We also had a Laser 28 and had the same experience-kinda like the little Laser on steroids. Back on topic, I'd say the peak call is correct.

Appendix D of the Aera manual has the interconnect information. Try selecting NMEA Out, at the correct baud on the connected Aera serial port, then try switching between normal and fast modes. From Appendix D it looks like it's possible that if you have aviation in selected for the Aera that...

Yes, convective activity is not to be messed with with light GA planes. I wouldn't even consider intentionally flying into a storm in a specially modified plane: https://ztresearch.blog/tag/t-28-storm-penetrating-aircraft/

Well the forces working to get rid of 100LL are alive and well in S. Cali. This sign is posted on the entrance to my city owned airport. Note the organization named at the bottom. It's not a governmental organization but I suspect it gets quite a bit of public funding, and interesting CV of...

This is an article my dad wrote including the description of a photo recon mission over Hiroshima a few days after the bombing.

A little fund raising program to get L88 reopened for operations. It's a nice out of the way airport to check out the location of an infamous Youtube parachute video or grab a bite to eat. https://kindest.com/445222-reopen-l88

Ercoupe pilots excepted of course.

Ah, Tipper and Beercan flights, must be at Williams AFB.

Basically with all of the time required for the farming equipment maintenance and operations I didn't want to hassle with the wife's car. We sold the farm (sounds much better than bought the farm on a flying forum) and moved to the big city, hence the change in dealerships. Our new place...

In Cali. if you have a plane of "historical significance" and exhibit it 12 or more times a year you are exempt from the property tax. At least that's a minor loophole for those of us with planes of a certain age.

Your county assessor will send you a questionnaire form to fill out that they use to determine the tax basis. As schmookeeg said in post 19 the property tax will be close to 1% of the valuation. If for some reason they don't get the form back, they will assign a valuation themselves (don't ask...

Thanks for the replies. Maintenance history on the car is oil changed every 5K miles vs. 7.5K in the maintenance guide. All service done at the dealer, but unfortunately Ford dealers use their own service intervals instead of the one in the factory guide so the fluid changes etc. were at...
