    Classic/New 180/185

    I saw the Bushliner at Oshkosh this year. Evidently it started out as a Cyclone kit from Canada. I’ve a friend that got one of these kits that will be interesting to see how it comes together. I understand that all the parts are PMA’d to fit right up on the Cessnas...

    Best Kit or Project for ROI

    Let’s face it, the airplane we build will outlast us. Therefore, if we are “smart” we want to consider the future sell of our workmanship. We know that we can typically buy with less expense than build, if we buy “smart”. (Smart is likely an oxymoron in aviation) As an observation, it appears...

    Jodel O-235 C/S Prop

    My neighbor has one of these in his sights. Anyone got a PIREP? I’d be concerned about it being heavy up front.

    Time Flown Behind A Conversion

    Who has the most time flown behind non certified aircraft engines. Rotax don’t count. How much and what kind? I’ve got minimal time behind the Subaru and even time behind the VW in a couple Sonex(es).

    Parts For Sale Wanna Be My Neighbor??

    I’ve no clue on the price but I’m sure it’s reasonable. There’s a home and hangar (rough hangar) that has come available on 0TX0 Nassau Bay Granbury TX. The lots are 150’ (road frontage) x 342. The last 100’ is easement for a 200’ wide runway 14-32 2800’ turf (plenty of room for ground...

    Electric Kolb

    There’s an interesting project picking up steam on our field. I saw it yesterday for the first time. The airframe is now being adapted for electric power. There is a motor, “brain box” (no kidding, that’s what it’s called), and battery packs. He’s got it all with exception of the batteries that...

    What About EV Automobiles?

    Anybody here bit into this market? Pros/cons? Love it/hate it? Like I’ve often said, “If I can’t get there by airplane or golf cart (mine is ICE) I really don’t need to go”.

    Do any of you know anything about these folks? I’ve got an opportunity to get, basically a never run engine from these guys with some 1999 paperwork.

    What Did You Fly Today?

    I’m told that a student that has himself for a teacher is a fool. Deeply considering this, I opted to fly an Ercoupe to the home of the new owner. This is a demon for a taildragger guy.

    GHS Aviation Rans S-21

    I’ve worked as a mentor for the past 5 years building RV-12s (one ULS and 2 is versions) next year we’ll start building Randy’s new Outbound design. I think this airplane has some real potential in the homebuilt world today. We are certainly going to find out. This morning I plan to go fly one...
