Hello Craig, and thanks for pointing out the nomenclature. I have never been around linseed oil in any form except as a very young lad when I...

For the average size American adult, the CH640 is more like a 2+2 than a true four place. Even with the lowered floor and extended rear seat options,...

Considering how truly deafening so many of the aircraft flown at AirVenture are to us mere humans - I cant imagine how much agony that noise must...

Well, it didn't say where on the grounds the dogs were. Two of the dogs had service dog markings, but I would certainly ask the two allowed questions...

You don't want purified linseed oil, but rather, boiled linseed oil. BLO should be available at your local paint store for about $25 a gallon, or any...

Thanks Craig. I will check on that, but if the Poly-Fiber product is capable of spontaneous combustion as well then they may be not much different....

Thanks Dana, ACS is one of the places I have sent inquiries... No response so far unless you count crickets! ;-)

Not much different than dealing with any oily rags around the shop safety wise, other than a slightly higher probability of combustion. If you can...

I used linseed oil in the new landing gear I built for my Starduster. You'll find every pinhole leak in the welds... :eek: I believe ACS sells...

Thanks for the reply Craig, There are other choices for the fill these days besides BLO. I don't know enough about what they are and asking around...

Here is video that AOPA did on pets at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2019. Pets are everywhere. https://youtu.be/iqb6AtsmycM

I've done the boiled linseed oil before. I set the fuselage up on a rotisserie and used a homemade fill system. I took a piece of 2" pvc and added a...

Awesome shots Ron! I showed these to my Dad and it made his day:)He’s typed on the Gooney and misses flying it! He flew Charter out of MSP in the...

Nice photos.

Also during the show, they re-created Operation Little Vittles, dropping candy to the kids at the fly-in, using homemade parachutes.... Ron...

The Zenith CH650 light sport is configurable as a taildragger and the new canopy has plenty of headroom. Zenith CH650 Zodiac

Kinda surprised one of the storage unit facilities hasn’t caught on to the idea and built a block of 5x10 or 10x10 units. It’s a sure way to keep...

Apparently, it's been done: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMGuueWe7xY

Yeah, I've always availed myself of the extra month free plan. Actually we have like 48 of those black and yellow 27 gallon tubs from Lowes lining...

I think somewhere along the line we’ve reached a point in society that everybody looks at others with suspicion. I encounter this with my fins...

In one of the pilot bios it said he and his Spitfire pilot partner bought a 2 seater at auction 10 years ago. I assumed or misinterpreted this to be...

No one missed the point. Someone made a joke. I don't know of anyone who would actually say that to a concerned parent. The only possible issue I...

Even something like a job box. A company could stack hundreds in a warehouse. Let them know what day you're arriving and they drop it off at the...

The biography of Robert Tuck references a Spitfire pilot with the nickname, "Green to Black." It comes from his description of ditching his...

Floats, as I read it they are in the polished silver single seat Mk IX, not the two seater. They have a support plane, I think a Piglatus. The...

You miss the point I was trying to make. No one in the Y E program should be trying to denigrate either a parent , a child, or a volunteer, with...
