Anyone know what the story behind this is? Is this thing an ultra-ultra light? Is it a RC ultralight? Is it an RC plane? http://i6.tinypic.com/21o7ex2.jpg Monk

I caught an article by Jim Wier in Nov.'s Kitplane Mag. Good article Jim. Monk

He even mentioned a good friend of mine, Gil Armbruster, who also perished flying his homebuilt Revolution Mini500. http://groups.google.com/group/rec.aviation.rotorcraft/msg/56e21d4e4f21379d RIP Bill, Monk

They were showing this non-adhesive type tape at Oshkosh and the stuff sure seemed to stick to itself well and seemed to be the ticket for wire bundles, etc. Forgot the name- can anyone help me out here? Can it be bought in the US and if so where? How does this work in the real world (outside...

Hey guys, I'm preparing to get LSA CFI but I had two more questions: 61.415 (f) states that: You may not provide training to operate a light-sport aircraft in Class B, C, and D airspace, at an airport located in Class B, C, or D airspace, and to, from, through, or at an airport having an...

Does anyone know how to obtain the series of shows A Plane is Born? I didn't see it for sale at Discovery.com. Thanks. Hope to see you in Oshkosh!

Recently while poking around Westach's website (www.westach.com) I noticed they sell a carburetor temperature gauge (2C3-1) to monitor whether your carb air is in the range to cause carb icing. The gauge requires a sender unit (399W) for the carburetor. I sent an e-mail to Westach asking if...

God Morning all. Brief question. Is is possible (has it been done), to dry sump a type1 VW engine, such as the one marketed by great planes? The use, inverted flight, and mild -ve Gs. Thanks in advance for any replies. Rob. Melbourne Australia.

Has anyone built an Easy Eagle? Is there a version I and II? (What's the difference?) They claim a build of 400hrs and cost between 8-12K. Looks like a nice little single seater with reasonable range. Any in Australia? Thanks in advance. Rob Melbourne Australia.

G'Day all. Just wondering if anyone knew any information of a Easy Eagle1, registration N707DG, which crashed on it's maiden flight in 2005. Preliminary NTSB report on stetes that it took a long time to climb, and crashed into trees and after being seen tail low. (?stalled after take-off). ...

Good Morning all. A few months ago I saw a VW derivative engine in the front of the kitplanes magazine, in the What's New section in the front. I have since misplaced this magazine and can't remember the name of the maker/distributor. The engine is based on the VW engine, but I think didn't...

G'Day all. I have a Cessna 310L cockpit which I will be converting to a simulator. I wish for it to stay as authentic as possible, including method of construction and cosmetics. As such I have to repair/replace and modify some aluminium panels. My question: What is the best way to remove solid...

Good Morning all. I'm in Australia and homebuilding is nothing like in the States, so resources become a problem. Anyway, I need a rivet gun and a few other tools for aproject, and was wondering if anyone had information on Airtools, and other tools for Australia. At this stage it looks like...

Anyone see the homebuilt jet on the news over the weekend? They state that it took him 8 years to build. They also showed an in-cockpit video of him almost destroying it in 8 minutes. He allegedly did some taxi tests and then flew into the wild blue yonder for a short hop. Too much aileron in a...

This question is mainly aimed at Jim Weir, but others are more than welcome to give their 2c. With the aero-lectrics column in kitplanes, a GS tester has just been completed. My question. How hard would it be to make a GS indicator, with say LEDs instead of lines and needles. For example, when...

G'Day all. Just a quick query for all, both in the US and Australia. If I was to take a proven aircraft, say a C172, totally dismantle it, including EVERY rivet and bolt, replace anything corroded (ie:sheetmetal etc) and any hardware/bolts/cables, and rebuildcorrosionproof it, put in a certified...
