Inverted oil cooler mounting by
[email protected]
Folks--
I have a bit of a clearance problem for my oil cooler. As is usual, I
can either mount it where it gets good air flow or I can mount it
where fits nicely--but of course, not both.
I am opting for the good air flow for all the obvious reasons. Part
of what makes this location tricky is...

When the U.S. dispatched two aircraft carrier fleets in the spring of
1996 for cruising in the vicinity of the Taiwan Strait, China quickly

6005-T5 spar extrusion by
jeanch
Hello,
Does anybody have knowledge about using aluminum alloy 6005-T5 for a
wing spar extrusion in replacement of 6061-T6 ?
Apparently it has the same properties and is more extrudable. I am
concerned by the "same properties", especially fatigue; but cannot
find anything on the subject and I am...

Vision Microsystem being killed by JPI? by
Scott Derrick
I placed an order for a 6 cylinder VM1000C last July. I didn't realize
that JPI was buying Vision at that time. I was told to expect it in 2
months, which was OK. In 2.5 months when I hadn't heard a word I called
and got a message to call a number in Texas? I called that number and
was...

Questions on installing an intercom by
[email protected]
I have an electrical/audio question. The intercom I'm installing has a
wiring diagram that shows the sleeve terminal of the phones and mic
connected to the shield at the radio end. This seems pretty typical.

Variable intake/Exhaust Ducts for Ducted fans. by
EridanMan
Hey Guys,
I know that ducted fans are somewhat the sophomoric siren of amateur
aircraft design... Such tantalizing performance benefits (No PSRU/
higher fan/prop speeds, much better control of thrust airfoil
environment, greater propulsion mass for small fan diameter, etc) only
problem is, they...

cyberspace and learned a little about this airplane, some of which is not...

I am a rookie at this welding stuff, and plan to get plenty of practice before building real airplane parts. That said,
what do you all think about heat treating after welding? I will be gas welding. Do I really need 4130 rod, or can I use
another high carbon steel rod? How about 'S2' rod (only...
