Backcountry Pilot

I had previously purchased this from a BCP member as a drop-in replacement for my AT50, but due to the extent of work on my airplane have decided to do something else entirely. I never used it but here...

Greetings fellow BCP'ers, In case you haven't seen this yet, a new STEM charter school based on aerospace is opening in south Denver. This will be located at (as in adjacent to runway 28) Centennial...

I know this isn't an airplane part, but a lot of us are working on airplanes so this has some relevance: https://www.dremel.com/en_US/products/-/show-product/tools/pc10-4v-dremel-power-cleaner-tool I...

!!Double check the part numbers for your application!! I installed these LORD engine shock mounts over the summer, 18.1 tach hours ago in my C182A with the O-470-L engine. Unfortunately during annual...

I installed these over the summer, but have decided to switch to a different light just so I can get some sync'd pulse features as part of my other project items. They work very well! 12-45VDC, standard...

For those with P-Ponks, on a scale of 1 (being not that important at all) to 10 (being "you'll fry that thing without it!"), how important are 6-cylinder engine monitors vs the simple single-cylinder analog...

I am planning a trip sometime in 2018 between FTG (Denver) and SJC. I have my rough route planning below, hitting a few interesting landmarks along the way and adding in a stop at MRY and some coastal...

Even as a kid, my parents will tell you I basically took everything apart - and even occasionally put it back together. I suppose an airplane was inevitable for this tendency. I bought this '57 182 as...

One of the last decisions I need to make here is what I will hang my P-Ponk on when the engine does eventually arrive. There seem to be a couple schools of thought: 1. Remove, IRAN, and reuse the original...

I think I may have found a good engine for my unexpected replacement project (thanks asa!), problem is it's up in Wasilla and I am nowhere close. I am looking for an A&P to do a thorough engine pre-buy...

As part of my efforts to seal up my 1957 182, I purchased a complete set of the Knots2U door and window seals. The set covers both cockpit doors, both windows, and the baggage door. I also purchased a...

I need to replace the O-470 in my 182; it needs an overhaul, however the case/crank/rods have 4,000 hours on them just in my airplane alone. Given that I would need to replace the hard parts with something...

I'm planning on being in Montana for a few days Jul 2-4, primarily doing some aerial hunting recon with one of my group in the far southwestern part of the state, and bouncing between Bozeman where he...
