I'm a heavey equipment operator, welder and mechanic by trade. What I do depands on what hat im wearing for the day. Never went to college. Don't know a lot about anything. But I know this. If I don't fill my water cooler in the morning no one is going to do it for me and Im not going to have anythi...

I have a friend that does this abit. He use's a brown paper bag; A little bigger than a lunch bag but smaller than a A+P shopping bag. He say's you want the bag to hold the contents with about four or five inchs of outtage left over. Once you have gotten the desired size bag you will need some strin...

Now would that be 90 psi on a 3/8 hose, or 90psi on a 1/2 inch hose?

As student I had all the little wijets but no far/aim. When I went for my oral interveiw I snagged the FBO's on my way down the hall. Anyway I just bought one (2005) and found another use for it beside it's duty's as a coster. :) Try looking up 91.503 section (a) first item on the list. Now before m...

When I was a student I had engine out landings pounded in to my head. The reason for this I was told was because people blow that on there check ride all the time. So I got in the habit of making all my landings simulated engine failures. Still do it at untowered fields. Good habit, bad habit I don'...

nothing like a little political disscusion to get people's tails up on there back's. Isn't it great to live in a country where we can express our beliefs openly with no fear of repercussions other than having our feelings stepped on, instead of our heads. I for one like the way the forums go, they s...

Just curious, how old a cassing will they recap? I know that in the trucking world DOT has a five year limit on cassing life. I just had to throw away eight cassings and buy new tires at $320 a pop. TP

Dave, the local flight school here installed millennium cylinders in there trainers a year or two ago. I'm not awere of them haveing any problems with them. I can ask how many hours they have on there oldest replacement if you like. Oh they put them in there C 150'3/152's/172's and there J3. TP.

Have a friend that used to chase ducks with a wing tip across glassy water until he dipped it. He and the student came out unhurt. I don't know what plane he did this in, I'll have to ask him some time. I do know the RAF didn't think much of it. Bet that was a engine out explaination. TP

I was out at the airport the other day doing the bumm thing and trying a j3 cub on for size, got a lot of laugh's out of that. When everyone's sides hurt to much to laugh anymore they pried me out an we went onto other thing's such as admireing a 1955 170B that was visiting from a privite strip not ...

Have you poured the floor yet? Proably so, but if you haven't you might want to consider holding your floor elevation up one inch higher than your door theshold. It keeps the water out , although it makes for a bump. No worse than the angle iron tracks that some hanger doors have. TP

AAh yes, Brought to you by the good people at Homeland security; but another goverment agency to protect us. And run up our deficit. TP

Harold, Law inforcement, Fire, Rescue and probably other agency's can have a TFR put in place over a area while they work. In EMS we do it to keep the new's media back so they don't intrefear with ops. There is a way around it however. I don't have a explainasion for you in the crematory insident. P...

None taken dave. Where I live I'm considered a new comer. TP
