    Aero Commander twins pros/cons

    The 500 model used direct drive engines. That is where I would focus my search. And speaking of Mr Hoover, he did a publicity flight in a twin commander (not sure which model) with one prop stowed in the baggage compartment

    Autonomous Fly-By-Wire?

    As a former freight pilot in rural Alaska: Worst application I can think of. Does this aircraft unload freight by itself? Who performs the walk around to check doors, tires, prop (lots of FOD out there), children/dogs, freight carelessly dumped by other operators? How does it deal with a...

    My former employer at the big airplane company specifically didn't allow laser or plasma cutting within 0.005" of a finished edge because of micro cracking. How do you keep that from happening? Audit your suppliers, use source inspectors, only do business with suppliers with a good reputation...

    Bose A20 issues

    I also have a set that does this. Because I used them for my job I couldn't wait the X number of weeks for the warranty return. So I bought a second pair and shipped them in. It only took a few weeks and they came back with what looked like new everything. It took me a while to test them out and...

    Sonex High Wing "Unibrow" - What are the aerodynamic implications?

    Steve Whitman was a genius designer (setting aside his opinion about rib stitching dope of and fabric wings). The wing may look odd but the Tailwind was a very efficient aircraft in terms of mph/hp.
