I hope all had a good turkey day. We have a lot to be thankful for.
I am about to change all water hoses and fuel lines (582-99). Looking up part #s
and prices,, all was fine until I got to the molded hoses. Is there an alternative
place to order them. Of course they must be of equal or better quality
than the original.
Any recommendations appreciated.

Most auto parts stores will let you go behind the counter to
shop rubber hoses if you ask them. That is what I do when I
shop for hoses for my 912ULS, antique tractors, and other
projects. Many times there will be a hose with the right
dimensions and curves that you are looking for, and much
cheaper than Rotax prices.

If you convert to single streamlined struts BTW...you will save weight over plans
built, and gain much performance. I used aluminum streamlined tubing from Wicks.
AS for the size..I cant remember but it was the same size as a Challenger
uses...it will save several lbs over the twin cromemoly struts.

AC 103-7 be used to show compliance for the FF 103 status. If you change to
single struts, the FF top speed will be too fast according to 103-7.
Some would say this is not something I am going to worry about.
I received a call from the attorney of a FF owner who was having is private
license revoked because he was flying his FF illegally. A neighbor had
complained about his flying operations and the FAA became involved and
determined he did not have a legal UL and therefore he was flying an
unregistered aircraft. Because he had private license, they revoked that
too along with shutting down his unregistered airstrip. The attorney called
me because he was trying to get his clients private reinstated. He wanted
to know if it could be proven that the FF was a legal ul. If it could be
proven then his client could get his license back. I said sure AC 103-7
shows it to be legal as far as stall speed and top speeds are concerned.
Weight of course would need to be determined by weighing. The attorney said
there was a little glitch because the FF had only one strut on each side
.... was there any other way to prove it was a legal ul. I said
unfortunately no, AC 103-7 will not work if the FF only has one strut. With
a 447 the FF has a higher top speed than 63 mph, so a speed test cannot be
used. So the guy was out of his license and out of options.

moral of the story: keep on good terms with your neighbors.
I doubt they could "shut down his illegal airstrip" unless they can remove every
vacant
hayfield in the USA from the face of the earth. In spite of his difficulties this
guy should still be able to fly an obviously
legal ultralight craft any time in the future. Skating on thin ice with a marginally
103 plane would not be an option.
-once again, stay away from grouchy neighbors.

| Subject: | end of the season, a day early... |
Grrrrr..... Sunny, 60's, light winds, probably the last good day... was
gonna spend all day flying before trailering my plane home for the
winter. Flew a bit today and the engine wasn't behaving
properly. Couldn't hold cruise rpm on the Cuyuna, set if at 5500, rpm
falls off to maybe 4000, I increase it to 5500, starts increasing by itself
over a minute of so to 6000+, back off to 5500, same cycle. Did the same
thing last time I flew a couple of weeks ago; I attributed it to an air
leak in the fuel line, fixed that, but obviously it didn't solve the
problem. Temps OK... EGT follows the rpm, but not over limit.
Landed back at the airport, ran it at cruise rpm on the ground, seemed a
bit better, fuel pressure on the low side, around 1.5 psi... then it just
suddenly quit. Pulled the plugs, the back plug shows signs of lean
running. Closer inspection shows evidence of leakage at the rear seal, so
I guess that's it (though I'm not clear on why the rpm was varying as it
did); today instead of tomorrow was my last flight for the year.

Concerning an illegal airport - here is the FAR that governs airports - CFR 114
~ 157judge for yourself whether or not any given airport is "illegal."
157.1 Applicability.
This part applies to persons proposing to construct, alter, activate, or deactivate
a civil or joint-use (civil/military) airport or to alter the status or use
of such an airport. Requirements for persons to notify the Administrator concerning
certain airport activities are prescribed in this part. This part does
not apply to projects involving:
(a) An airport subject to conditions of a Federal agreement that requires an approved
current airport layout plan to be on file with the Federal Aviation Administration;
or
(b) An airport at which flight operations will be conducted under visual flight
rules (VFR) and which is used or intended to be used for a period of less than
30 consecutive days with no more than 10 operations per day.
(c) The intermittent use of a site that is not an established airport, which is
used or intended to be used for less than one year and at which flight operations
will be conducted only under VFR. For the purposes of this part, intermittent
use of a site means:
(1) The site is used or is intended to be used for no more than 3 days in any one
week; and
(2) No more than 10 operations will be conducted in any one day at that site.
157.2 Definition of terms.
For the purpose of this part:
Airport means any airport, heliport, helistop, vertiport, gliderport, seaplane
base, ultralight flightpark, manned balloon launching facility, or other aircraft
landing or takeoff area.
Heliport means any landing or takeoff area intended for use by helicopters or other
rotary wing type aircraft capable of vertical takeoff and landing profiles.
Private use means available for use by the owner only or by the owner and other
persons authorized by the owner.
Private use of public lands means that the landing and takeoff area of the proposed
airport is publicly owned and the proponent is a non-government entity, regardless
of whether that landing and takeoff area is on land or on water and
whether the controlling entity be local, State, or Federal Government.
Public use means available for use by the general public without a requirement
for prior approval of the owner or operator.
Traffic pattern means the traffic flow that is prescribed for aircraft landing
or taking off from an airport, including departure and arrival procedures utilized
within a 5-mile radius of the airport for ingress, egress, and noise abatement.
157.3 Projects requiring notice.
Each person who intends to do any of the following shall notify the Administrator
in the manner prescribed in 157.5:
(a) Construct or otherwise establish a new airport or activate an airport.
(b) Construct, realign, alter, or activate any runway or other aircraft landing
or takeoff area of an airport.
(c) Deactivate, discontinue using, or abandon an airport or any landing or takeoff
area of an airport for a period of one year or more.
(d) Construct, realign, alter, activate, deactivate, abandon, or discontinue using
a taxiway associated with a landing or takeoff area on a public-use airport.
(e) Change the status of an airport from private use to public use or from public
use to another status.
(f) Change any traffic pattern or traffic pattern altitude or direction.
(g) Change status from IFR to VFR or VFR to IFR.
157.5 Notice of intent.
(a) Notice shall be submitted on FAA Form 74801, copies of which may be obtained
from an FAA Airport District/Field Office or Regional Office, to one of those
offices and shall be submitted at least
(1) In the cases prescribed in paragraphs (a) through (d) of 157.3, 90 days in
advance of the day that work is to begin; or
(2) In the cases prescribed in paragraphs (e) through (g) of 157.3, 90 days in
advance of the planned implementation date.
(b) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this section
(1) In an emergency involving essential public service, public health, or public
safety or when the delay arising from the 90-day advance notice requirement
would result in an unreasonable hardship, a proponent may provide notice to the
appropriate FAA Airport District/Field Office or Regional Office by telephone
or other expeditious means as soon as practicable in lieu of submitting FAA
Form 74801. However, the proponent shall provide full notice, through the submission
of FAA Form 74801, when otherwise requested or required by the FAA.
(2) notice concerning the deactivation, discontinued use, or abandonment of an
airport, an airport landing or takeoff area, or associated taxiway may be submitted
by letter. Prior notice is not required; except that a 30-day prior notice
is required when an established instrument approach procedure is involved or
when the affected property is subject to any agreement with the United States
requiring that it be maintained and operated as a public-use airport.
157.7 FAA determinations.
(a) The FAA will conduct an aeronautical study of an airport proposal and, after
consultations with interested persons, as appropriate, issue a determination
to the proponent and advise those concerned of the FAA determination. The FAA
will consider matters such as the effects the proposed action would have on existing
or contemplated traffic patterns of neighboring airports; the effects
the proposed action would have on the existing airspace structure and projected
programs of the FAA; and the effects that existing or proposed manmade objects
(on file with the FAA) and natural objects within the affected area would have
on the airport proposal. While determinations consider the effects of the
proposed action on the safe and efficient use of airspace by aircraft and the
safety of persons and property on the ground, the determinations are only advisory.
Except for an objectionable determination, each determination will contain
a determination-void date to facilitate efficient planning of the use of the
navigable airspace. A determination does not relieve the proponent of responsibility
for compliance with any local law, ordinance or regulation, or state
or other Federal regulation. Aeronautical studies and determinations will not
consider environmental or land use compatibility impacts.
(b) An airport determination issued under this part will be one of the following:
(1) No objection.
(2) Conditional. A conditional determination will identify the objectionable aspects
of a project or action and specify the conditions which must be met and
sustained to preclude an objectionable determination.
(3) Objectionable. An objectionable determination will specify the FAA's reasons
for issuing such a determination.
(c) Determination void date. All work or action for which notice is required by
this sub-part must be completed by the determination void date. Unless otherwise
extended, revised, or terminated, an FAA determination becomes invalid on
the day specified as the determination void date. Interested persons may, at least
15 days in advance of the determination void date, petition the FAA official
who issued the determination to:
(1) Revise the determination based on new facts that change the basis on which
it was made; or
(2) Extend the determination void date. Determinations will be furnished to the
proponent, aviation officials of the state concerned, and, when appropriate,
local political bodies and other interested persons.
157.9 Notice of completion.
Within 15 days after completion of any airport project covered by this part, the
proponent of such project shall notify the FAA Airport District Office or Regional
Office by submission of FAA Form 50105 or by letter. A copy of FAA Form
50105 will be provided with the FAA determination.

> 157.7 FAA determinations.
>
> (a) The FAA will conduct an aeronautical study of an airport proposal and, after
consultations with interested persons, as appropriate, issue a determination
to the proponent and advise those concerned of the FAA determination. The FAA
will consider matters such as the effects the proposed action would have on
existing or contemplated traffic patterns of neighboring airports; the effects
the proposed action would have on the existing airspace structure and projected
programs of the FAA; and the effects that existing or proposed manmade objects
(on file with the FAA) and natural objects within the affected area would
have on the airport proposal. While determinations consider the effects of the
proposed action on the safe and efficient use of airspace by aircraft and the
safety of persons and property on the ground, the determinations are only advisory.
Except for an objectionable determination, each determination will contain
a determination-void date to facilitate efficient!
> planning of the use of the navigable airspace. A determination does not relieve
the proponent of responsibility for compliance with any local law, ordinance
or regulation, or state or other Federal regulation. Aeronautical studies and
determinations will not consider environmental or land use compatibility impacts.

> (b) An airport determination issued under this part will be one of the following:
>
> (1) No objection.
>
> (2) Conditional. A conditional determination will identify the objectionable
aspects of a project or action and specify the conditions which must be met and
sustained to preclude an objectionable determination.
>
> (3) Objectionable. An objectionable determination will specify the FAA's reasons
for issuing such a determination.
>
> (c) Determination void date. All work or action for which notice is required
by this sub-part must be completed by the determination void date. Unless otherwise
extended, revised, or terminated, an FAA determination becomes invalid on
the day specified as the determination void date. Interested persons may, at
least 15 days in advance of the determination void date, petition the FAA official
who issued the determination to:
>
> (1) Revise the determination based on new facts that change the basis on which
it was made; or
>
> (2) Extend the determination void date. Determinations will be furnished to the
proponent, aviation officials of the state concerned, and, when appropriate,
local political bodies and other interested persons.
>
> 157.9 Notice of completion.
>
> Within 15 days after completion of any airport project covered by this part,
the proponent of such project shall notify the FAA Airport District Office or
Regional Office by submission of FAA Form 50105 or by letter. A copy of FAA Form
50105 will be provided with the FAA determination.

I'm also quite content to have my little grass strip NOT be
an airport. Merely my personal entrance and exit
to my property. -----for the last 39 years,

Me too!
I am the regulator. ;-)
