Have I got a deal for you! Sometimes, it gets busy on final, and you miss a checklist item (or three). And who can think with that horn blaring? But here at Haney's Used Flying Machines I have the perfect solution! A genuine pre-loved . . . Champion 402 Lancer . . . Replacing belly skin...

I don't actually have figures. So, I can't empirically say it is the cheapest. But boy it would be cool.

Grandpa says everyone is entitled to one fatal mistake.

In 1944, ICAO was the CAA and the CAB and their British equivalent.

Which is exactly what was said about the British Board of Trade 150 years ago. Only the subject was Victorian era railways.

Almost all of my time is in a Champ. It's not a 7FC, so other than an hour I have in an Ercoupe it's all tailwheel time. (I have a few more hours in a J-3.) Right now, renter's insurance is about $100 a month as a Student Pilot ($50,000 hull value, $300,000 liability, $30,000 medical). With an...

While the OP did say "weightless", I wasn't thinking about a weight of zero or even close to zero. That would be a dirigible. I would just like to build a 350 lb ultralight. But I'm weight-limited at 254, 278, or some other higher but still inadequate number if it's a floatplane. If I had an...

I plan to be . . . in another 52 years or so. But, I'm sure my age is a significant factor in insurance cost.

Well, I can tell that you've never had a big plate of al dente Bernoulli with sweet Italian sausage and Arrabbiata sauce.

No, but it isn't proportional -- which I assumed it would be (X per K).

I'm working on my SPL and exploring future options. I do know someone who scheduled a DPE at 22 hours and had 40 by the day of the practical.

Eh, some wiseacre would say I was violating the 5 gallon rule.

Obviously total time, time in type, ratings, claim history. Hull cost if that is covered. But what else? Claim history of the model? I ask because I have been given significantly different quotes on different models (with the older tail-dragger quoted at a lower cost than a newer...

I have thought about this in designing a Air Vehicle compliant with Part 103. Old fashioned control cables outside of the wings and fuselage would allow the fabric to be sealed and that space to be filled with helium. But I just can't figure out how to seal the fabric without adding enough...

No, "(n)ot everyone lies about everything all the time." But some people lie about some things enough of the time to spread disinformation and erode trust in the "official" version of what is going on.

Maybe I don't get around enough, but I don't know anyone who wants to risk their life or take a chance that they might kill someone else. But at my age I know tons of people who don't trust what others -- especially those in positions of legitimate authority -- tell them. Sure, wisdom comes from...

Or go whole hog under 103.

I just see Hurricane (singular).
