Zombie Thread, I know. My question is, this is now 17 years old. Has the FAA done anything or issued any new interpretations about this? Does the magic wording of "Meets the requirements of 61.129" have to be in the logbook or am I good to go? My IR was finished in 2022, and I have plenty of...

Here is the link to the actual build costs page. They are using the price of an AeroMomentum engine, which HAS in fact gone up since they listed it in the chart...by $1,700.

And I had a typo, but I'll leave it to avoid confusion. The AeroMomentum is 260hp, not 360.

They have the full breakdown on their website (can't access it right now because it's blocked on this network). I think the specs were with the IO-390, but the price breakdown has the AeroMomentum AM20T. Regular kit is $54,700 Fast build kit is $74,700

Voloce (vuh-LOH-chay) 400. 1. SEL 2. Experimental 3. 4 seats 4./5. 203 KTS @ 18,000 ft on 12 GPH 6. PLENTY of space 7. I Believe that the specs quoted above are with an IO-390, so decent high DA performance, although they do offer a 360HP engine that would make it even better. Ridiculous power...

So to summarize, what we’ve gathered is: You are a 20,000 hour pilot who has had the same headset setup for the past 15 years. When, after repeated use, it did not perform as well as it used to, you expected the company to replace it for free with the prospect that you MIGHT pay for that...

This is too short. Depart RWY 12 at Capitol City, land RWY 13 at Harrisburg International.

Boy, this thread quickly departed the discussion of the AC down at KOSH! lol Everything get cleared up and back to rolling I assume?

You still haven't addressed the key point: What was the issue with the UFM's?

This is not quite a daily occurrence, but living in a multilingual household, it is a common issue. I usually end up saying, “Just say it in French.” Then I play the guessing game to see if I can decipher it (most of the time I do, but that’s a combination of my weak but growing knowledge of...

Sorry, that was a bit confusing. Let’s say I fly KIPT-KROC and land/taxi for departure, but I’m on the ground long enough that FF says that it is closing the track log. Then I take back off and go to KSYR. I want KIPT-KROC-KSYR on the track log for that flight. FlightAware may see all of that as...

Not sure if this is directly applicable to this thread, but ForeFlight does now allow for multiple track logs to be attributed to the same flight. This can be useful if ForeFlight breaks up a flight into multiple logs, but FlightAware sees it as a single flight. I’ve run into that issue and...

Translated to normal people language, I'm shooting my bow right now a LOT more than any guns.

Sad. My grandfather was from Osage Beach (When he was born, it was called Zebra, MO).

My favorite caliber right now is a 5mm Easton Axis coming out of an Elite Ritual.

Just be aware of the difference between an "AR-10" and an "LR-308." One has an angled section just before the buffer tube while the other is curved. I've found most to be of the LR-308 variety (ie. Aero Precision M5) My grandfather was a machinist, so I felt mildly comfortable with my skills...

I'm doing mine all in FDE based off of a polymer 80%. Although with a potential move for work (government job) out of the country, I may have to sell out before I even get it built.

American Rifleman has done a number of articles on the subject of rifle caliber and almost invariably determines that .30-06 is the best all-around caliber. If it has become "less desirable" that is more a testament to marketing than to actual performance variables. Of course, there may be...

This is basically the same build I'm working on currently. Minor parts may be different, but overall, the same.
