    Top Rudder-You gotta see this

    This got emailed to me as a wmv, but I found it on youtube, also. Kinda makes the point of always pushing on the top rudder when in trouble. Be sure to read the comments of the disbelievers below the video... (you gotta go to youtube, what makes a pilot mess his pants)

    Beginners epoxy question

    I was scanning the internet trying to look for a replacement for Mr. Fiberglass epoxy when I came across a term that I never heard of: "infusion epoxy". Can someone tell me what infusion epoxy is and what it is primarily used for? I am accustomed only with Aeropoxy and the above mentioned Mr...

    MZ201 questions

    I remember that someone was familiar with the MZ201 and I have a few questions (I was thinking that Mark had one). The web site does not give the fuel consumption at the various power levels. Does anyone have a good estimate? The front page states it is a 30 hp motor, but the graph shows...

    Cloud Dancer 7/8 Jenny

    I thought I would show how the 'Spirit of America' came about and how I did the process. Hopefully, this will encourage some of you to start your dream project regardless of your circumstances. It started with 'Pappy', a very elderly gentleman at Mathis Airport in Gwinnet County, having 2...

    Fighter ePlans

    My curiosity had gotten the better of me when I had a few extra dollars to spend, so I got the Fighter ePlans from Plansdelivery.com. Does anyone else have any experience with this plane or know about it? The plans seem a little incomplete and emails for support go unanswered. I particularly...
