A bill of sale that includes language releasing her from any and all liability is sufficient. 

I cant figure if the guy was trying to land or take off.

Watch the plane crash 8 seconds in on video.

Here is another crash with a PA 28 involved.  Wing apparently fell off.

Saw this in the news today.

If you have the sling seat attach the back bottom of seat as far back as you can (if you haven't already).  A couple of inches can make a difference.

Nice Bird.  Congrats

I was searching the internet for custom Rotax 912 uls decals to put on plane but came up empty handed.  Do any of you have a led?

Thanks

Update....I saw on a previous post that a Kitfox 4 lexan turtle deck can be trimmed to fit the Avid Mark 4 / Model C.  Can anyone clarify that's the case?

Thanks

Thanks again.  This forum is awesome. 

Where can a Avid enthusiast find a sold lexan turtle deck for Avid C Model?  Check out the video.

Thanks for all the advice.  I measured the axles and they are 3/4 exactly.  I think pounding out the old ones created the problem and Hysol per Tjay may be the solution.

 A bird like that would open up Alaska to all kinds of possibilities.  Helicopter plane combo.  When they get around 15,000 Ill order one.  LOL.  Never happen.

Its definitely 3/4".  When I removed the original AVID axle I had to pound it out a little.  The Matco axle slides in very easy. It would be a very micro thin sleeve if one was available.  I was told if it had any space at all it would damage the receiving end.

Good Afternoon,

I purchased 3/4" axles from Matco.  The axle's are slightly smaller than the original AVID axles which created a little slop where the axles fit to landing gear.  Have any of you experienced this and how did you get it tight again.  Is there a standard sleeve I can order?

Thanks

I installed a stainless firewall and bought fire blanket at the aircraft store and installed on cockpit side.  Looks great.  I got the stainless sheet metal from a local sheet metal fab shop.

That is a very cool video.  Gave me some ideas.  Thanks for sharing.

Weather has been nice for flying and its not getting dark till 8:00 so after work flying is now possible.  Took a short video of flying over a moose and landing on Lazy Lake.

Curious if any of you have installed the bubble doors on your AVID and how do you like them.

Is AK Flyer Bob in Alaska?  Does he have those Amphib Floats for Sale?

Me and my wife followed the Iditarod mushers today on the Susitna and Yetna River.  Beautiful day.  Calm Air.

Me and Randy took off Sunday afternoon and did some mountain flying.  Dead calm air.  I was tracking Randy's trail and you can see him ahead of me.  Video is somewhat boring but still fun to make.

Hi Leni,

What does the final design look like.  Do you have a drawing? Picture? 

Actually the carbon cub flies the most.

LOL.  I have tried to talk him into letting me borrow one for the weekend but since my AVID could fit in his baggage compartment he doesn't feel I am qualified. LOL
