Let’s reiterate on this. I have done both high speed taxi tests with wings on and wings off. If you are doing this wings off, remember that the stub wings create enough lift to pull you off the runway without ailerons. Be careful out there. Mark Jones Oldsmar, Fl N771MJ “WunderBird” www.flyk

I had always thought you were supposed to high speed taxi test. Never thought it was an option. And we can guess forever if it is smart or not. Personally, I am a fan. A friend bought a Pulsar. Got it all back together eventually and asked me to accompany him to the airport to check her out. We

A friend wanted his father's ashes scattered over the Devon UK countryside and another flying mate offered to do the deed in his Woody Pusher. Long story short, the Woody flew for several years afterwards with the father in it's rear fuselage! On Fri, 9 Aug 2024, 16:13 John Gotschall via KRnet, w

My mom wanted her ashes spread by her pilot sons over Mount Rainier. I took 2 heavey paper grocery bags and cut them at the glued seam and cut away the floor of the bags to make a flat sheet of heavy craft paper. I folded the craft paper sheets along two parallel lines to make a paper trough. Gl

I don't know if you've ever done that before putting ashes out of an airplane. You don't want to just open the container and open the window you will end up being completely covered with that stuff. What we do is we've got a big funnel and a 1 inch hose we hang the hose out of the airplane, and pou

I was fortunate enough to be given Dave Mullins KR2s-XL project and lots of Corvair parts by his brother Joe upon Daves passing a few months ago. Joe reached out to me and asked if anyone attending the Gathering would be willing to fly Daves ashes in their KR as a memorial to Dave. I believe Jo
