RE: Flying into Canada...

Greg purchased my Pulsar XP in South Florida a few weeks ago and flew it to Bellingham, WA with a buddy/flight instructor. He's a good guy that I can vouch for. I ...

It's SOLD.

SOLD and on it's way to the Vancouver, Canada area.

Pending Sale. Thanks for looking.

I Have REDUCED price on my Pulsar XP. Tight Rotax 912UL-80 HP engine 928 TT Engine + Airframe. Very strong compressions 79/80 all around. REDUCED to $24,900.00. Hangered at (F45) North County Palm Bea ...

That's terrific that you had the opportunity to participate in the air show and static display. I think EAA and AOPA should push for more of this at other air shows. What a great way to share our love ...

I'd definitely be interested in the tail dragged gear, Sonja. I see the website is not up yet. Is the another way to view it? Will a prancing horse sticker come with the kit? Ha!

I love my Pulsar ...

I had a wheel fork problem, as well. I had a guy in Utah fabricate one for me that is frankly overbuilt. He makes, among other things, barrels for US Army sniper guns. I was going to put it on, when i ...

We had a discussion on the left roll tendency that my Pulsar XP has. It doesn't track straight-I have to have a slight amount of right pressure on the center stick to keep it tracking straight. Let go ...

Update:

I had a shop day at the hanger to figure out the slop/shimmy in the front nose gear. The bolts on the front nose gear shock were tight at both ends-I was able to get a small tightening tur ...

My Pulsar XP has a left-tracking tendency in the control linkage rigging. I've flown in no wind, low wind, different wind directions, etc. Let go of the stick and it slowly starts turning the left. (I ...

Thanks for the reply, Bob. Sorry for the delay in acknowledging. I've been idling at 1800-2000 RPM.

I rebalanced the carbs on my 912UL and the Rotax proficient/knowledgeable mechanic found a stick ...

On another topic:

Keep the 80HP (rebuild) or replace it with the 100hp 912-ULS at TBO time? What would I lose in GPH at cruise (if any?). Is it a no-brainer to go to the 100 hp or is the 80 hp smo ...

I love the Pulsar XP. But, the tricycle landing gear is the weak link for my aircraft. I want to solve some safety concerns.

I have replaced a cracked castering nose wheel fork in the first 10 hrs ...

How low should the low idle speed be adjusted for on the Rotax 912 UL?
I had someone help with it and he said 1400 rpm and if I pull the throttle that low, the engine shutters. I usually taxi at arou ...

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and thoughts. As a non-builder, what size/ length of SS Fuel Lines do I need to order for the left and right? It's a Rotax 912 UL. Available at Aircraft Spruce?

I have a Pulsar XP (860 TT on 912UL 80 HP) and the cockpit has a distinct mechanical/ fuel smell. Nothing is leaking at the fuel line connectors to the fuel tank selection switch. However, I do have ...

Anyone know how to contact Dan Billings? If he has another set of the plexi quarter windows, I'd like to my hands on a set.

Rex,

I received the parts earlier this week. Thanks for the fast service. If anyone is looking for parts, Rex is a good guy to get them from. (I bought the front wheel fork and the Lockwood carb s ...

Left you a VM, Rex.
