My Jurca Sirocco has so little baggage space, that it really needs some extra room. I'd like to make a bomb-shaped belly pod, and have seen some made on other homebuilts. I've heard of some of the Pitt's S-1 guys welding two spinners together, back to back, but that doesn't have the look I want....

Well, I sold my big, custom-made bellhousing to another builder that wanted to get that radial look out of a rotary engine. That 21 pound chunk of aluminum just wasn't going to go nicely into the front of my Delta, so it's all for the best. But now I'm in somewhat of a lurch. I need to build an...

My old C-85 has a Bendix Stromberg NA-S3A1, which is leaking for a time after shutdown. Previous owner of the plane had tied off the mixture control so shutdown is by reduced throttle and magnetos turned off. Casual conversations are leaning towards a needle seat or float level problem. Any other...

Sometime last year one of the posters on here was moaning about the length of time that a Druine Turbulent takes to build, and that he wasnt even going to start. I looked at the post and thought, damn if that isnt exactly what I'm after. something with lots of small parts that costs stuff all...

Gleaned from the CPA ATIS 8.24: THE PRICE OF MOGAS IN CALIFORNIA. . . I've been touring California for the past week and was amazed to find Mogas in Modesto for $2.29/gal. I'm told it's the only place in California you can get it. Bill Whatley

Does anyone know of a formula that covers this chart calculation...? I want to find the horsepower based on altitude, rpm,...

If the big aluminum foil ears on a whip antenna doesn't help, what about those trailing wire antenna's that are trailed back behing the aircraft a good distance. I've seen them on Aero Commanders (500 series). I might hook up a spool of wire and one of those drag devices that pull it out the tail...

Anyone got a favorite technique for installing same?

I'm flying a BC12-D behind an A-65 engine. The Service manual says 500fpm at gross There are no charts (in the manual) which describe the effect of density altitude on this performance. Other than thru experimentation, can I calculate the Rate of Climb at various density altitudes? How? - Mike

I have an old TRT-250 transponder maintenance manual, for the ORIGINAL analog TRT-250 (not the 250D digital version). This transponder is no longer supported by Free Flight Systems and I suspect few shops take them in for repair, as some of the parts are simply not available (most importantly,...
