Hi everyone. This is an extremely interesting thread, and I have been reading avidly. As a glider pilot, based in the U.K (not that my location makes the blindest bit of difference), I am reasonably familiar with the process of using a cable to get airborne, whether behind another aircraft (the...

Hey, I was the kid that aksed questions in school that made the teacher wonder if they were in the right class so here goes: 1. If I built a large domed building, could I fly my helicopter inside without a helicopter license? I know there is some debate about needing a pilot license if you do...

I bought a started Homebuilt project from a Guy who passed on before finishing the build. His work is Top Notch and I don't think I will have any trouble getting his work accepted when I have the EAA people inspect the project.

I'm looking for some guidance on safely mounting instruments in an alumimium panel. Our panel is about 2mm (about 1/12th inch) thick. We had all the shapes laser cut, so everything fits well. What do most of you do with deep, heavy instruments like a gyro? Is it safe to just use the screws on the...
