The difference in cost between a 182 at 150mph vs anything that will cruise 200
(saving 30 minutes for Curt's flight) will cost you a LOT of money. I can fly
the 182 out of a 1200 foot grass runway comfortably. Few 200 MPH planes can do
that. I suspect that Curt might be able to clear 1200ft of

IIRC, heat also helps loosen rusted threads, though I guess the Kroil will burn
off now if you hit it with a torch. Could make a mess of things. If it comes to

those things) to get it out and replace it with a new

Bear in mind that the octane rating is for the worst case scenario - hot

Modern engines with "knock" sensors will retard the ignition when detonation

If you rely on a vehicle (no mass transit), you need N+1 cars per required

We gave up on inkjets, both large and small and now have a cheap laser printer

Our microwave had the first example I've run across of failing "on". You put
food in it, started the cooking cycle, then the bell sounded and it turned off.
When you open the door, it turns on again. The only way to turn it off is to
un-plug it. Now we have to leave it unplugged, open the door,
It's time for a new one - wife wants one with a combo convection feature.
Anyone have recommendations for or against various brands?

These three microswitches were all wired into a black box - no idea of how they

We are on Medicare also - and have a supplemental plan that covers everything
that Medicare doesn't. We don't have part D (drugs) because we had no
prescriptions at the time. My wife as had a few since then, and does have one

the plan that gives you the
lowest prices on the drugs you take, and not all drugs are covered by any one
