Hello KRNet

I have a Props Inc 52 x 48 Maple prop with fiberglassed tips and leading 
edge protection.  I had purchased it new for my Revmaster engine on my KR2, 
but never got to use it.
I could send a photo in a few days or so.  Located near Olympia, WA.  If you 
can use it, you can have it. (free)
Email me off the list if you're interested.

KR> Senate Bill

[Eric James Pitts]

U.S. Senate Introduces GA Pilot Protection Act, Companion to House Bill

March 11, 2014 - Three U.S. senators today introduced the General 
Aviation Pilot Protection Act as a companion bill to one unveiled in the House 
of Representatives in December, which includes a provision that 
would reform airman medical certificate standards while maintaining 
safety.
Sen. John Boozman (R-AR), Sen. Jerry Moran (R-KS), and 
Sen. Pat Roberts (R-KS) co-sponsored the bill that provides a solution 
to a long-standing hurdle of burdensome medical certificate standards 
for pilots who fly recreationally. In March 2012, EAA and AOPA requested an 
exemption that would ease third-class medical requirements for 
pilots flying certain types of aircraft, but the FAA has not to date 
taken action on that request despite more than 16,000 comments received 
in favor of the proposal.
"I urge the FAA to work with our 
pilots, respond to these reasonable petitions, and provide additional 
flexibility," Sen. Boozman said when introducing the legislation. "If 
the FAA continues to delay, this bill will start the discussion toward a 
legislative solution."
In announcing the bill, Sen. Boozman also noted that current regulations 
require private pilots flying aircraft 
for recreational purposes to have a third-class medical certificate. 
Over the last decade, 60,000 pilots left the industry, many due to the 
costly and time consuming process of obtaining a medical certificate. 
This bill expands on the success of FAA's sport pilot regulations that 
were adopted in 2004 and allow pilots to fly many types of small, light 
aircraft without a third-class medical certificate but require that all 
pilots undergo a flight review by a certified flight instructor every 
two years. During these biennial flight reviews, instructors will 
continue to evaluate each pilot's physical and cognitive condition, as 
well as his or her ability to safely operate an aircraft.
The 
proposed legislation would allow pilots to use a valid state driver's 
license in place of the traditional medical certificate if the flights 
are:
Not for compensation
Conducted in VFR operations only, at or below 14,000 feet MSL
No faster than 250 knots
In aircraft with no more than six seats and no more than 6,000 pounds gross 
takeoff weight.
In addition to allowing pilots to operate common GA aircraft for 
personal and recreational flying without a third-class medical, the bill
 mandates that the FAA prepare and send a report to Congress detailing 
the impact of the bill's passage on general aviation safety within five 
years of the bill's enactment.
"We appreciate the senators' 
attention and action on this issue that has negatively affected many 
pilots," said Jack Pelton, EAA chairman of the board. "It is time to use the 
positive safety experience gained from a decade of sport pilot 
activity - as well as such flying activities as gliders and ballooning - to 
establish medical certification reforms that will sustain and grow 
general aviation in this country."
The House bill, H.R. 3708, was introduced in December by Rep. Todd Rokita 
(R-IN) and Rep. Sam Graves 
(R-MO). To date that bill has gained 52 co-sponsors and continues to 
gather support.

KR> wing skins

[Ray Fuenzalida]

Hello All,
Still working on my project and seeing how/what I can do to make it happen - 
before I die of old age.? But the long and the short of it is I now have an 
extra set of wing skins, spars and ribs.? Would sell them at half the cost of 
new.? Could be a jump start for someone else.? Anyone interested?? 

can send photos if interested.? Thanks.

Did a little more research and found a good thread on the Vans site with
a link for a very expensive unit designed for small aircraft. 
http://www.vansairforce.com/community/showthread.php?t=79120=oxygen+concentrator
  I have not looked at all the specs, but from what I have seen I would
guess that the smaller medical units will not provide enough oxygen at
higher altitudes.  Might be OK if you just like to suck oxygen at
10,000' but maybe not at 15,000.  Been looking for a low cost pulse
demand regulator myself lately.  I fly high a lot and just came back
from Nashville this weekend at 11,500 and had to go to 13,500 for a bit
to get over a bad haze layer while crossing a front.

I have never heard of anyone using an oxygen concentrator for flight
before. I don't know why. I did find this interesting article on Wiki
about them and it mentions in flight use. Not sure what flow rate you
would need at the altitudes we typically fly at or what can be provided
by the lower cost portable units.

Acer's Transformer Pad tablets had a real GPS (even in the wifi 
versions)... The 'MeMo Pad' ones do NOT have a GPS.

As someone who has both an iPad (WingX) and a Nexus 7 Android tablet (Avare), 
I've not seen any significant difference in the level of aggravation. Both 
types of tablets have their warts, and both have their niceties. 

The important thing is that both require some learning to best use the tablet 
and software, but once you do learn it, they are fairly equal in how you use it 
in daily operation.

Location Services is just Cell tower location it is not GPS.If you want
GPS on a tablet you have to find one with an internal GPS receiver or get
an external GPS receiver that connects bluetooth with your tablet. Ipad
and some Android tablets have aGPS or assisted GPS which means that they
have an internal antenna for GPS but use cell tower information to get a
first fix so they don't spend so much time getting a fix from a good
signal.

Everything I can find on the tablet you mention says NOTHING about an
internal GPS antenna.  If you relay want GPS in the tablet then go for
the Google Nexus, Ipad, Lenovo Yoga or something similar. Those
specifically mention GPS Antenna.Beyond that if you really want to keep
the tablet you have then you will have to get an external antenna with
Bluetooth to connect to the tablet you have.

HTH,

Michael
