I have a accelerometer in my junk box. It's a 2-1/4 instrument, in good condition seems to function. I hold it in my hand and it registers both positive & negative G's.

You can think of this as a video version of the Rotax 912 installation manual. An engine installation was documented, plumbed, wired, etc on film. Might be useful for those unfamiliar with this aspect of building! Details at: http://Homebuilthelp.com/912.htm

Is anyone aware of an online, searchable database of production and kit airplanes that will allow a search for only high-wing airplanes? I'm aware of a few of the kits, but most likely not all. I'm looking at something that would be a decent IFR cross-country machine yet have decent short-field...

I've picked up an ICOM IC-A5 handheld that I'm going to install into the avionics panel of my Fly Baby as a semi-fixed installation. I picked up a headset adaptor for it, but I don't like having those big clunky headset plugs as intermediate connectors. I want to implement Jim Weir's "Karmic...

My A-65 had the lower half redone. At operating temp. and at idle, the oil pressure is certainly below 15PSI and may be below 10. I asked the company that did the work and they replied "we don't worry about low pressure at idle". Continental says a minimum of 10PSI. I'll get my A&P to put a real...
