    The DC 3 does in fact turn with the wind. Here is a link about it: http://explorenorth.com/library/aviation/cf-cpy.html

    I like the idea of several times, just in case everyone can't be to one. Personally I'll make room for any of the get togethers that are done while I'm there.

    I'm not sure if that is a wind-T, or static, Looks Great tho!  Although I don't think I saw it move, but maybe no wind for a change there.
    Good folks in Whitehorse - Western Auto got his butt chewed by his wife for being late to something while he stayed overtime to rebuild my alternator on a Saturday evening.

    You guys are talking about my home town!  Ed, I'll take your suggestion to the mayor. Next time we're getting drunk that is.

    Luke,  Make sure you try it with neutral and full-back stick too - My knees are about 5 inches across and upper legs about 7 inches - maybe if you are skinny, you could get by with it - Dholly, from what he has posted,  probably cant.....Maybe this is what the bubble doors are for?

    Thanks Ed. That makes sense. I'll probably do a quick mockup to see what the clearance to the outside (door, etc.) would look like. It's not really a large difference. I was just curious.

    We'll only be there from Wednesday morning through Saturday night. I wondered if this had just fallen off.

    I think you are going to have a problem there unless you have a Magnum - trying to get the stick full over when your knee/leg is resting against the side of the cockpit - believe that is why they spaced the sticks toward the center more.  They gave you more room on the pedals for your big boots !

    Control stick spacing
    I'm planning to make some changes to my control system that will include re-making the front control stick assembly. I noticed that the spacing on the front sticks is about 14 7/8" from center to center. The center to center distance of the ruder pedal pairs is about 17 1/2". It looks like the reason for the closer spacing on the sticks is to accommodate the aileron bell crank on the left side. Does anyone see any problem with making the stick spacing match the pedals? The bell crank won't be a factor anymore.
     
    Thanks,
    Luke D.

    Dale,
          Thanks for the T-shirt offer, but in my old age I have gotten paranoid about getting skin cancer again, so long sleeves and cap are the uniform of the day.   Hope you have a nice time meeting the guys at Osh.  Go to Matco site and find the info on Geometry of Brake pedals and MCs - good info.
