They're charging a flat $15/order now, unless it's over $200, then it's free shipping.? The more the better.
Tubes are $123 now, and tires are $151 !?!

Thanks for thinking of us, Tim.
I can't? think of anything at the moment.

Does anyone else need any aircraft parts?
I'm going to put in an order at Vans for more nutplates, screws, ...stuff like that...
Need anything?

Wednesday lunch at the Hangar!!
Rain or shine it¡¯s lunch on Wednesday at Mark¡¯s and Alex¡¯s Hangar! If we have to issue rubber duckies and/or water wings we¡¯ll be there.?
P.S. the night before is the EAA meeting where Steve Murray will be going through the resurrection of his RV-10 following the flood in September.?
Both events will be entertaining and worthy of the pleasure of your company. Bring your own food for lunch on Wednesday. There may be some extras - there usually are.?

Whittaker Warrington is bringing his airplane at last! ETA this evening if all goes as planned. I¡¯d like to have a reception for him. He has been loyally paying his rent since last summer in anticipation of having his airplane but delay after delay at his restoration shop in California kept it from happening.?

Re: Rudder Malfunction Suspected In Fatal Cessna 310 Crash - AVweb
One of them must have been built upside down.
JM the elevators on an F4 are like an inverted Bonanza. Sorta. On Fri, May 9, 2025 at 10:25 Jerry Marstall via <jerrylm1986= [email protected]> wrote: I was taught that the elevator makes the plane turn. Jm
The report says: Initial examination of the wreckage revealed that the rudder cables failed due to tension overload, and the rudder trim was set to a significant left input.?
I can identify with that. In my case and in this case the airplane was not trimmed properly prior to takeoff. Apparently, the pilot (in both cases) did not recognize the out of trim condition prior to the flight.?
What bothers me about the 310 mishap is the aircraft never climbed more than a few hundred feet. There is no indication the elevator was affected. Altitude can be your friend, giving you time to sort out the problem. Differential power can help a lot, too, in a case like this.

For some potentially offensive Monday morning quarterbacking:
I thought bank angle -- not the rudder -- makes an aircraft turn?
"Air traffic control audio captured a pilot reporting an issue with the rudder, stating they were only able to make left turns."
Shouldn't you be able to develop "dead feet" in this situation and split the power a bit between those Continental IO-470/520s to do what you need to, even if the rudder was locked/completely inoperative for some reason?
