    Marriage Proposal Gone Wrong

    My wife and I had our first small plane flight together in a 172 at Williamsburg, Va in 2004. This was several years before flight lessons for me. I started feeling ill after 15 minutes of banking to look at the scenery. I immediately told the pilot to head back, as level as possible and give me...

    Question to the homeowners out there

    We had a tankless gas wh in Germany from 89-91. I bet the plumber worked on it 10 times. High efficiency does not always equal saving money in the end. HVAC systems that I sell are similar. They save electricity while they are working. When they break down out of warranty, they can cost a small...

    Question to the homeowners out there

    85' of 3/4" type m tubing holds about 2.3 gallons of water. Of course you need to heat all of that water line too.

    Question to the homeowners out there

    Well, if one is trying to maintain 120F water using a thermistor sensor, attached to a circuit board that turns pump on and off as well as heating elements, no thanks on the complexity and power consumption. I would rather just have my 80 gal tank or two 40 gal tanks(one on each end). As far as...

    Question to the homeowners out there

    Tankless wh and recirculating lines do not go together...unless you want $1000 electric bill. Either put a standard 50-80 gal wh and recirculating line on a timer or add another tankless on opposite end. Add additional insulation to tank and 3/4" thick armaflex to all hot water lines The builder...

    Next time, remember to call the local PD

    Now, wonder what his BAC was? Jeez, if only he had a blue donut, he may not have cartwheeled.

    Auricle Engine Monitor - 3 CHTs out at Once

    Follow 1, 3, & 5 CHT wires(6). Check for contact with hot cylinder or exhaust pipe. Did all three go out in flight or after maintenance was performed?

    The "go / no go" decision

    One time I changed my route around some mvfr conditions/hilly terrain and took the flat low lands. Another husband and wife tried to fly straight through, destroyed their aircraft into a hillside, but survived. Another time, I remained on the ground and another family ended up on the evening...

    The "go / no go" decision

    Been there. At least 3X. Oh how we like long walks to the nearest town, with backpacks, past chicken processing plants, after dark. Honey, look how close the airport is to town, from 1,000' and 120 kts. Hehe. Beats the alternative.

    Platinum plugs and 100LL?

    http://www.ramaircraft.com/Maintenance-Tips/Spark%20Plugs-Fine-Wire-vs-Massive.htm My IO-540-D4A5 runs smoother and more LOP with them. Less lead fouling too.

    The "go / no go" decision

    Sounds like the day before many of my return trips. Minus the beer 24 hrs out. Going is not bad because we plan around those wx makers. On one return trip, four days later than planned, we made it out of Florida before the first 60,000' Level 5 TS hit Jacksonville. ATC: Level 5...say intentions...

    Platinum plugs and 100LL?

    Tempest Iridium fine wires UREM38S are close to $95 ea. No erosion noted. Just more efficient combustion, better starting, thinner wallet.

    The "go / no go" decision

    I usually spend an hour flight planning a long trip, making phone calls to airports, etc...during good weather. So, I would never go flying, hehe. As the weather gets closer to my minimums, it takes me much longer. I will start watching the wx patterns 2-3 days out. Sometimes changing my route...

    The "go / no go" decision

    There are so many on here from all over the country that could offer advice on their local area if asked and the route was provided. You know how much we love giving advice. Another thing that would be nice is to be able to land at almost any airport in the country and have a "POA friend" come...
