We really do not know whether weather was even a factor yet. It must be an absolute miracle that my family is still alive. I am a 350 hr VFR pilot, flying an IFR-equipped contraption that we built in our garage. Our 4-4.5 hr xc flights at 10.5-16.5 are not serious though. We have only filed a...

Yes, I'll take a 25 kt steady direct crosswind after a tornado anyday over the above winds at 45-90 degrees off the nose. I kept increasing my limits up to about 250 hrs. Now, I have decreased them back some.

Makers Mark and Woodford Reserve.

Thankfully you were not in an RV-10...95 kias max at 1/2 flaps or 15 deg. You would not have time to troubleshoot before pieces rained down over Texas.

I checked to see if any current was flowing in mA. Nothing, so unhooked the 680 until next flight to make sure. It still dropped. It is fine for trips, sitting for three weeks. I just keep it connected to charger. I will look at the EarthX next time.

I have my third Odyssey PC-680 since 2011. It powers the panel before startup(10 Amps), provides emergency power if needed and can supplement my main battery for cold wx starts. My main battery PC-925 is the original. I have had to keep the recommended 12 Amp Odyssey charger hooked up to the 680...

Paul, I don't know of any 16 SEER units that I install that do not call for a vs blower and txv. That does not mean it won't work properly, just that you may not be getting a true 16 SEER, maybe 15 or more likely not even an ARI match.

I am a DIY'er too, so I understand. My family built our slow build 10 in 2 yrs, and did everything but paint. The kit from Van's was just 1/4 of the cost. Just so everyone understands, for $2,000, you will get three pieces of equipment...2.5 Ton 16 heat pump, air handler and 10 kw heat kit...

"To validate your warranty, a licensed professional must have either fully installed or inspected your equipment before and including turning on the product(s) during initial start-up. After the initial start-up has been completed the professional will provide you with a dated installation...

I sell Goodman and American Standard. Goodman is now owned by Daikin from Japan. They are putting $410M+ into the Houston plant. They are about the only one that has not off-shored jobs to Mexico for assembly. Like all others, they assemble with mostly parts from Mexico and China. I would...

Check wiring and connections first.

I shipped 6-1 lb and 1-4 oz glass jars of our honey 1000 mi to Florida using USPS med flat rate box. Very little cushioning, marked "fragile/glass/honey" on the outside. Delivered without any oozing in 3 business days. <$15, can't beat that. I ordered a gift on Mon afternoon, 2-day Fed Ex, 2,500...

I would be more inclined to monitor my CHT and try to keep it under 380 F for longer engine life.

Now for a "brakes on" warning LED on the panel. I have one for each gull-wing door.

A&P 1993. PP 2008. I have met three other A&P's that were also pilots.

I just answer as a radio station and tell them that they are on the air. Click.

If you stop by SYM(good fuel price), DWU(good fuel price), HTS(class D) or PMH(a nice restaurant and fuel price), I can pick you up if needed. Not much going on this time of year. Greenbrier in Lewisburg, WV is a nice place for biking if it is not covered in snow.

Keep your tanks above 50% full if you like those long side slips on final, as you can unport at a bad time, out of glide range. Also the heavier you are, the more stable you will be. After the ppl, there are many things still to learn and master. Higher crosswinds with gusts, weather, congested...
