The LOW and SLOW Fly-In: Vintage Taildraggers and So Much More!
มุมมอง 3.3Kหลายเดือนก่อน
Just north of Riverside Airport in California, is Flabob! The 7th oldest airport in California complete with a grass runway. This year was yet another Low and Slow fly-in and it was a great event. May 10 - 12, this was a gathering of vintage tailwheel aircraft (Piper Cub, Aeronca, Taylorcraft, Luscombe, Ercoupe, etc.) plus many other classic aircraft, even warbirds. It'll be back next year arou...
Endangered Aircraft: Twin Engine Taildraggers

Tailwheel airplanes are back in style! Old warbirds, vintage taildraggers, and the resurgence in the back country flying have brought tailwheel aircraft into the spotlight... but these are all single engine tailwheel aircraft. What about the twin engine or multi-engine tailwheel planes? Why are they so rare now and are they fading away? Planes like the Beech 18 and the Lockheed Electra or the 1...

10,000 feet is nothing for a modern airplane, but with a 65hp 1946 Aeronca Chief... that's really pushing it.

Best Radio For a NEW HAM (Affordable 10 watt Radtel RT-470)

Ham radio can be expensive! But it doesn't have to be that way when you're starting out. Over the past couple years I've tried out many of the affordable handheld VHF Ham radios and the one that I consider to be the best first radio for a new Ham operator is the Radtel RT-470. With plenty of transmitting power, very wide coverage, great air-band reception, USB charging and much more... all for ...

    I’m an FCC licensed GMRS radio operator. Right now there are 2 different versions of the Baofeng UV-5R Radio on the market. I know, I have one. There is the Ham Radio version, and there is the GMRS version. Basically the only way to tell which version it is, is by a colored label sticker located in the back of the radio battery compartment attached to the back of the radio itself. The difference is that the GMRS version comes with the factory installed “Red” colored label sticker that has “GMRS” printed on it, and the Ham Radio version has a factory installed “Blue” colored label sticker. Mine came with the factory installed “Red” colored Sticker label printed with the word “GMRS” on it. Mine is also programed for the GMRS frequencies and the GMRS frequency repeater channels in my state area. Mine was programed for the GMRS frequencies along with the proper FCC legal transmit output power for the GMRS frequencies and channels with the “Chirp” program. My son-in-law and his father are both licensed GMRS radio operators. They belong to a local GMRS club up in the state capital area of my state. Both of them have the same Baofeng UV-5R radio’s, and theirs are also programed with the same GMRS channels and repeater frequencies along with the proper FCC legal transmit output power for the GMRS frequencies and channels as well. There are a couple of other people in the state capital area of my state that also have the same radios set up for GMRS frequencies. How I found out about the 2 different versions was through a video produced by the FCC licensed GMRS operator “NOTARUBICON” on TH-cam. Among all the other GMRS videos he has posted on TH-cam, he also has also produced and posted a TH-cam video pertaining to the two different Baofeng UV-5R Radio versions. Before he produced and posted that particular video he was always insisting that the Baofeng UV-5R was strictly a ham radio and was illegal for use on the GMRS frequencies. because all the “SAD HAMS” kept insisting that the Baofeng UV-5R radio is strictly and only a ham radio, and is not legal to be used on the GMRS frequencies and channels. But “NOTARUBICON” himself found out differently that there are 2 different versions. So he produced and posted that video pertaining to the 2 different versions, so that it would keep the “SAD HAMS” at bay and off his back of which keep insisting that the Baofeng UV-5R radio is strictly and only a ham radio and is therefore not legal to be used on the GMRS frequencies and channels.

      A basic handheld is capable of transmitting several miles. If you’re in an emergency and need help, why would you need to reach any farther? My local repeater is more than 10 miles from my house and my handheld works it just fine. He did also mention using a bigger antenna or did you not make it that far?
