Subject: | Re: Cutting process and accuracy |
I'm in the bandsaw camp. Scribe a line, cut and plane. Joint remaining surface,
lather rinse repeat.
I freehand accurately to a line, no jigs and such, not necessary.

I'd say if you want to instruct in a champ, just make sure the gear isn't slap
worn out. Many champs, and Chiefs, suffer from collapsed springs and the belief
that the oil in them isn't important. These are difficult machines to manage
in decent winds on concrete.
The tandam thing is miserable if you don't have a decent intercom. Not that difficult
in a enclosed cockpit.
It's a miserable adverse yaw machine, which DOES force you to learn to fly coordinated
and keep the ailerons in the correct spot if the plane is MOVING, at all!
If a 65hp machine, you'll never be able to teach someone to fly at pattern altitude...
Some students just won't be feasible. 85 much better, beefed up 85 probably
the way to go.
Considering the other two machines, I'd prefer the champ by a long shot. If you
want regular work, the other two. While you will be a rare bird, there aren't
many folks really wanting to take on a taildragger.
I LOVE instructing in my 120. Don't even flinch at a direct 15 to 18 kt direct
crosswind.
