We only have a rock catcher fitted at the moment and, as the engine is on condition, we would like to make sure as little stuff goes through the engine as possible. My first thought is "too late now" :lol: if your engine hours are such. However, it may not be a bad investment for that time that you...

It's a good idea, whether mandated or not for LAA types. Bearings corrode, points wear etc etc. I have just overhauled a pair of Eisemann mags of unknown time since last looked at. They were in fair condition, but the impulse spring on one of them was about to let go, and although the bearings were ...

I'm in the process of fitting a firewall-mounted remote oil filter to an 0-200 powered high-wing aircraft. It's a Wolf kit, available from the US. Fairly straightforward, but their instructions are a bit out-of-date and they may have sent a wrong AN fitting. I don't know the price, customer supplied...

Dough sparking plug? Cheap and easy to eliminate. Then move on to other sources if that doesn't fix it.

I personally prefer Poly-Fiber because it is uses fewer coats than Randolph dope (so is quicker for the spraying coats), is completely inert after drying (so is fire-proof) and is very much more tolerant to humidity than dope. But I use both, according to customer's wishes. The chaps at Henstridge a...

Hi Paul,

I'm confused...does your C85 have a separate prop hub that fits on a tapered crankshaft? Or is it all one-piece (in which case I'm sure it's not cad-plated, but willing to be corrected!)

Me! (alone on Friday, I fear,) https://i.imgur.com/EhXa6YH.jpg but in good company nonetheless. https://i.imgur.com/F03lEju.jpg Just having a ball flying this thing. Three of us fly it; it's such great fun! I got to 600' agl today on the Pitsford arrival (and I was having chickens then; I don't like...

CAB (celloluse acetete butyrate) tubing?

What for? Night flying?

With your help, Jonathan, these rather large restrictions have been promoted over a wide GA internet audience (notwithstanding the NOTAM that the pilot audience should adhere to anyway). Thanks for your help in so doing. Might one wonder in advance how many GA infringements will actually take place?...

I've got one, Colin, just perfectly suited for your steed. Darned if I can find the mounting bracket, however. Do you have one of those?

Thanks, Chris...it makes sense now. Can a hyperlink be added to the Headline banner to make it clickable...or the BB forum area with the same name removed?
