    Parts For Sale For Sale

    Selling this helmet for a friend, he has used it for flying in a T-6 and said he doesn't need it anymore. He says everything works as it's supposed to and the clear and dark visors are in good shape. He is asking $600.00. If you have questions, I'll pass them along. Thanks, Bob

I have camped at the end of Schaick Ave, backed up to Poberenzy rd and Hwy 41. There was a vacant lot to one side so we didn't have neighbors on that side but the foot...

    BasicMed

    My BasicMed is coming due pretty soon and I was wondering if anyone else has done this recently. If so, any advice on what I should study up on, and where. I did it last time on the AOPA web site. I hate taking test, I had to test several times a year for 10 years working in the Nuclear...

    New LSA Ruling

    Has anyone heard anymore about the FAA's Light Sport Aircraft changes that they have been considering? I think Dan Johnson mentioned in one of his videos it was supposed to come out sometime in 2021, but I don't know for sure. Bob

    IPad/ Foreflight

    My wife gave me a new ipad 10.2 for my birthday last week, I use it for Foreflight. What I wanted was an ipad mini, the cockpit of a Cessna 150 is pretty tight and since I haven't gotten down to my target weight of 190 lbs, I need all the space I can get. She graciously offered to take the 10.2...

    I went flying

    Yep, I did it again, I committed aviation yesterday. First, a little history, PPL in 1974 and active for a few years, then, as they say, life got in the way. Traveling for work, kids and no flying for 30 years, then, sporadic flying when I could find a rental and an instructor near where I was...

    Formation flying

    I know this is a Homebuilt forum, I've been on here a while, even though I'm not building, so I thought I would at least post some flying stuff. There is a guy that has a C-150 for rent about 40 miles from me and it's not too expensive so I try to get there about every couple of weeks at...

    VW Engine

    Saw an 1835 VW engine for sale locally for $1200, no fan or shroud or generator. It's not converted for aircraft use, but was wondering if that's a fair price. It's on an engine stand so it can be demonstrated that it runs. Bob

    Airventure arrivals.

    I'm sure someone on here can suggest something. What would be a good time to watch a lot of arrivals at Airventure ? I have thought about getting there on Sunday, thinking there would be a lot of planes coming in on Monday, but then again, I'm not sure. What say y'all ? Bob
