I'm looking to move up a level from my ASW 15. Ideally, I'd like an LS 4 but they are few and far between. A couple of Pegasuses (Pegasi?) are listed on W&W and seem to be reasonably priced for what you get. I am in the US and am aware of the 3000 hr issue but don't fly enough for that to be a...

There are prior (some horror) threads about this, containing relevant advice. I would like to comment on a particular case. I just returned from Canada with a glider in tow. Having perused the other threads, I had forms CBP7501, HS-7, and CBP3311 in hand. Additionally, I had a letter of...

My wife is on my case to get rid of a truck project I'm never going to finish. I'm going to end up with a leftover 350 small block and a TH 400. What, oh what am I going to do with this stuff? ; - P

I have a need for 4 cap bolts 2 1/2" long 1/4"-28 class 5, Type type 1, zinc- chromated If you have 4 spares I would like them. I pay for the cost of shipping and the value of the bolts. The problem, they are only sold by the 100. Udo

I have a Pilatus B4 and wish to install an ILEC audio variometer. A TE probe on the tail is not going to happen, for a number of reasons. So I guess my choice is either a fuselage mounted probe, or no probe at all..which I guess would give me an uncompensated variometer. any advice for me, a...

The 11th NARROMINE CUP WINNER was TERRY BELLAIR. He beat the rest of the field by launching early and finishing late, having covered 500 or more Km every flying day. The NARROMINE CARAVAN PARK Trophy for the best NCW junior was awarded to BEN LOXTON. Ben is a junior who has yet to crack a...

To use the video capture features on a Macbook (10.4.11), I installed VMware Fusion 1.1, the Windows XP, then SeeYou. The result is a reasonable but not great SeeYou play rate which I then captured with IShowU. Has anyone else done this and compared the performance using Parallels? The goal is...

In a recent thread it was asserted that it was possible to get sport pilot airplane privileges without taking a knowledge test and flight test if the pilot held a private glider rating. For some reason I cannot see that thread. I had doubts that this was true and followed up with AOPA. The text...

I own a bicycle shop and we use cable lube on all tune ups. When a cable goes over a pulley or through housing, there is friction and wear. The original rudder cables off my Libelle (replaced) were braided over hemp rope. This reduces internal friction and holds lube. Lubing the cable will make a...

Anyone have any experience with the Vertex Standard VXA-300 Pilot III air band transceiver? I have seen conflicting comments after Googling it. MG
