    Waxing with an Electric Random Orbiting Buffer

    I agree, they do work very well with no swirls (if used with reasonable care, that is). I used one similar to yours before a friend gave me a pneumatic Cyclo polisher (the $350 type!). It works great but probably not much better than the one you just bought.

    Let me put it this way...I've done much more flying than you and in much more complex airplanes than you and probably to much more interesting places than you. But back to the real point... Since you you seem to be struggling with this let me try to explain it to you AGAIN. I wasn't giving...

    Jim I didn't ask for advice...or a lecture...on how to fly my Six, or any airplane for that matter. I also wasn't giving advice....or a lecture. Go fly your plane how ever you want to. Anymore questions?

    Maybe that's because I don't need the advice, nor did I ask for it.

    I'm quite sure it won't fast Eddie that's why I do it that way.

    I don't sump my main drain before every flight. In fact, I don't sump it more than a few times a year. I know what the POH says about doing it but because of where the sump is located in the fuel system I don't see much need in it. I sump each of the four tanks with a GAATS jar and stick them...

    X-Grip vs Cradle, thoughts?

    Are those forward facing grips for a smaller device or for gripping to release the ipad?

    X-Grip vs Cradle, thoughts?

    My Note 3 (phone), while not quite as big as the iPad mini, is fairly large. I use it in the x grip and it does swivel side to side in the grip (as it is designed to do) but certainly not easily enough to move when I don't want it to.

    do you ever feel like the forces are working against you?

    It's a sign from the almighty aviation gods...they want you to hit the books! You don't want to disappoint the aviation gods! :D

    Overgross is not a problem. The real question is can a VFR guy fly in IMC legally. Welcome Hulk! Hey are you THE Hulk...I mean...you know...the real one?

    Who lives at an airport?

    The hangar door is actually three large (20x12') "garage" type doors. The two center collumns are attached to a hoist and swing to the side after the doors are raised. The doors allow an opening of 45x12' (hangar dimension is 47 deep by 60 wide). I can also raise only one or two doors if needed...

    Speaking of man caves...this is mine... Actually the man cave part (hangar) is on the left side of the house.
