A fool and his money....
"Jim" wrote in message ... I am looking for a Micro balancer for my Mini-500. While it is very smooth in most conditions I wil want to use a micro balancer in the future as future preventive maintenance will tend to cause changes to current settings. Must be a 100 or so out there now with no use because most Mini-500 owners retained their Micro balancers instead of conveying them to the new owners. Thanks, Jim |

Ah yes, and spoken by a pear-shaped farm animal who owns an aircraft that does what neither the Mini-500 or BD-5 can do, fold its wings, in flight. And he bought it _after_ he knew it did that. Does that qualify you for the Dumb**** Award or what? ![]() |

Any of the above still specifically points to one thing... You're a loud mouth wannabee. FWIW.... I've flown 473 of the 653 hours on my RV-3. Wings are doing fine up to 4.5 G @ 1100 lbs. Care to tell us what you have flown a BD-5 to? P.S. Since your so GD stupid/ignorant, Jaun... One can yank the wings off most any airplane. Especially the slick ones, teaching oneself aerobatics and in a homebuilt that was not built to specifications. Anyhow, there are those that just talk and then there are those that walk their talk. It's no secret which camp Juan is in. He calls it journalism... I call it pure unadulterated Zoomer bull****. Barnyard BOb -- 50 years and nearly 9000 hours of flight |

Oooo, I'm so impressed by this two-bit comeback, particularly since I already scheduled the high perf training as well as the DAR's time for the inspection. Putz. Go back under your rock and your folding-wing bird. ![]() |

BTW, B-o-b, what have you done lately of truly important significance to
your country with the RV-3? I'll tell you what I've done lately... I designed and coordinated the complete electrical and panel/avionics upgrades of three BD-5J Microjets that are used to train our military how to protect America by finding and intercepting cruise missiles fired by hostile forces, terrorist or not. The three aircraft can now do day or night VFR and minimal IFR down to ground level to run the mission profiles required to train our military pilots. Two of them are equipped with synthetic vision EFIS, advanced engine and systems monitoring, full digital AHRS and other features that allow it to perform its mission with a margin of safety sufficient to do the job and then some. The third is ready to be EFIS/EAU upgraded as soon as the mission requirements demand it. At 50 ft off the ground and 250 knots, the BD-5J is so invisible to radar that a tracking transmitter must be installed so the mission controllers can see it. At 50 ft, do people even care if _you_ are flying? |

You are ignorant in the ways of the RV-3. 3. I have 50 years and nearly 9000 hours of flight. 4. You ain't got **** in comparison - just a big mouth. 5. I have flown my RV-3 for 473 hours. 6. You have flown your 3 BD's for ZERO hours. 7. I have flown it to 4.5 G's @ 1100 lbs. 8. You ain't done squat in your 3 BD's. 9. I am well capable of flying a BD-5. 10. You are not capable of flying a BD-5. 11. I would never, ever consider flying any BD-5. More risk than all my experience tells me to take on. 12. Giving you the benefit of the doubt.... You have drawn similar conclusions, no matter how much you squirm to the contrary. If not so, I believe you to be a fraud and coward. Barnyard BOb -- the real deal |

I have 50 years and nearly 9000 hours of flight. 4. You ain't got **** in comparison - just a big mouth. And I can do basic math without a calculator. Trust me, your mouth is bigger. The horse in the barn said so. ![]() 5. I have flown my RV-3 for 473 hours. 6. You have flown your 3 BD's for ZERO hours. Lucky you! ![]() 7. I have flown it to 4.5 G's @ 1100 lbs. ROFL! That's about 66% of the capability of the BD-5 at the same gross weight. Proven fact, over and over again, in military ops, no less. Whooppee! Where did you do your 4.5G's, over the toilet? 9. I am well capable of flying a BD-5. 10. You are not capable of flying a BD-5. You can't even _FIT_ in a BD-5, let alone fly one. chuckle You forgot these.... 1. You've got a reputation as a loud-mouth asshole with more hot air than testicles, and can't do a damn thing about it except within your RAH Gaggle herd. 2. I've got a reputation as a pretty decent journalist who calls them as he sees them, doesn't charge anyone a dime to do so, and there's nothing you can do about that either. 3. You've spent years trying to convince people Jim Campbell is a jerk. You've failed, miserably. 4. I've spent years telling people Jim Campbell treats people the same way they treat him. I succeeded. 5. Jim Campbell is a success, and his business is growing by leaps and bounds. 6. You're a loudmouth wannabe looking at nothing but anonymous retirement in a folding-wing airplane. 7. I've spent years of my time helping people get information and become more educated about their chosen hobby. 8. You've spent years of your time trying to make sure everyone who ever reads your messages knows you're a rabid putz with a chip on your shoulder, with lots of bark/no bite. 9. When I go to airshows, people I've never met recognize me, say Hi and tell me they like what I write and what I do. 10. When you go to airshows, people you've never met don't give a **** who you are. Maybe in the next life you'll learn your lesson and understand, like Sluczarski (or however it's spelled), that you can't blindly attack people whom you don't know just because you don't like the people they associate with, and expect to get away with it.
