    Ozark hits home

    My wife and I bought a property at MO06 last year. I just took a new job that will allow me to work remotely, so we're going to start building soon! Last week we flew down to see if we get 5G coverage (turns out we do), but we had a funny surprise when talking to one of the neighbors. He said...

    Clarity Aloft

    Not sure what forum to post this in, but thought I'd share. I bought a CA Classic in late 2017/early 2018. Over time, the wiring on the earpieces began to fray, first the insulation, then the wiring itself. Eventually, I started getting an intermittent connection, then none at all. I sent the...

    Replacement Basic Med Documentation

    Does anyone know how to get replacement Basic Med documentation? I've got quite the string of bad luck here: 1. I misplaced my docs 2. My doctor is no longer in the area 3. The FAA website is clear you can order a replacement Class I/II/III, but says nothing about Basic Med 4. I called Oklahoma...

    Rolls Royce Crecy

    I just watched an interesting video about this engine and its development during the war. Very impressive technology and performance for the time. This was a 26L V12, producing more than 2500hp. Wikipedia had a little more information about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolls-Royce_Crecy...

    KCID GA Ramp access?

    I was planning to fly to Cedar Rapids in the morning. I need to do some business in the morning, then leave around noon. It looks like Signature is the FBO there, and they charge a $300+ ramp fee, plus $2/gal more than the self-serve. I really don’t want to use their ramp or services. It...

    RV-9 with Rotax 915

    I’ve always thought this would be THE killer combination. 135hp up to 15,000 ft. Cruising WOT (almost) at 6,000, I only get 75%, or 120 hp. I often cruise higher and only get 60-65% (96-104hp). I already plan 155KTAS at 8gph, and with tip tanks, I have 46.5 gal useable. Seems like that...

    Check "shutting down airport" off my bucket list

    After 1300nm, just landed at the final destination of my trip. On touchdown, my right main tire immediately blew out. I skidded to a halt on the runway. For the life of me, I can't understand what happened. It wasn't my best landing, but it wasn't that bad, either. Fortunately, it was late at...

    GTX 45R Squawk input via GTN

    My Narco transponder Is on its way to greener pastures. I’m planning a panel upgrade to G3X Touch (experimental), but I’m not ready to do it all yet. Ideally, I want to replace the transponder now, and reuse it when I do the full panel. The GTX 45R is what I was planning for the...

    RV-9A weird pitch up

    I just noticed some strange behavior on a long XC. Trimmed out at altitude, cruise speed, autopilot on. All of a sudden the plane quickly pitched up, just for a second. I asked my daughter if she bumped the stick. Nope. 10 min later, I’m getting really hot, so I open the air vent wide open...

    Airport name on CTAF

    Ever go to an airport you’ve never been to before and announce “XXX traffic”, only to hear other traffic say “YYY”? Two examples I’ve had: “Stearman Traffic”....nope “Benton Traffic” “Branson Traffic”....nope “Point Lookout Traffic” Sometimes it’s not obvious at all. How do you figure it out...

    Close Call

    Had a close call I thought I'd share...as always, please don't bash...just sharing and hope it will help someone. Had some low ceilings the other night, and since temperatures were finally warm enough not to have icing, I thought I'd go shoot some approaches in actual. The wife likes to fly...
