No offense meant guys/gals, but I am tired of getting 30/40 e-mails each day and most of them are not interesting and/or the same old stuff. This bickering really wears one out. Ya'll keep checkin ...

I've been painting for 40 years plus and have had this problem many many
times. There are several different things you can try. I've had them all
work at different times, depending on what the ov ...

Just a word of warning.

I don't know how may of you guys/gals know about this old scam. I have my prop on Barnstormers and this is about the fourth one of these I've gotten like the one belo ...

I'm thinking about ordering an IVOPROP, any advise?

I really think it's a recommendation not a requirement. Like I said I can't
find a FAR on it. It is a good recommendation, but it definitely changes
your balance unless you can get the exact amo ...

BlankWhat's the deal about painting prop tips? I thought it was
required. It is on the EAA check list. I asked IVOPROP about it and
they said not to do it, it would affect the balance. I can't ...

BlankI am changing props if I can sell mine. I have almost $1000

It certainly is a case of "to each his own". However, with the dual sticks
properly curved and not straight it is a very easy task to get in and out.
A "C" bend allows your r ...

You might be interested in the way I designed my dual sticks. It's a total
retro-fit that allows you to put back the "Y" stick with little effort. See

The part # is 221 012D. It's for a VW Beetle. The other number on the box

Guess I'm missing something here. Zenith can't tell you what you can or
cannot do? Nothing says you have to use the serial number they assigned
the plans, I didn't. I bought a set of plans wi ...

I could be wrong, but I think that if the 701 is currently regististered in
you name with the FAA, you only need to give the new owner a bill of sale.

I have two of them I bought from gauges .com. They wouldn't work with my
Mitchell gauges. They are actually for a VW. E-mail me off list and I will

Granted, grade 8s are not legal for certified, but we are not doing
certified aircraft.
I have seen several comments about grade 8 bolts being brittle. Well they
are not, potato chips are brittl ...

There is another under laying cause for the "breaking" of the grade 8 bolts.
It's not the fact that they are grade 8 alone. Probably not the right size,
not torqued properly, over torqu ...

I think it is just regular low pressure fuel line, which is fine and will
last a long time. All I am saying is that Fuel Injection line is much
better, higher quality and higher pressure, but hig ...

If you use good fuel infection lines, the life is a lot more than five
years. I've seen regular fuel lines in 30 year old cars that were still in
tack and they were subjected to a lot more abuse ...
