Bob, I'm about 135 lbs soaking wet, so W&B should not be an issue. I think I have a closer option to get some tailwind time if we can manage to mesh schedules. That being said, I would like to visit

Brian, Do you have to be PIC for the hour in a Tailwind (can you be acting as non-PIC CFI)? If CFI works I am willing to pay you for a BFR assuming we both fit in my airplane and you come to Abilene

Attached is where I mounted my elt! It's directly under my baggage floor and just behind the passenger seat which allows easy access by remove seat only. I was thinking about putting an access door in

Just want to thank everyone for the responses. This group is a wealth of good information that really helps keep things

Where NOT to put ELT and antenna, works great but almost inaccessible for an old man............?

Mine varies from 1/8 on the top half to slightly more on the bottom. I have a baffle behind the spinner, attached to the cowl halves, that seals the entire area. Baffle seal material contacts the
