RE: Weight Requirements

I thought we're flying pattern, not handicap golfing or bracket racing or "asking for lengths" ala Pinks. Everybody knows the rules coming in and has the opportunity to choose powerplants and...

RE: New Piedmont Focus 90/110

question about comp arf integral landing gear

I'm looking for replacement landing gear for my Brio and a friend (thanks Anthony!) suggested that the CompArf Integral landing gear might be suitable. The price sure is right (product #700409 - $49)...

After 190 flights, the ES composites landing gear on my Brio is starting to delaminate on one leg. No fault of ES -- our field is thick grass that decellerates the plane like Velcro and really...
