right next to the airport. Phone number?(863) 647-0066.

Maybe it has something to do with a new 172 costing over 250K which drives the
price of a "used" one up way beyond what a used one cost when they were
building without the "luxury options as standard" think leather, full IFR as
"standard" etc.

Dave,
Sounds like you have already drilled the holes for the lower ends of the
gear legs. If not, clamp in place and drill the holes for the legs and
brackets; no shims needed. If so, try Aircraft Spruce
Hi Sid / All
I have the same situation. I have picked it up before I build my engine mount,
so I extended my engine mount.?
However I am concerned about the extra arm (moment) on the fire wall.?
Will it be strong enough? Any advice??

My grand daughter and her cousin are at the Evergreen water park today. I think
we'll have to pry them out at closing. Water slide out of a 747. Can life get
any better.
There's a longer YouTube video of the water park after this one. Worth
watching.
Yeah... Most of it is regulatory overhead & lawsuit/insurance expense...
In a world where we had a Canada-style 'Owner Maintained' category & you
didn't have to pay $400 for a $75 12v Ford alternator simply because it had
been blessed by the FAA... Aviation wouldn't be so god-awful expensive...
I actually had an idea along these lines, as a solution to this problem...
If I were to stack enough washers under the axle-attach bracket to bring
the gear into alignment, coat the attach-bolts & bracket with grease as a
release-agent, and seal the bottom 3 sides with tape
I could then pour
I bought the legs pre-drilled from another KRlister & at least so far,
other than the 7-degrees-each-side toe-out/8-degrees-camber-out alignment,
they don't seem to be causing trouble with balance on my particular
plane... In it's nose-lightest configuration (eg, fuel tank empty), I can
get in and

Sold my scuba gear and spent $200 for 10 hours of "block time" (which
gave me one extra hour) at Merrill Field in Anchorage. Cherokee 140.
Red Dodge's flight school. Instructor was Nancy Howard. Soled in 9
hours.

Anybody going to SNF, who plans to stay at a hotel? Or, who has gone before
and can recommend a hotel?

Back in 1983
Back in the 50's, the Air force aero clubs were owned and operated by the
club members. When the Air Force took over management, they decided that
they had to make a profit to help pay for other rec.
You may also check with aircraft salvage yards for shims. I've seen lots of
them in years past on factory built airplanes. Mostly on tail drag airplanes.
I've seen tiny and large and also large plus tiny on same axle to get the
proper alignment.

Spare a thought for those of us down under. The cost of a 172SP at my local
aero club is listed as $322.30 per hour. $170 per hour sounds pretty good to
me!
