Reiff. The Reiff heat soaks all components better. The heat from the band radiates out to the cylinder heads and internally in the case, main bearings and crank. The oil pad that comes with the kit heats the oil. Get the oil cooler heat pad option and that will heat the cooler. If you cover...

Ahhhhh.....NOPE! Aint happening!

I live in SW Michigan and love the state of Michigan, well most of it anyway. Lived in many parts of the country and grew up in Alaska. The winters here are not bad at all. Summer and fall are incredible! Spring is good too. Lots of things to do here. I have not found the mosquito’s to be...

Check your life insurance policy concerning flying experimental airplanes.

Ford trucks are best.

Hey guy’s, one thing to keep in mind is a flat tire and something parked under the wing. A buddy had a flat tire on his Husky and when walked into the hangar the wing tip was pretty darn close to the ground. Had there been something under that wing it would have been bad. He did have over...

No, they didn’t annual it.

I bought an airplane years ago that hadn’t had an annual in 5 or 6 years. The owner wasn't too concerned with “paperwork” and legality, a “bootleg” kinda guy. All preventive maintenance was done and documented in the logs, just no annuals. The airplane was pristine and went thru pre buy...

JDM, Thank you very much for the info! Kurt

I love the videos showing super short take off’s and landings. Never mind the wind howling over the camera mic. What you never see is a windsock or any other wind indicator in the fram.

Fantastic info Paul, thank you very much for taking the time to inform all of us! Kurt

Add a hundred grand to your budget and you will get an “ok” airplane, not a cream puff but pretty good airplane. The market is hot, 50k wont come close to a “6”, hard to find a good 172 for that kind of money. Kurt

Thought it was about the Cirrus Jet.‍

I would still have your prop balanced after you install new engine mounts. 33 year old mounts, yikes!

Then why do they have it if they cant sell it?

No wasn't interested in where to find the information, I already know how to do that. I was wondering about you and thought it would be best to go straight to the source and ask you directly.

Doc, do you work for the FAA or are you in any connected to the FAA or any other government agency?
