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...

The ones that replaced the jeeps way back were Chevrolet S-10 mini pickup chassis with Grumman aluminum bodies from their factory in Sterling on old...

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. One point I would like to clarify is if in some cases a Special VFR is only available for VFR to or from an airport in...

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...

There's certainly nothing wrong with going to an ultralight to get in the air. And I'd suggest that starting earlier might be a good way to go, since...

I'll be wearing the hat that reads, I didn't take the vaccine ! Bob

Since the accident (CEN19WA289) happened in Spain, the US NTSB will would not be involved unless requested by the Spanish authorities. As homebuilt...

Hi, my name is nick, from Italy, I'm also iterested in NTSB investigation, and i'm interested also looking for a Capella flight/maintanance...

I had my first jab two weeks ago and my second coming up in two weeks. Nothing to it, but I have a couple of friends that told me their second jab...

I have an appointment for my first Fauci Ouchi on Sunday.

"Make no mistake----the event is on." Jack J. Pelton EAA CEO and Chairman of the Board. Is that an "Nuff Said" thing?

I recently saw in a news letter from the McDonnell-Douglas-Boeing retirees Association that Robert (Bob) Watzke had passed away. He worked in the...

Charlestonpilot.....did you ever get your airworthiness cert for the Bulldog?

Propeller vs Impeller, incompressible vs compressible flow, extremely low rotor solidity vs extremely high rotor solidity. Completely different...

Brnging this old thread to life as a lot has changed in regulations. EE op limits for small aircraft are about same as amateur built now, other than...

No one has posted so I will offer the observation that most of the article is aimed at instrument rated pilots, which is probably good. The part...

Someone made the observation that it looks like it was designed by the Pixar Cars guys.

I think a little more clarification may be in order. When you go online to purchase your improved water/electric site, you will see a map that...

I think you're confusing two parts of a jet engine: the fan that pushes bypass air and the turbine that drives it. Rotational speed varies somewhat...
