Hi John,
I realize you posted about this a few months old, but I thought I'd comment on
your VOR antenna mounting conundrum. You called out a "CI-121 Nav/COM/GS", but
I think you really meant something like a CI-158C which is a Di-pole VOR/GS/Loc
antenna. The CI-121 is a fiberglass COM antenna only.
Here is the Cheif web page on NAV/GS/Loc antennas:
http://www.chiefaircraft.com/airsec/Aircraft/Antennas/ComantIndustries-NAV.html
In any case, I mounted a CI-158C in the fin of my RV-8 and it works very nicely
there. Here are some pictures of the installation:

Have any of you had any experience with diploma mills who issue Masters
Degrees for "life experience" and other nonsense? I would like to get a
Masters degree to tuck in between my BA and JD degrees on my resume and
figure my 1,800+ hours so far plus a check ought to be right up their alley.

Excuse me, as I am always lurking in the background but had to chime in
on your comment Bill. I've seen plenty of educated, uneducated folk,
stripped of their powers of reason and critical thinking with fancy
titles issued by accredited establishments. So what's the difference?
Bottom line --- one must do some research on the individual and make an
informed judgment as to whatever interest you about their capabilities
and/or character.

When someone says they want to fake it (a mill, whether you like our academic institutions
or not [I generally don't ... got out of them years ago], is faking
it ... unless they put "purchased for $xx and given for life experience" on
the diploma), has done the research on himself. Why do more?

The general purpose of the "diploma mills" certainly seems to be faking
it. I am in total agreement that presenting yourself to be something
one isn't, is a good indication of poor character. I think that many
post grads today are in a very real sense faking it just as if they went
out and purchased their diploma. Seems to me that academe has moved its
emphasis to successful completion of tests and strengthening of ones
mind by improving cognitive skills are left to the dust bin. ---- So,
now we are beset with grads who excel at memorization. Great Jeopardy
contestants, no doubt.
Of course I am making generalizations here, so I don't want to exclude
exceptions to my jaded, prejudiced opinion. haha!

I left academe years ago because I was interested in: 1. knowing my subject (engineering
& business) and 2. teaching, in that order. I was less interested in
publication of statistical from a distance observations ... which is really
the only way to get promoted in most major universities. So I went into business
... and now have learned enough so that my publications might be useful to
the business community. But it is too late for that.
