KR> APRS / ELT

[Dj Merrill]

Just an fyi that Byonics just announced a new cheaper APRS tracker that
will be available in March for $180.  Includes 10 watt transmitter, GPS,
and antenna.  Not much for details yet:

This might be the cheapest option to get an APRS system for your
airplane.  I'll post more details as they become available.


In case anyone was still wondering if ELTs were optional, according to
the EAA, your homebuilt does require an ELT if it has more than one
seat.  If you are building a single seat KR, you are not legally
required to have an ELT onboard.

Do I need an Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT) in my homebuilt?
Yes, if you are building an airplane that has more than one seat, you
will be required to have an ELT. The regulation that pertains to ELT's
is 14 CFR 91.207. This section applies to all US registered civil
airplanes, whether they are standard or experimental category.

The specific paragraph in 91.207 that applies to homebuilt aircraft
reads as follows:

(a) Except as provided in paragraphs (e) and (f) of this section, no
person may operate a U.S.-registered civil airplane unless --

(2) For operations other than those specified in paragraph (a)(1) of
this section, there must be attached to the airplane an approved
personal type or an approved automatic type emergency locator
transmitter that is in operable condition, except that after June 21,
1995, an emergency locator transmitter that meets the requirements of
TSO-C91 may not be used for new installations.

Paragraph (a)(1) of 91.207 talks about charter and air carrier
operations, and does not apply to the operation of homebuilt aircraft.

Single seat airplanes are exempt from the requirement for an ELT. This
exemption is found in 91.207(f)(9), the pertinent part of which is
quoted here:

"(f) Paragraph (a) of this section does not apply to --

(9) Aircraft equipped to carry not more than one person."

Thus, a single-seat airplane is not required to have an ELT installed,
regardless of certification category.

Note that this regulation speaks specifically to ?airplanes?, which the
FAA defines as:

??an engine-driven fixed-wing aircraft heavier than air, that is
supported in flight by the dynamic reaction of the air against its wings.?

This being the case, homebuilts other than airplanes (i.e., helicopters,
gyroplanes, balloons, gliders, airships, trikes, powered parachutes,
etc.) do not require an ELT under this regulation.

KR> Nose gear leg

[Oscar Zuniga]

Robert: if you'll go to the KRNet homepage, there are links to the original 
newsletter.  In one of those is an article on a nosegear setup with the 
information that you need.  It's all right here:

KR> Nose gear leg

[Hall, Rodney CTR NNSY, C210]

Start with the size of the standard nose gear and go up from there if you need 
too but not down.

Hi everyone, 

  I would like to build my own nose gear assembly. The question I have is, What 
would be a safe tube and wall dimension . I have seen some great looking home 
made nose gear but didn't look to see what kine of material was used.
