    Is it hot enough for you?

    Last weekend the controller at Ft Campbell asked what altitude I was going to fly and I said 65deg. I heard all of the controllers laughing.

    Need to go wireless at home

    My Belkin54g is 2 floors up and 75 feet across from my computer in the basement and I get 4 of 5 bars on a linksys router. I found a remote ant works the best by getting it away from all of the cables in the back.

    [NA] 1999 VW Passat ?'s

    On the Brake light, It sounds like the switch on the emergency brake. Disconnect one wire (and tape it). See if the problem goes away. On the tire roar rotate the tires and if the problem stays on the rear you probably have a rear wheel bearing going out (easy and cheap to replace)

    What compelled you to get your IR?

    I am starting in Jul because I am tired of playing safety pilot to my brother in-law while he gets his Instrument every time we go up. I want in on some flying too instead of just being a set of eyes in my plane.

It prob started with a slow moving rotor and somebody thought "wouldn't it be cool if the rotor was still". The manuevers being done should have varied the rotor rpm at least to a small...
