    Alton Bay N480RD

    Don't forget to practice landing without using the brakes. Numerous COG members have landed at Alton Bay. I'm not one of them. Sven, Radu, I think Hopkins, and others. Years ago.

    Gear Checkvalve

    Aerodyme had some replacements while back, though I don't recall if it was a special purchase or something they were planning to keep in stock. Oh ... just checked and see Jim's post at #83 above, from last year.

    To KSAW in MI’s U.P. Yesterday

    I hope you read the safety label to make sure it was suitable for use on aluminum. Some of that stuff can do more damage than good.

    New owner N1250J

    Yeah, interesting. I heard Dennis on the UNICOM departing as I was arriving (and saw him fly past as I was turning to downwind). Then I saw the other Commander by the fuel pump as I taxied to parking. Then I saw your airplane leave and return, though didn't know it was you until later. I...

    Sky Drive flying car

    Why is this called a car and not a helicopter? I don't see wheels for driving on streets (you know, like a car). https://www.cnn.com/2020/08/29/us/flying-car-successful-test-in-japan-trnd/index.html

    Night Flight into Toronto Pearson (CYYZ) in a 112 !

    There are a lot of folks around here landing at Kennedy, LaGuardia, and Newark, sometimes two or all three in the same day. I'm told they won't allow touch-and-go, so you actually have to land full stop, then taxi back around for departure.

    Let's just get some stickers for this year, that we can slap onto plain mugs from Walmart. :rolleyes:

    Sun n Fun 2020

    Yeah, kind of mixed thoughts on this change. It now falls on the week preceding Mother's Day, and I was planning to be in FL that weekend anyway. I just wasn't planning on a week in the Florida sunshine of early May. It does screw up my flights, and even though the airfare early that week is...

    What does Lycoming know about 100LL Replacement?

    ... the sealant in the tanks, the o-rings in various locations in the fuel delivery system, the hoses connecting to the engine. All those have to be certified for the new fuel. I'm reasonably sure the metal itself is fine.

    Commander down, glad all ok

    Just make sure you have plenty of renter's insurance. If anything happens there will always be a way for the school and/or their insurer to come after you. As for using your own airplane, I know some schools will do so if they are added to your policy as "additional insured". To my knowledge...

    New Partnership w/EarthX batteries

    Interesting, though will need a new battery charger/maintainer. Even though it's TSO, since it's lighter that might require a 337 (due to change of weight/balance). I also have to wonder about whether losing weight that far aft is such a good thing, particularly since the 114 is nose-heavy...

    Are you sure you have the name correct? I see you misspelled it elsewhere. http://aerodyme.com/
