    Opencockpit radio volume

    He has been extremely helpful and informative. I was amazed at how fast his response was and he has certainly been a great resource already.

    Opencockpit radio volume

    Ron, I emailed your buddy and he built up a few more adapters. I placed my order just a few moments ago. I'll be able to take the plane up and try it in mid September. Thank you so much for helping solve the problem !

    Opencockpit radio volume

    My open cockpit airplane is giving me trouble hearing the radio. Its non-electrical so I am using a handheld radio. It's a VERY loud airplane. I've got an ANR headset with my Sky Cowboys helmet. Would an intercom boost my volume? How can I make it so I can actually hear the radio? Right now...

    Ferry Permit during Phase 1

    As I dig deeper I think that's probably it. It's a beautiful plane and they probably said "hey, let's straighten this out and just redo from the get go". We have found a workable solution. All parties involved have been very respectful and are working to a positive solution.

    Ferry Permit during Phase 1

    40 and no not a stits. Perhaps it was the 40 because prior paperwork wasn't correct.

    Ferry Permit during Phase 1

    Yea that was what I was afraid of. Weird thing is the plane has 400 hours on it. It's just out of a restoration and apparently got put back into Phase 1?

    Ferry Permit during Phase 1

    Will the FAA ever issue a ferry permit if a plane is in Phase 1 and was bought by someone new? The idea being to ferry it to where it will finish Phase 1.

    Lycoming O-290 manual

    I'm finishing a purchase of an experimental with an O-290C on it. I can find a manual for an O-290D but not a C. Are they close enough that the manual contents for the D would be good for the C?

    Tech Counselor help needed

    I am and I'm on the leadership board for the chapter as well. I've found a gentleman there whose a fantastic wood worker, but is building an RV and doesnt know about the structural aspects of wood construction. He has been a big help already making some cuts I wasnt comfortable with yet.

    Tech Counselor help needed

    I haven't fully committed to which one yet. Currently I'm leaning towards the Aeromomentum AM13 or Jabiru. I just dont want a rotax and the continentals are too heavy and expensive for the power you get in my opinion. I wish I could swing a bigger prop on the Jabiru so that's why I keep coming...

    Tech Counselor help needed

    I'm building a Fisher Horizon 2. Its a bit of an outlier in the Fisher Community too. Most people seem to be building the Dakota Hawk or 80% tiger moth. Heres a few photos of my planned scheme and where I'm at.

    Tech Counselor help needed

    I would like someone to be able to inspect my main and rear wing spars and give me piece of mind that they are structurally sound. You guys have been a big help already on one problem I've had and cant thank you guys enough.

    Tech Counselor help needed

    I did. The one gentleman I found is a bit ofver an hour away and extremely busy and hard to get a hold of. Hes very talented but I think I'm just a bit ti far for him with his schedule.

    Tech Counselor help needed

    I am having a very hard time finding a tech Counselor or A/P to help me with my build. Since I'm building an all wood aircraft and not the usual RV type, no one seems interested or able to help. If anyone has any contacts in the Dallas area that could help support my build with occasional...
