ADSB transmits both GPS and pressure altitude. Last time I checked, only pressure altitude is used for aircraft separation. Don't know which flightaware shows.

My Garmin ADSB transponder doesn't start transmitting until a minimum airspeed is reached. I assume this is based on some desire to de-clutter ground movement from flying aircraft. Pressure in the cabin generally reads low as well. He needs to try a static cone.

That is one long take off roll.

Exactly right. I evaluate each climbout for the point at which a turn back is achievable, either direct to the runway or to down wind. I know how low my abeam point can be to allow a successful landing.

That is how best to get good at it and you have an engine to abort if it isn’t working out. Know your plane, it’s abilities and limitation.

Perhaps not a project for everyone, but I swapped my two elevator push-rods for carbon units after someone asked if it might save weight. Indeed it did. ~50%, 2 lbs vs 4 lbs. The larger the tube, the easier it is to save on weight. The tubes are roughly 5' and 6' in length. Primary load is...

Interesting thread. Here is an AoA probe I used for Stability and Control flight testing. 0.02 deg resolution. I didn't see any discussion of resolution and sensitivity. AoA unit are great near stall in terms of knots per degree. At approach speeds not so good unless your approach...

Well for some reason the two links are combining to only one address. The text of the addresses is correct however. Chris

http://www.n91cz.com/HingePlay/HingeRepair.pdf http://www.n91cz.com/HingePlay/hinges.htm I just stumbled across this thread. I saw a few references of the use of piano hinges on Lancairs. Implied was that they must be ok for the application. Unfortunately this is not quite the case. Stock...
