Don,

bumming a bit because I found out a close friend is having a surprise party in Seattle for his 50 birthday the same week-end...maybe we should go to both!

Hangar Flying / Cockpit heater system
« on: April 19, 2008, 11:56:06 PM »
if your plane and canopy are tight solar heat is very adequate...keeping feet warm in the nose is the biggest challange which I solved with electric (wired) motorcycle socks (expandable to pants vest etc).

Because my wife gets cold easily I would like to install a 12 volt outlet in the back so that she can plug in a small 12 volt electric blanket ...that would be great!

Hangar Flying / night vfr

I was told once:

check list for engine out at night...

1) Turn on your landing light.
2) If you don't like what you see,...turn off the landing light...

Also told that if you lose and engine during the day your have a 90% chance of walking away...during the night make that 10%....

What do you guys think fo flying at night?

Hangar Flying / Long ez vs. rv6
« on: September 18, 2007, 11:25:39 PM »
Just want to say hello. This is the first week that feels like fall in Eugene. As  some of you know I purchased an rv 6 last winter with hopes that it could solve my delima of owning both a cessna 140 & the long ez . On paper it appears that the 6 could perform both missions. Story short, the long is such a sweet flyer that I can't bare to part with it. The six is for sale if anyone knows someone who wants one...$52k with IFR instruments, 310 tt,160hp lyc

Might trade for the right   cozy.

All the best,

Dave
