Rich S.
Hi Troop..........
The weather forecast for Idaho today is staggering! 107° F in Boise, 108° in
Twin Falls and 110° in Mountain Home. Montana is similar with 108° forecast

"...Liquified nitrogen gas can store a lot of energy, pressure-wise..."

liquified you can store it in a lightweight thin wall tank. To keep...

Wittman tailwind by
Harry O
From memory, the differences were slight. The wing airfoil was different.
The W-10 has a curve on the bottom where the W-8 was flat. I understand
that there were 2 or 3 inches of extra width in the fuselage. Also, the
W-10 was stressed for larger (Lycoming) engines. I built the airframe for...

Does anyone have info about sites that are streaming the audio from the

Have you tried contacting one of the commercial companies like Petroleum
Helicopters or Air Logistics? Both of them are located in (or near) Lafayette,
LA. If the blades from a Bell 206 would be of use to you, they might be able
to help. Otherwise, you might also try Barnstormers.com...

experimental. There are times when you want a fast airplane for cross
country and you can stand a long runway for the high TO/landing speeds
and then there are other times you want the low speed handling for
short field, etc. ...
