Tu cañón es mi cañón. Just be sure which one you're at before you fky up one . . .

Don't forget to subtract the volatiles, too. Ain't nothing left but the solids when it's dry.

Brittain makes an altitude hold unit--is it the B6? Pretty sure it will be less expensive than an STEC. The trouble is finding them. Call Brittain and ask, they ade runored to be building some more. Honestly, I don't miss an altitude hold function, our planes are not hard to trim..

Ah so! You're missing much more than just the boot, which is a rubber sleeve over the back of the servo can. good luck! Check "For Sale" here, and Alan, and call Brittain, too.

What did you do? I replaced my jammed cable a year and a half ago.

Pull the servo,ship to Brittain Industries in Tulsa. I had a torn boot replaced ~2010/2011 for $135 plus shipping. Removing the servo requires small hands to reach back towards the aileron and remove the single mounting screw from behind . . . The same small hands can also reinstall the servo afterwards.

I don't visit a fraction if the avatars here as I do on POA when trying to press the tiny red arrow leading to the Last Unread post . . .

Love my AccuTrak (with heading bug) and AccuFlight (with a switch for either the GPS or Nav 2 VORs). Expensive they ain't, just hard to find. They work very well, though--simple to use and easy /inexpensive to maintain.

I called around and priced the following options back in 2010: Weep No More, Wet Wingologists, Don Maxwell (using Weep No More's process) and Midwest Mooney's polyurethane sealant. The latter cost the most; Wet Wingologists was the least; other than Midwest, flying distance was about even. All had seven year warranties. Discount airline flights were available to Ft. Lauderdale, and Edison had an opening that fit my schedule and the airlines. My roundtrip ticket, FLL --> HTS --> FLL cost me $143 after all fees were added in, plus one night in a hotel and one taxi ride, FLL --> FXE. A friend on this list installed bladders at the same time. My reseal was just over 35% lower cost than his bladders, unless he inflated his bill when discussing it with me. We both had 52 gallon tanks, different year C models. Maybe because Edsion gives MAPA discounts?

Them're "doohickeys." oops, forgot the discussion's in Joysey. They's "doohickeys."

Cody is the man! Although testwest may know something, he was writing his dissertation about propellers.

When I resealed my 52-gal tanks in 2010, bladder conversion was > 10 AMU. No idea about 2016 prices, or any prices for 64 gals. My reseal was 1/3 less cost and 40 pounds less weight.

Shoot, with my well-proven endurance of 5-1/2+ hours, i don't need no stinking "extra 10 gals," bladder or ni bladder. Yesterday's 4 hours was plenty long enough, thank you. Speaking of bladders, it'stime to vent some used coffee . . . .

That plane ain't got no nose gear!

Would you people please stop reposting the picture??? My eyes . . . .

Peter, by that rationale the stall warning out on your left wing cannot be trusted because there is not also one on the right wing! I don't have an AoA yet, because I'm still waiting for one I like to appear, with a reasonable-sized display that can go right beside my ASI. And yes, I do periodically check my ASI, along with Altimeter, while in the pattern and even on short final. I roll wings level on final at 85 mph, and slow to 75 by ~100 agl, but I reduce that by another 5 mph for every 300 lb below gross I am at the time. Why? Because I got my license and was based for six years at an obstructed 3000' field, and am now on a cleared 3200' field. If I forget the extra 5 mph like I did today (or was it the extra flaps I added because I was a little high?) I touched down three additional stripes further down the runway than normal--today it was stripe #6, where I'm usually #2 or #3. Still needed only gentle braking to make the taxiway turn.

I flew 3.6 hours Wednesday evening at 9000 msl, 20-1/2"/2500 and 50°ROP, with three approaches to land at a narrow slot in the trees until I could see the runway lights on final. This morning I flew along the beach a few minutes then headed ~20 minutes away for fuel, call it 4.1 hours. I bought 37.8 gals, surprising the nice man at the FBO who hung out and helped while I pumped. Including the extra two night approaches looking for the field at Full Rich, thats still only 9.2 gph. Those extra minutes should have burned an extra gallon or two . . .

Be careful following roads through the mountains. Some of them have tunnels that you won't fit through . . . Especially if you follow the wrong road and aren't expecting a tunnel!

Just be aware, Richard, that there aren't always freeways around where you will fly at night. I'm at the beach ~20 nm north of ILM, the course I flew was 072° for 434 nm, nary a freeway to be seen, and not much of anything at all the last 50-60 nm. But I could see the coastline from all the offshore lightning . . .

I noticed this today as well. Shouldn't be hard to add a black banner, or change status above the avatar.

Welcome, neighbor! I'll pass pretty close to LGC tomorrow, going home to Lower Alabama.

It's already too late . . . Poor Mike has been infected . . ,

Did you pay just to park & camp, or was it included in your admission? That's what I did at SnF.

Mine is non-standard (painted two owners ago, no idea who put the epoxy paint in), but I have two slants. The numbers themselves slant backwards, and the whole thing slants up to the tail.

It happens to me from time to time, no idea why. PC, phone, ipad, all same same.
