Glasair 1-RG first flight by
R&R Sherwood
I now know the adrenaline rush that other builders get during their projects
first flight. Last Jan 17th, after 11 years building, my Glasair 1-RG and
I took to the sky. First flight was cut short because of high oil temps,
I think the temps are now cured. So far we have 8 flights, testing...

I want to work sheet and plate to about 1/8 thickness and have found
this stuff very tough in the past. How would one drill and cut it
with good results in a homebuilders shop? What types of saw blades
and drills work best? I...

tendencies or other rigging issues at all it flies hands off. I flew for 1/2
hour but the landing was not great, something to work on!! I started building

WJ
I lurk here off and on, but I found something the other day that I thought
you builders might get a chuckle from.
Many of you are probably familiar with Lindsay Press. They dredge up old
how-to books from the early days and reprint them. I was at a local
technical bookstore today, and found a...

Ground tests & pilot logbook. by
Paul Lee
Just a curious question here. Normally when I fly, my pilot logbook
time starts when the hobbs meter starts ticking. That includes probably
10 minutes of taxing, runnup, etc.
What about taxing tests on a experimental? Does that count?

BBS??? Weekly Chat??? Anybody up for it??? by
Jim Weir
Hey, gang...
Well, the Avionics BBS over on Yahoo was a spectacular failure. We had five
posts in six months and we just let the board go away. There was a problem,
though, that even as the administrator I found getting TO the board to be a
royal pain in the tush.
However, I get 8-10 posts a...
