Don't worry, you're not alone... except in my case it's been too darn cold to fly my open cockpit Hatz, while my decadent friends with cabin heaters...

This is one of the few instances where I would subscribe to the "Buy once, cry once" theory of life choices - lol In ONLY my personal opinion...

From the OP: "Anyhow, I'm just curious what others in a similar position have decided for themselves, what went into your decisions, etc. I'm sure I...

No worries. That's the nature of online communication!

Sorry -- I've never been good at reading faces, body English or tone of voice through text, so guess I missed that. I bet there was a lot of truth in...

Yes, I know. It was an attempt at humor. Apparently it didn't work.

I understand, and I'm sorry you had that problem, Eric, but that's also why I said: (emphasis added), rather than saying always. Of course you...

I only wish it were so. The beautiful winter days this year have been brutal! My neighbors (PA-12, PA-18 and two C-180s) blast off on flying...

Thanks, Ron. I'm getting my first Pfizer tomorrow. It sounds like it isn't nearly as bad as my first Shingrix shot (got four weeks ago) which had...

Removing the tank will be very difficult, but if that’s the only option, I will do it and try the coins. Thanks for suggestions,

I guess you can't remove the tank ? This was the only way the coins would work... By tumbling them around in the tank. Turning the tank over and...

Thanks for reply Bill. I intended to say ‘gasoline varnish’, ie the coating left on the walls of the tank when the gasoline has evaporated. I don’t...

Thanks for your reply. Once they are in, I don’t know how could get the coins out of the tank.

If the comment "gasoline resin" is actually sloshing compound then you may have a serious problem. Over time the sloshing compound can turn to goo.

Can you put a roll (or more) of Quarters in it and move it around with fluid... Or Nickels.....( nothing that might spark ) Count them when...

You're not alone -- most of us are (or have been ) in the same boat. Few people understand (or much care) about details of aviation beyond touting...

Thank you Larry, Dana and Eric! In retrospect, maybe it turns out I really did need some encouragement from folks that have been "there". I wasn't...

I at long last found the Golden Ticket. Namely a confirmed appointment for my first dose of Covid vaccine in just a couple weeks. So.... Yay me! -...

Ann & I got our second Pfizer shot 2 days ago. No reaction either time other than Ann was a little tired. She normally has a bad reaction to the...

I've heard the biggest side effect of the Covid vaccine is that the recipient has to tell everyone he got the vaccine. :-) Got my first one...

I got a Shingrix shot a few weeks back, so I'm kind of primed for reactions.

Thanks Wes. Good comment. I have a clarification on the following from the PAE tower chief. This edit corrects the following post and gives...

I would echo what Larry said: get in the air however you can, and you may find that a relatively cheap PPG or ultralight will scratch enough of your...

Go for it! PPG is a lot of fun, as are other ultralights. It's a very different scene from airplanes, though there is a lot of overlap, many...
