I picture of the new RV-15 snuck out to the internet last week, Van's was quick enough to own it and publish some pictures and videos. https://www.vansaircraft.com/rv-15/ Video of first released flight https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sHK-B230sY https://i.postimg.cc/kD3Kc0D6/image.png https://i.post...

I just changed the size of the thumbnails to full size for this plugin. Seems to work much better? Also, to use PostImage to attach pics to this forum, you don't need to upload from a file - you can copy and paste the pictures from other websites. On windows, after I have copied the image to the cli...

I recently purchased this $10.99 BT->1/8" stereo jack BT receiver for my old pickup truck off of Amazon. I needed to make a 1000 mile trip and the thought of listening to commercial ridden FM radio just wasn't appealing. The USB connector acts as just power. I already have BT built into my audio pan...

Anyone hungry for an obscene amount of perfectly cooked beef? I know I am! Tuesday seems to work really well for us. We aim to get there around 5:30. If you have a strong desire for a certain meat cut, please call ahead and arrange it! Who's going? Who's driving? How many can you fit if you're drivi...

While at Sun and Fun Marc and I ran into Bob Willis (Osh Welcome Wagon Driver, RV-6) and the first words out of his mouth were "What day is the Otter??".

Tuesday has worked well for us in the past, so it will this year also!

This is my solution and it seems to be holding up for about 500 hours now.

I found a new image hosting site, postimg.cc which seems to integrate in nicely with the forum software. Super easy to add photos. https://i.postimg.cc/QKNRm3S2/Rivet-Bangers-Image-Hosting.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/QVXGhQsf/Rivet-Bangers-Image-Hosting-2.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/BtMW6jn4/Rivet-Bangers...

Steve, Very awesome! One idea I just had was sort of a tailwheel chock I could attach to my hangar floor. Right now I used a piece of blue painters tape to let me know how far back to pull my plane. Occasionally when distracted I pull it back too far, luckily never leading to any dented metal. This ...

Unfortunately I think Chad's site is gone forever.

I also installed Sam James' wheelpants. Do this Google Search for references on my site.

Very impressive! I have always wanted to get into 3D printing. Does EAA still give away a free copy of SolidWorks with a valid membership?

Paulie is driving Painless and myself
Arie is driving Mitch, Marc and Gegeous Greg
Chad may meet us there depending on work?

I think we have all of the logistics figured out?? We are all planning on a 4pm departure time. See you all there!

Tuesday works well for me too! Can't wait to see all of you soon!

My recommendation is get there at 5pm, so meet up around 4pm with your ride?

Do we need to be concerned about prime rib availability? In years passed, we’ve occasionally had to make reservations. I’m asking since in 2019 they ran out of prime rib. Along the same lines, do we need to set expectations as to the head count that will be showing up? A few years ago I did attempt...

Bruce,

No, I am not formation qualified. To be honest I am not a fan of formation outside of people I absolutely trust. Too easy for things to go wrong, and I have had too many instances of "close calls". Smoke install was just for fun!

I have been sitting on the parts for a smoke system for well over a year. I even bought a 55 gallon drum of smoke oil in the fall. I have been dragging my feet installing the smoke system because I couldn't figure out some of the basics - such as where to mount the pump. I wanted it as removable as ...

Well dangit. How am I supposed to get in contact with my Russian mail order bride now???

VLAD THE RUSSIAN!

Tonight I upgraded the forum software to the latest level. As you regulars have probably noticed, the spammers had gotten a little out of control as of lately. The new software should hopefully make it more difficult for them to sell us the little blue pills CJ eats like tic-tacs! :lol: Let me know ...

Hey Mike, I am working with GRT on an issue when the 440 is driving the A/P through the Sport it will fly through a fix before starting its turn, this does not happen with the 440 driving the A/P directly. Are you seeing anything similar? Hmm, I don't recall if I was driving my AP from the GRT or d...

Which is about the same thickness as a thick sharpie!
