Can someone tell me the distance between the bottom of the firewall and the center line of a corvair engine? I might have a 56x60 prop. I need to know how long the nose and main gear needs to be so I don't make rumble strips down the runway. Paul Visk Belleville Il 618-406-4705 Sent from m

I think pulling staples is pretty boring job . I remember when I was in the Air Force as a sheet metal mechanic. A B-52G pilot accidentally put the flaps down when he was going much to fast. Me and three other airman had to reskin the back sides of all the flaps. Now that was boring. Paul

This is a theme that I have heard often and seen myself in my home chapter. ?Almost always the cause is a lack of effective leadership, which is a chronic problem in most EAA Chapters. ? As of the new year, I am no longer an EAA Chapter president. ?About 6 1/2 years ago, our chapter had boiled

I went to the Nov. Meeting and met Paul (president). They was a good meeting. I brought my center sparse to see if someone could look at them before I closed it out. Someone asked why it wasn't solid. That was a good question. I don't know. Maybe it would be too heavy. But, if Ken designed

Paul, Don't worry, I am the only KR driver in my chapter but the RV guys are fine. I kid them about how little my plane cost and how little fuel I use compared the them, it's all good fun. Rob Schmitt On Jan 2, 2014, at 6:12 PM, "ppaulvsk at aol.com" wrote: > I don't think there's any KR exp

I agree, been there, done that as a chapter president. We were fortunate to have a large chapter with many members who either could present something interesting or knew someone outside the chapter who would speak/demo etc. If your chapter isn't filling your needs, chances are there are others

I used to belong to chapter 64 but didn't get anything out of it. All they seemed to do is promote young eagles, and other EAA programs. There's no time spent talking about building anything, no demos, no presentations from other builders, no KR builders and no one who had ever seen one, which is

KR> Looking for big wall sectional

Brian, I would suggest doing this with WAC charts. ?Exactly 50% of the size of Sectionals, so only takes half as many and half the space, but still has all the small airports. ?The WAC Charts are a bit decluttered, so don't have all the details of a Sectional, but do have the details you want.

Just saw the comments re: the big sectional.? I would like something similar but I don't think that a "big" sectional will work.? To be able to show all of the nation's airports, it would have to be a pretty big map and the airports would have to be very small.? I would prefer a map that fits on

Did it again. What I said is that I have used rubbing alcohol to thin epoxy to use it as varnish before. It works great. When I built up my last set of spars I thinned the left over T-88 this way and painted it on and the results were very good. I buy my alcohol in a gallon can from Home Depot.
