    Spark Plug Adapter Issue

    Folks: Once again, tapping into the hive mind of folks that know Lycoming engines. I've got a Velocity with an IO-360 200 HP engine that's got two LSE Plasma II ignitions that were installed approximately 30 years ago. Apparently, at least SOME of the spark plug adapters are the original steel...

    I've gone soft - need help on some aero

    I need some guidance on an aerodynamic calculation (and not a particularly complex one, but I'm still flummoxed). I'm actually looking for the math to use here - not handwaving or qualitative arguments - I need the actual quantification :-). Here's the question. Assume I have two airplanes -...

    SDS Usage / Setup Report

    I've had some requests for an engine/SDS system report, as well as tuning information, so here you go. This is long and broken up into a few parts. It was originally posted to a couple of canard mailing lists, but I figured it might be useful here as well. Introduction - Overview: When I had...

    White Lightning Flight Report

    @BJC asked me to write a flight report of the White Lightning that I flew, so here you go. This will be WAY more than you asked for. A friend/customer with a COZY III apparently has way too much time on his hands and he picked up White Lightning N25WL as a project. When he got it, the plane...

    Opinions regarding Flying an Unregistered Aircraft

    So, lets say, hypothetically, that someone admitted on a public form that they had been flying an unregistered aircraft for some period of time. Besides the fact that they would, again hypothetically, be subject to substantial FAA civil penalties of up to $27,500 per flight occurrence, they'd...

    Airplane For Sale Varieze project plane for sale

    This Varieze, serial # 160, was started in 1976. It has been previously registered and flown as N289E, but is currently deregistered without an "N" number, registration or airworthiness certificate. A previous owner had reserved N26BG for it, but apparently that number was never used. The...

    Camp on Airport in IA?

    So after driving the F-350/Lance Truck Camper from CA to CT to get my son and then back again (for sightseeing, mostly to places I'd never been before), I now need to bring him back to CT to his fiance' and job, keeping Amazon Web Services from going under, along with the universe as we know it...

    COZY MKIV IP, Interior, Electrical work

    Folks: Not sure that "Completions" is the right sub-forum for this, but I didn't see anything more appropriate. So for the past (holy Nug, mother of Cthulhu) four months and about 400 hours, I've been working on my plane. I've completely sanded and repainted the interior (well, I paid a friend...
