What does it say about the voting aviation enthusiast that Top Gun
was voted the "greatest aviation movie of all time"? (EAA Hotline)
It didn't get my vote...I voted for anything with pistons...

I don't know if it was the greatest movie or not but that movie cost me
almost $15K. I had been away from aviation for a while and my divorce was
just final. Went to see Top Gun and started looking for an airplane to buy
the very next day. Bought a Cherokee 140 a few days later. That's a true
story.

Yep! I'd rather vote for The Flight of the Phoenix . That's real
home-built aviation! ... or should I say: desert-built? :-)

The movie that I always wanted to see is Hell's Angels, a WW I movie
produced by Howard Hughes. There is an epic just on the making of that
movie.

Yes! I am not the only guy on the planet who holds a torch for "Flight Of
The Phoenix"! As a life-time model aircraft builder, I like the "aircraft
engineer's" lines when he is discovered to be a model aircraft builder. He
defends his craft by pointing out that the model aircraft must be built to
exacting standards because it does not have the luxury of a pilot to add corrective
control input and counteract a warped wing.

Another great movie in my opinion is: "The Rocketeer" Set in the 30's any
character in the movie could be one of us experimenting with pistons, tubes,
wood, rags and dope! ...Oh, and rocket power!

| Subject: | Re: Irons for covering |
Jerry,
Sorry I'm a little late in replying. I tried at least 5 irons, some
quite high priced, before I found one that held calibration well. Two
years ago, the best iron I found was a Sunbeam Model 3980, which held
calibration within PolyFiber's requirements. It was also the cheapest
at about $12 from Walmart. For the tighter areas, I use a Coverite
Black Baron Iron (I think you can get this at Aircraft Spruce). The
Black Baron maintains a very accurate temperature.
When you are calibrating the iron, make sure you let it go through a few
heating cycles before you check the temperature. The first couple of
times the thermostat turns on and off it will overshoot.

I have both Top Gun and the Rocketeer on DVD. Look real good on a 40" LCD HDTV!
However, I would like to see that Howard Hughes movie as well.

I have all 3 and prefer the Rocketeer my self. The Howard Hughes movie
spends too much time on his mental state and not enough on his
accomplishments

I love kitfox. I logged about 150 hours in the last 12 months on my model V. I
recently put 26" Alaskan Bush Wheels on it and it flys great and lands itself.
Thank You Ken Schooley for building this plane and Thank You Kitfox. 0200Robert

Has anybody got a RAC G205 Stick Grip they might be willing to part with?
This is the same as the old MAC company. Thought I would check before
parting with the money for a new one. Thanks.
