Re: ALL MEMBERS ! Please fill out those proxy forms..!!

Re: Wanted Lycoming Parts
If all else fails, try Nalson Aircraft (http://www.nalsonaviation.com/) Paul Nalson buys insurance write offs and can supply such items.
Best wishes,

Re: Aircraft Transportation

If you could let me have your tel no or e-address (send to harry.hopkins@talktalk.net) I'll ask him to call/email you. He doesn't take in...

Light Aviation
Another great issue of Light Aviation. Thanks Brian.
If you don't save your mag make sure you pass it on to a non-member in your local aviation community and urge him/her to join.

Re: Snap vent vs vista vent
Oliver,
I have no idea how large a hole you need to drill but perspex drills have zero rake on their cutting edges. Step drills are perfect if they go up to the size you need.
Alternatively stone a flat on the cutting edges of a regular drill.
Best wishes and happy drilling,
Harry

For aviators the exhibtion area is also most interesting and there's a Sywell Mus...
