Whacked a deer with my 2004 GL1800 on July 4th @ 70 mph. I hit the dear at precisely mid center and launched it over top of me. Pretty uneventful, kept the bike upright, came to a controlled stop, and had no injuries. Just like an airplane, if the **** hits the fan, don't give up on...

In front of my house yesterday - I didn't have context at the time. Dog was barking a lott and I was working from home. Got up to finally investigate and heard the doorbell ring then some guy driving away in his truck once I made it to the door...

I've been working on building a 5 cylinder radial engine for my Dad for Christmas. Obviously this isn't going to be something you can add fuel, air, and spark to without a death wish. But it's still pretty cool to look at since the pistons and valves will all move properly. I'm half tempted...

Does rucsoundings work for anyone else? I can't seem to get any data to load. Really hoping they get this fixed soon if it's down...I need it tomorrow. http://rucsoundings.noaa.gov/

She'll be joining me at Gastons.

Who all has arrived? Be nice to have one thread we can check to see who is where and coordinate in. I'm in the North North 40, row 560, white and red Malibu N9102H.

So, most flight school websites totally suck, and don't tell you much of anything. Ours certainly isn't perfect. But..I strive for it to be. So tell me..what am I missing? http://www.nebraskaflight.com/ On my list to do yet: - Add a training syllabus and cost estimate for private...

I'd like anyone who is an airport manager to send me a private message, I'd like to chat with you and promise it'll be worth your time. I'd rather not say more though in this thread :)

Drone insurance is now a thing the aviation brokers are selling:

About a year ago I saw the post on one of these aviation forums about using a dental cam to look inside cylinders. I ordered one off eBay for about $20 and it sat on my desk for a good year before I decided to give it a shot. Weather was nice today, so headed to the airport, I had to dremel...

Seems like hardly anyone uses our chat anymore. It's a damn shame. Some great things have came out of that chat room. Come and say hello tonight :) You can access it by clicking the "Live Chat" on the upper right of PoA.

I need to fly into PWK tomorrow leaving on Friday. Personal flight, aircraft is a Cessna 205. Which FBO is going to screw me less?

I've been working on starting a small flight school and need some graphic design work. At this point really just looking for a logo and a flyer designed. Not a ton of money to spend but not particularly picky either. Pretty much anything is better than what I can come up with. Anyone...

Pulled the mags on the Flybaby and the left mag has a decent amount of engine oil in it. Right does not. I assume this must be the seal on the shaft on the magneto. Anyone ever replace these before? Something I can do easily without special tools or something I'm better off having someone...

Anyone have a service manual for Bendix SF4RN-8 magnetos in digital form? I have a paper copy, but it's missing pages, my Google Fu hasn't been successful. Mine work fine, but I need to pull them to replace the gaskets, and figured it'd be nice to have a manual to make sure the insides are...

Anyone planning on going to the Antique fly-in this weekend? I'm thinking I'll fly the Flybaby there sometime on Saturday, camp next to it, and return home on Sunday. http://www.antiqueairfield.com/flyins/attending.html

Access to PoA this morning has been intermittent and it may go down again. We're currently responding to what is likely a DDOS attack against another part of our network and PoA isn't a priority at this point.

Anyone from Corona that could potentially look at an airplane for me that I'm moderately interested in?
