Mixing Automotive Paint?

A part is whatever quantity that you desire. If you will need a pint of paint for your project, you can call a "part" 5 oz. Two parts "A" (10 oz) +one part "B"(5 oz)= 15 oz of mixed product.

Preparing for a potential dead stick landing

Just remember that the plane WILL touch the ground. Pulling back on the elevator WILL NOT keep it in the air longer. Let the plane continue to fly, airspeed is your friend.
No airspeed, no options....

Bridi Kaos vs Utter Chaos ?

Unsoldering the Solder on My Cub Floats

It may be necessary to cut and remove the wire used to tie the parts together prior to soldering so that you have access to the solder where the 5/32 wires contact each other.

penetration- regarding gliders

Basically, the only source of "power" for a glider is gravity. The more weight, the more power. However as weight increases, so must lift.

Help me decide between OS 91FX and Satio 91SGK

I am surprised at the near unanimous vote for the O.S. Why do most of the pattern fliers use 4 strokes?
I don't think that I could fit anything larger than 91 up front, so I will go with the O.S....

Any place to fly near Needles CA or Bullhead AZ?

I recently moved to Fort Mohave and see a lot of hills and the wind is always blowing. Is there a place to fly slope planes around here? I don't mean thermal flying either.
