....and the plane pulls up on the earth. The air pushes up on the plane and the plane pushes down on the air; essentially transferring the earth's continuous flow of downward momentum acting on the plane to a much greater mass of air. That air keeps that downward momentum, diffusing it through...

Hello NG, I'm searching information about the Culex, a twin engined homebuilt. Thats why I try to contact Mike Fisher, who developed the culex. He worked at WACOKIT, Ohio last. His former partner told me, he doesn't work for WACOKIT anymore and moved to Colorado Silverton (or nearby). He wasn't...

Hello guys, We have just published the latest newsletter for the Pipistrel Sinus and Virus Motorgliders manufactured in Slovenia. This newsletter features... Important information and pictures on flutter testing which may be of interest to a number of readers.

You've got mail! From: "Fastglasair" Subject: STS AV7600 VOR Handheld aviation transceiver Date: Thursday, May 27, 2004 11:20 PM Does anyone know how to operate the VOR function on this radio? The VOR operation is not very intuitive. Bought this unit used, it came with...

In a related post I asked if anyone had heard of such a thing. So far the only response indicates a misunderstanding of how bamboo is used for such things. In the tropics -- with Vietnam being a fair example -- bamboo often has a diameter of several inches. When split AND STEAMED you're...

Searching for the registration D-EAAQ turns up Cessna 172 and Klemm L35, so that can't be it. There's the logo of the Air Power 09 Steiermark on both sides; their site doesn't show anything...

Do you guys know that you can purchase Aeroshell 15W50 and W100 or W80 at some Sams club locations. If yours does not stock, I was able to get mine in Ogden,UT to do so. I ordered 20 cases, this primed the pump to get them to stock and I spread the word to others to keep the demand up to keep it...

Anyone flying from Ontario to Oshkosh? I would share expenses for the trip. Let me know when you would be going. Thanks.

My Lyc. O320-D2C idles rough on the right mag, with the #3 cyl showing an EGT drop. The roughness clears up above 1200 RPM or so, still on one mag. It's also noticably smoother on just the left mag, and everything's smooth on both mags. In flight #3 CHT runs 50 degF hotter than the rest, as well...

Anyone near Sacramento CA have the wheels to move a Port A Port hangar? thanks David

http://www.alexisparkinn.com/rogue's_gallery_i_-_p.htm#OSHKOSH I finally got around to adding some of the pictures that were emailed to be by folks who attended our rec.aviation party, held in the North Forty at OSH '03. Scroll down past the fly-in pool party pictures to see 'em. (By the way,...

I googled, but there's not much infor. about converting the turbine in the microturbine generator for aircraft use. So I am tossing my idea here. The Capstone's microturbine generator looks very neat. The generator has 60kw output, and the turbine itself should have higher output, enough for a...

Lately I've had to use the stuff to work with some pre-made parts that were made from epoxy. Aeropoxy. Stinky! Epoxy is more viscose, so it doesn't wet out the cloth as well. It is more toxic, especially some of the older formulas. And smells horrible. And why did so many homebuilders get stuck...

Something about the thread, regarding transmitting power from one radio being funnelled into the other radio made me take pause. In the Houston area (and I'm sure most other major cities) there is an antenna farm that has a collection of FM, AM and TV broadcast antennae. I would estimate there are...
