One of them thar "newfanged things" they want us to replace our ADFs wif :)

My understanding-- and I may have this wrong because I'm a 'yank'-- is that the CAA requires that maintenance records be kept on public display in a cellar for which there are no lights nor stairs in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying...

Legally, you can record it using a grease pencil on the wall. If you have three separate books, I'd put it in the prop book because the VOR is attached to the prop :) What? Your VOR isn't attached to your prop... How odd...

Engine, propeller, number of seats... But they were both approved under the provisions of CAR 4a...

It's the L-9B (aka 10A) that for some inexplicable reason keeps being mistaken for a Cub, including by a still-wet-behind-the-ears ASI.

Thank you much for the article. Kinda cute, my boss wanted it because there were not many imported here to the US. Density altitude is less of an issue here. It's -10 C (14 F) and while that is a tad low for January, the August high is usually around 30 C (86 F). Not exactly Alice Springs...

Ah, for MGs (.30 not .50s) you need a Globe / TEMCO Swift... (If-n it's on the TC you don't even need a STC :) just a Class-III.) "While TEMCO was building the Swift, the company received an inquiry from the Philippine government. They wanted a military version of the GC-1B. TEMCO modified a...

Airplanes with friggin’ lasers... "I figure every creature deserves a warm meal."

From the factory Vagabonds already have a very effective two-part anti-missile system. The passive part was covered in Randolph Products "Piper Cub J-3 Yellow" and the active part controlled by that big knob-- might be blue-- low in the center. :)

Thanks, I've been looking for that "r" I misplaced. :)

I may not have the best health care plan... The last time "Doc" just asked me to squat in the parking lot. I asked why and he said: "Well, if it attracts a lot of ants you have high glucose. If it dries too fast you have high sodium. If it smells like meat, you have high cholesterol. If you...

Fortunately-- or unfortunately depending upon ones point of view-- I was a little older and my grandmother had given me a copy of 'Harriet the Spy' by Louise Fitzhugh (ISBN 978-0-440-41679-1). Mysteries did not remain mysterious for long. :)

Gorgeous.
