12.95 Saturday. This is a twin-engined pneumatically powered toy airplane that is very, very clever. Here's a link to a picture of...

Hello: I'm an Spanish builder. I'm very interested in the Andreasson BA-4B all metal plans. Does anyone know if there is a source for these plans? Thank you. Angel.

I'm looking for information on the RE-170 Gyrocopter, apparently only six were built. I'd like to know the designer/builder and how to get in touch with him.
