I've most often seen it written TANSTAAFL (note the "A" after the first
"T" rather than an "I") ... and the meaning being "There *Ain't* No Such
Thing As A Free Lunch". While not as properly gramatical, I think this
is the way the acronym was first coined. It comes originally, if I am
not mistaken, from the Robert Heinlein classic "The Moon is a Harsh
Mistress". See http://www.jargon.net/jargonfile/t/TANSTAAFL.html for
more information if you are curious.
So much for todays science fiction history lesson. :)

I need another 4.4 hours of *instruction* in an RV (even though I've already been
RV approved by Jan Bussell) to make a certain underwriter happy. Anyone know
of someone closer to PA than Florida who fits that bill?
Please contace me offline.
Thanks,

I actually use the front edge of the workbench instead of the top. I
hold the rib against the edge of the workbench as I flute. This is a
natural position to grip the pliers. You can look down and see the gap
narrow as you squeeze.

Those going to and coming from Sun and Fun from Iowa, Nebraska,
Minnesota areas might want to check out our fuel prices and
accomodations. We also have an old junk courtesy car on a first come
first serve basis..
Restaurants and Motels are about a mile down the street. Tent camping
is ok and you can put up over night in the admin building if you want.
Take a look at the website and click on the aerial photos to get a look
at things..

All,
Those Not Delivered 'cause its Spam messages aren't coming from Matronics and messages
are in fact being delivered to the List distribution. Someone on the
Lists is returning those messages. The return messages themselves don't seem
to have the actual email address of the person sending them. I'm running my Email
Weasel right now, which should hopefully "weasel" out who the person is and
unsubscribe them.

And I can assure you from first-hand experience the courtesy car is a
hoot! Getting to town and back was nearly as exciting as departing OSH
2005. :-)
Seriously, Phil's home airport is a fine stop, and the car did a great
job of wallowing to lunch and back. The occasional backfire blended
right in with the, uh, tailwinds the four occupants were producing, and
the fact the windows had to be sorta rolled/slid down was a bonus. Fuel
prices were the best we found in the area.
I'll probably stop again for OSH 2006.

Dave:
Its Acronym, Meaning. ****,
TINSTAAFL, There Is No Such Thing As A Free Lunch
BUT IT REALLY SHOULD BE
TANSTAAFL ... is an acronym for the adage
"There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch,"
popularized by science ...
According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TANSTAAFL
The correct acronym is the latter, my mistake, but the meaning
is the same and very true.

I have lost all my instruction sheets that came with my FAB kit. I was
hoping to work on it this weekend, but I want the instructions in front
of me. Does anyone have them that can scan them and send them to me via
email?

Hello John,
I can report that all features of the KX-125 work properly and it drives the
CDI just fine in the Century HSI. I have had no problems with the KX-125 nav
or comm features.

Jeff,=0D=0A=0D=0AI'm working on a similar issue. I'm adding a KN-73 and a KI-209
to my KX-125. I'm afraid I don't have the documents yet either, but I do have
some questions.=0D=0A=0D=0AWhen you hooked the KX-125 up to the HSI, did you
lose any functionality in the KX-125. Are you still able to get a digital bearing
from the VOR while simultaneously driving the CDI in the HSI. You can respond
to me off-list if you'd like at fliier@altrionet.com=0D=0A=0D=0ABTW, the
avionics guy told me that the KN-73 will have to be "tuned" once it is integrated
into the system. Apparently that is not true of the newer KN-75. I bought
the GS Receiver some time ago so I'm going down that path, but if you haven't.
