corrosion

We are on the coast down here in south Texas, and probably live in one of the most corrosive environments in the nation. Corrosion will creep in anywhere the paint or primer (if painted), has not adhered to th...

Unless the instructor has prior knowledge of the act about to take place, he has no reason to believe it would. Other than being the pilot in command of the aircraft, how can we make a judgement call on his actions? A passenger can release a seatbelt open a door and be out of that door in less than ...

55 tail section
Does anyone know of the whereabouts of a '55 C170 tail section? I'm not looking for the tail feathers, but the pulleys, brackets, eyebolts, etc; for the tailwheel steering control system. Any help would be appreciated.

fuel selector valve rebuild
Bruce,
Where did you order your seals and gaskets from? Did they have the required parts in kit form? I'm in the process of rebuilding mine and appreciate the heads up and parts information.
Thanks, Jon B

Good story! Isn't flying in a circular search pattern and looking out the window kind of like putting your forehead on a baseball bat and running circles around it for a while?! I once took a doctor, (vet), out to his ranch where he had some stranded cattle. He showed up in shorts, suspenders, tee s...
