    Excellent! I was looking for this the other day -- hoping that he'd do it again this year. Thanks for posting.

    Martin's forum presentations at AirVenture

    Are you sure @SixPapaCharlie is available for your meet and greet? I think Airventure conflicts with his big air show.

    Let’s talk stocks

    Here's a suggestion, start 8 letters. In half (4), predict that the market will go up in the next quarter. Predict the opposite for the other half. After the quarter, half your newsletters will be wrong, kill those. For the other half, repeat your market up (2 letters), market down (2...

    Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda

    I’ve got my van just the way I like it, and my spot by the river is perfect. Nope. Wouldn’t change anything.

    Any ideas what causes this to a cylinder?

    Just curious-- how was that picture taken? Can a boroscope take one from that angle?

    So, homebuilders...who are we and where do we stand?

    I’m just starting to plan the assault on the wings. will be interesting to see how everything comes together (windshield, skylight, wing root fairing, rubber channel, etc). I’m planning on drilling out the #40 holes with a specific bit I got from Aircraft Spruce. I saw the melted nail trick...

    So, homebuilders...who are we and where do we stand?

    Finished fitting the windshield. This took a lot longer than I expected!

    Airport codes?

    It’s because they are (or were) within the bounds of Chicago center. Lots of NorCal (Oakland center) airports have “O” in them. L in SoCal. S near Seattle. Etc. There is some logic to it.

    Where to build

    I'm building a Javron super cub in my 2.5 car garage (one big door, one small door). I've also got the wings, a workbench and some storage in there (plus weight set/workout area). I wouldn't want to put a car in the garage. It would fit but that would bring in traffic I wouldn't be too keen...

    PA32-300. Am I a Cherokee or a Saratoga?

    So, homebuilders...who are we and where do we stand?

    Thanks for asking. Let's see...most of the interior is done. Pedals are in. Getting brake master cylinders tomorrow to fit those. ELT is installed. Boot cowl and false boot have been fit. My next big task is fitting the windshield and hanging the wings (and fitting the wing root pieces)...

    How y'all keeping in shape?

    The Grad! My wife and all my HS friends went to Davis in late 80's early 90's. I had many of their watered down Long Island Iced Teas!
