Hi Guys.....Anyone out there flying or building a Cygnet? Looking for build time and / or flying characteristics. Think I want to build one. Thanks in advance.....TldrgrDan -- Dan Tappan

I'm doing research on the speed distribution of homebuilts. It's easy to find published data on the fast airplanes, but I'm having a hard time finding anything on the slowest. Anyone have a suggestion?

Gentlemen, It's been a long time since I posted here. Hope all the regulars are doing fine. My latest project is powered with an M14 radial I needed a cowl for it, and I like metal, not fiberglass. Long story, but I wound up with two extra sets of cowl spinnings. Anybody interested? Each set...

It has been some time since we had an update. Anybody have news regarding the Jacksonville "no homebuilding" ordinance? Dan Horton

Gang, SouthEastern Regional Fly-In volunteers will meet in the near future to organize and plan for the 2006 event. The dates are October 6th, 7th, and 8th. SERFI is fly-in, not an airshow. In other words, we try to make it an event focused on the enjoyment of aircraft owners, not the...

Does anyone have a formula or (table of values) for atmospheric pressure at various altitudes? 1,000 foot intervals up to FL330 on a standard day is all I need. Thanks in advance, Dan http://www.scuba-training.net

There's a debate going on over in rec.crafts.metalworking about what type of igniton was used on the original Flyer, and on the replica, if it's different from the original. Does it use a mag and sparkplugs, or the old make-break contacts inside the combustion chamber to produce the spark? Dan
