Ron,

That is a great video. Thanks for posting it. Look how fast they buit those wheras today it takes months to build even one single engine general aviation airplane.

I'm with you Frank. In my areas it all comes from the same bulk distribution facility or pipeline. As long as I get it from a place that does a lot of business so I know the fuel is fresh, I can't tell the difference. A friend of mine, now retired, was the Exxon distributor. He also had a number of ...

The tri gear was removed during a major repair/rebuild after the plane had a major crash in the 1960's but I don't recall any paper work on the removal, it was just repaired/rebuilt to the original conventional ...

KG,

I don't know where you are from, but this summer should be a good convention to try for your first, since it should be very cool flying in Colorado.

We flew our plane to six conventions, drove our motor home to four conventions, and took the train to one convention.

I am just curious as to how many I170A annual Conventions users of this forum have attended in the past. Carolyn and myself have attended eleven and enjoyed each one very much (except the three days I had to spend in the San Diego Hospital) while everyone else was having a great time in San Diego. E...
