Come join us in Tent A we will have 9 square meters of propeller and propeller specialists that you just wont see from our competitors. Lets talk about any propeller issues you might have. GT2 CJ6 new prop and a M14 blades will be on display. See you there.

I did what was recommended: 300 AGL at 100kts, release 100ft prior, and came first place :) Some initial thoughts (for newbies): 1. You cant see the target on the final approach. You have to line up some ways back and watch it disappear under your nose. 2. The key for me was the 100ft early release. I paced it back from the center of the target. Because you cant see the 'target -100 spot' on the ground, you have to select points right and left as bomb release indicators. Make sure they are far enough away from the target (left and right) so you can see them. 3. Almost all competition bombs went long. 4. Some pilots take it very seriously, cheating on altitude, removing doors so the bombardier can hang out over the target etc and lose sorely :) All in all a great day. Thanks, Phil C-FEPN (CJ6A) ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 07:05:55 PM PST US From: Alan Cockrell Subject: Yak-List: Air show opportunity I know this is short notice, but the airshow coordinator at Little Rock AFB contacted me and asked for RPA participation. The show is at Little Rock AFB, AR Sept 16 - 17 2016. He wants any make of foreign military aircraft for static display and possibly formation fly-bys. They will provide fuel, smoke oil, hotels (both nights), rental cars and food. Opportunities this sweet don't often come our way. I wish I could go, but can't.

From: "ggtyler" I just finished putting the new air compressor on my TW. Exhaust is fully bolted on. How do I hold the shim/header wrap/shim assembly together while getting the clamp on? Is it a two person job? Seems like there would be some simple trick!
