National Aeronca Association Bulletin Board

Thanks Jim. You are correct and I remember them now

We are working to recover the AAC Forum and absent the ADMIN credentials are not optimistic we can get the site back up. The data in the threads is what we would really like to preserve. This Bulletin Board is in serious need of cleaning and that is on a task list. We have probably another week of w...

Robert- Your contributions to Robert and the Aeronca Aviators Club were crutial to the success of the group. The NAA would certainly appreciate it you would consider continuing to serve as a Moderator on the NEW Forum as well as contributing your talents in support of the magazine. Our largest issue...

In the meantime I will keep buying lottery tickets. Perhaps if you put a number you would be comfortable with out ther...

It wasn't great weather in Ohio, but I did fly two of my Chiefs today

Burl I have sat in the shadows long enough and after getting involved in a discussion group to keep your dream alive I will attempt to call you today and see what needs to be done.

Bob there are probably not enough small planes out on Long Island to make it profitable to purchase, store, and sell UL94. When you get much above 125hp the engines really like the 100 octane. The grass and hard surface runways at New Carlisle host everything from a Baron to Pietenpols and the 172's...

I have a set of EDO 1400s that sadly I may never get installed as my workload exceeds my age and ability to motivate myself to work more than a few hours a day.

I keep a can of alcor around in case I have to go back to 100LL
