I know there are already two places where you can search the archive, but now there are three. I threaded and filtered the archive so some emails may seem a bit strange and some may be missing altogether. I hope some of you find it useful. http://kr.abshier.org/database.html -- Bryan Abshier - bryan@babshier.com ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 28 Mar 2002 20:13:35 -0300 To: "KR-net" From: "Eduardo Iglesias" Subject: Hole saw Message-ID: <011301c1d6b4$01308960$a1bc3fc8@satellite> ------=_NextPart_000_0108_01C1D695.0A9829A0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I need information about whre can I buy a bimetal hole saw in 5/8 and = 7/8.

The link follows: Have you ever heard of the AS504x series airfoil ( http://home.hiwaay.net/~langford/airfoil.html )? My guess is that a professor of aeronautical engineering (who specializes in airfoil design) designing an airfoil specifically for the KR2S with a goal of same stall speed and lower drag might have better results than a software application, but that's just my humble opinion...

Message-ID: >Is it safe to put an automotive dry gas product in a fiberglass avaition >fuel tank. I have been pulling a lot of water out of my tanks and wonder if it would be advicable to add dry gas just as a insurance to getting all the water removed. The reason I got all the water was from removing the wings and having them outside for a month. I didn't think the fuel lines and breather tubes would draw water into the empty tanks as bad as it appears to have. The other day I drained all the water out then went out and did a little taxi work. Then just after lift off the engine started running real bad. So I aborted the take off and pulled back to the hanger. I drained the water again today. I must have pulled what seemed like a half gallon out of the left tank. This was a lesson well learned and I am glad it happened when I had 5000 feet of runway in front of me.
