  2. Hey Leni, Im thinking a certain someone, (no need to mention any names)took some fabulous, excellent, great shots of u flyin back from lodge and Im thinkin

    maybe one of those great shots needs to be your avatar. Okay? Okay. Just sayin. Your Brothers other half. Much love.


  3. The article says it is a [city] ordinance preventing a/c operations on park property.

    I would highly doubt that it is noted on the sectional chart. A good reminder of knowing where you are going and what their policies are ahead of time.

    Gotta love government run amok.

    There is a ordinance that says you have to have a permit to have any motorized item on the lake . And that is why they were fined. You have to have a permit even for a gas ice auger to fish with on that particular lake. The Faa was called and went out with the police and could not find any wrong doings by the individuals and they let them fly the planes off. It is the City that is spanking them for not having the permit.

    Fly safe fly low fly slow

  6. :beerchug:  Congrats BRO its been a long one for you . Now its time to play with her and fly the tires off. catch ya on the flyby .

  7. The original wheels are made by Douglas and the part #is 001-01 . these are 8x6 3b-3n 3/100 , you have to drill then other 3 holes .

    Also you have to weld on the lugs for the brake rotors.

    For a heavier wheel use part # 001-02


  8. Well the fuel iussue is finally done and working . When i rejetted for our colder temps It turns out it was just to damn rich and was creating a flamew front going by the egt raising the temps, and then flooding the engine out at wide open throttle . when i rejet back to normal sealevel It runs like a top and egt are ok . GO figure . I am installing a airfuel ratio gauge so i can see just where my jetting is versus the egt gauge . It should read 14.7 for the best performance but i would like it to be around 14 for peace of mind and variance in temp and altitude. well see and I will give a update.
