Well, Everyone is welcome here at anytime, we run an open door shop here and love having people drop in....

I started wondering about that after a few people started saying they might show up...I'm glad you don't mind.

Good luck on the exam :!:

I got one last year, I really like it...replaced my glass gascolator so I could have a drain port. Mostly I use it to fill my camp stove when it runs out of fuel 8)

Re: SW Oregon during the end of May

Depends on what model you need.

$200.00 for the 3/8 inch fuel line versions.

$250.00 for the 1/2 inch fuel line versions.

Add $30.00 if the remote drain bowl option is needed.

Add another $15.00 if any of our brackets is needed.

According to your signature line you have a M5-235C, the Maules are approved for either our SA3-00 at $200.00 or one of our SA3-10-C's at $250.00. Depends on what size fuel line was installed on your particular airplane.

Brian.

That looks like a nice upgrade! It's on the list of modifications to be made to my 170.

Re: SW Oregon during the end of May

Bummer......... But rest assured, acing a test does not make you a good A&P, or a good anything for that matter. In my experience, knowledge is only part of being a true craftsman. Keep us posted.

Re: SW Oregon during the end of May

So Brian was thinking getting out the BBQ might be fun depending on the number of people showing up and when. So how bout we get a head count of who is going to try and make it and when.

Re: SW Oregon during the end of May

I'm flexible. I will be in central Oregon over Memorial Day. Me and Zane were kicking around the idea of flying together so that is a consideration. I'm real big on the weather too. If you don't challenge the weather you will live to fly another day.

Weather permitting any time works for me.

Re: SW Oregon during the end of May

Hi all, my plane is in Madras now. Tuesday I plan to fly from Madras to Powers to Agness. Spend the night at Agness if they have a room. Then Wednesday come over to Beagles to say hi and hang out. The SPOT will be on.

Cheers...Rob

Re: SW Oregon during the end of May

Hey guys,

Got a brand spanking new grill set up yesterday so we are ready to make burgers or whatnot for lunch. Only thing I ask is to bring whatever you want cooked up. Ill probably have a few burgers on hand, but not much else. :)

Will be looking for Whee to show up sometime today.

Frequency here at Beagle (no "S" on the end guys, don't want to get confused with the other guys) is 123.3, I monitor the radio so call away.

Air Navs info is here http://www.airnav.com/airport/OR96 use a left hand pattern, land to the North.

Hope to see a bunch of you here.....

Brian.

Re: SW Oregon during the end of May

Darn it! Looks like I'll be out of town all day tomorrow, so I'll miss the festivities. :cry:

If anybody's still around on Friday and/or Sunday, I'll be around.

Re: SW Oregon during the end of May

Will see you guys at Beagle tomorrow. I may be up for a little sortie to Powers. I have to juggle work and flying so my time may be limited.

Or180-- Let's get together on friday. I might pick up my brother at S03.

Re: SW Oregon during the end of May

How late are you all going to be at Beagle? I am working until 5pm and then may be able to meet up. If you are going to come over to powers let me know.

Re: SW Oregon during the end of May

Hi Brent, dang. Once I got off the net this AM I didn't get back on. That would have been fun. I did make Powers and am having a great time at Agness.
