Here are a few photos from Oshkosh. I think that if you look real close...really, really close, you can see that Ron G. is also flying the C5 :-) Pretty cool...
Skip, I really got the typical FAA runaround, and they assured me that you would have ADS-B by this time next year. From what I know about all this stuff, and...
I'm getting ready to flip the bottom of the fuselage upside down to work on the bottom wing farings and gear faring. Rick mentioned he thought it was easier...

Hi Ron: I came across this post and wonder if you happen to have the strut part numbers handy. Thanks Joseph Neustein, MD Lancair ES-P 95% (maybe flying by...
Bringing back an old thread... It was almost two years ago in August 2005 when I first inquired about problems with the Iskra starters on TCM engines. My 12...
I was curious, has anyone devised a way to hold the gullwing door open a few inches during taxi in order to keep from getting heat stroke. With all the...
Mark, I did the same as Gene Long, put a webbing strap from the door at the edge of the window. It is a loop that makes closing the door much easier and I put...
Hey Guys, I was surprised at the lack of ES spouses at Oshkosh. I think the only other spouses there were Joy Barnes, Dan's wife; and Pam Kelley. Karen...
Henry, Do you have a pictures? Steve _____ From: Lancair_ES@yahoogroups.com [mailto:Lancair_ES@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of galaxyone@... Sent: Thursday,...
Henry, Thanks for the suggestion. Currently, that's pretty much what I do while taxiing (stick my arm in the door to hold it open). I was thinking of some...
Mark, I'm getting ready to add a strap for my door. I've ordered stronger struts from McMaster Carr and I'm guessing I'll need a strap to pull the door ...
I had erratic RPM readings on my way back from Oshkosh. They started after about 2 hours. I felt the face of my JPI EDM900 and it was very hot so I think...
Mike, Do you have a mounting point in mind for the door strap? I'm looking at adding one myself but I'm not sure on where to locate it, and how much structure...
Paul, My thinking is to attach the strap through the lower door trim panel into the door stiffener, maybe with a Rivnut. I don't think the trim panel is ...
Paul - The upholsterer made our strap and it has a loop on the end of. We used one of the nuts that were installed for the lower door panel. The only problem...
Mike, I like the "kickstand" descriptor. That's what I'm looking for. Maybe I could make a recess in the door or door frame for the "kickstand" to slide down...

Mark - We have a 90 psi strut. You are correct that there is an over center point, but we still have to push the door almost to the fully open position before...
I took an old leather belt - cut off the ends and looped it into a leather hand pull. It serves double duty for me: 1) to pull the door down when standing on...
I downloaded the SPD catalog to look at the gas struts and found something that may be a "door-holder-open". The attached page is from the catalog. This looks...
