I landed in front of them on my flight lesson. Bad ass to watch them on the ramp. They did low approaches 2 at a time. I was midfield down wind to land when they radioed their 20mi out call, I wasn't even out of the plan by the time the first pair went by.

I've been waiting 14wks on rv garage prints. I can't wait to start is process. Let us know who you get to show up

Brian Schultz of Arizona Avation Services did my stage check and is sharp as hell. I dont think he does much of VFR or instrument ratings, just examines for them. He instructs for the higher end stuff currently

I'm in havasu and getting my license by my nephew who is instructing in Havasu. He might be leaving to the airlines in March, so I'm not sure if he is taking on more students at the moment. Jayden 360-875-1175, he can give you guidance on what other decent instructing there is in Havasu. I rent...

I've been surprised at how little info there has been on this. Seems like you would want to put the idea out there to see the interest level of locals, not just guessing. I think a multipurpose racing facility would stay busy. Plus the 10hrs of driving to Fontana to race is getting really old.

Electronic circuits, even when new, have leakage current. Solid state switches, which I assume most appliances have, suffer from the same thing. Leakage current gets worse with age. Combine that with the reduced accuracy of a $15 GFCI rec control circuit, that's how it gets "weaker" as it ages.

GFCI receptacles are not big fans of motor loads. The GFCI sees the current imbalance from the compressor motor switching on and off. When they get old they get weak and nuisance trip. Best to start with replacing the GFCI receptacle, get someone that knows what they are doing if you are not...

Bump. Any new info?

Will a karting track be incorporated in to the lay out anywhere? I could put you in touch with some pro level karting people I race with. I just finished Calspeeds 12hr Machismo race in 2nd. SARA park master plan as a karting track but I can not get ahold of anyone in Parks and Rec that knows...

He also also has an ebay store with finished units with OS already. I have no affiliation with him. https://ebay.com/usr/tech*knowledge

Paul's Hardware YouTube has tons of info videos. He has a site that matches components together. I've watched a lot of his stuff prepping to build a sim racing computer. https://pcpartpicker.com/user/paulshardware/saved/

I followed your thread, really nice job. Storage is a thought and with the dual grade of my lot the man door from the back yard will be at the house grade. I had the idea to do a loft type setup like yours. Stub out plumbing and electrical to finish out a casita in the garage or just keep it as...

Bigger the better and width is as important as depth, maybe even more so. Getting items out of a deep garage gets old quick. I would much rather go wider than longer to have stuff parked next to each other rather than in front of each other. I figure RV lane, Boat lane, Misc trailer lane, 10 ft...

Bumping an old thread cuz there are already a bunch of RV garage threads. Those of you who have built RV/boat garages, what would you do differently in hindsight? I am trying to make sure I think about everything before I start getting quotes and drawings. It will be a detached building behind...

Hot rod magazine did a junkyard 4.8 with 130K on it with a turbo set up and ran it on the dyno till it broke. They did over 40 dyno pulls and it finally broke a valve spring at 1200HP. Lots of reposts to forums, but I couldn't find the article.
