Lol, I still have one of those in my old flight bag! I wonder if the youngsters would even know how to use one?

You ought to try Canada Post. I sent the documents for a truck I sold to the new owner by Canada Post "Express Post". Supposed to be two day delivery. These went fro Alberta to Ontario, cost $32.00. A week and half later they finally arrive with the new owner. I guess "Express Post" actually...

I hit one back in November with a rent a wreck. I am on a project in Alberta, so I was glad it was the rental and not my own vehicle. When I filled out the "report" at the local RCMP station, I answered one question in particular "correctly" I thought. The question was " Was this a hit and...

Being a former member of NHOA from "Back in the Day" I would love to attend. Not sure if I will be able to make the date in May though.

Sahara, Being a fellow Canadian i understand your "Green Patch" boot issue well. However, be advised that there are quite a few manufacturer's that offer "composite" instead of "steel". These are much lighter, more flexible and "Green Patch". i have been wearing them for years.

Red Wing boots most of the time. Blundestones the rest of the time. I hate laces.

What's old is new again. Picked up a new rental at my jobsite, 2023 Chebby Tahoe. Amazed at the shifter from an early 60's Mopar. Kept pushing the buttons Mopar style but couldn't make it go, doh! You pull out the D and R. The rest push in, just like a vintage Mopar. I do like this better than...

Just took delivery of a new 2022 Gladiator. Haven't driven it much yet due to being on the other side of the country for work. Keeping up the manual transmission mission though!

You missed Sally Kellerman

I am a pilot, so I really hate what commercial aviation has degenerated to.

As opposed to the supreme runaround I am getting right now from Air Canada (Air Incompetent?) trying to get home from Edmonton.

Lol, take a look at one of the interior shots from the shuttle craft (Galileo?). That fancy looking instrument on the rear bulkhead is a Bristol circular chart recorder. Circa 1950's to 1960's. Some of them even had a wind up key.

Hey Wayne, I see "Sock Boy's" aircraft broke down again, leaving him stranded at the end of his vacation. Feel like helping him out (and get a Carribean vacation to boot)? lol.

Actually, they are a "Hall effect" pickup. They create a frequency at specific amplitutde (voltage).

Also, if you slather it onto the back of an aluminum wheel, where it mates to the ferrous hub, it prevents the wheel from welding itself to the hub after a Canadian winter or two.

A note on repairing the grounds, I prefer to use Nolox on the terminals as opposed to die-electric grease. Helps prevent dissimilar metal corrossion and enhances continuity.

Wayne, you are in the right track chasing bad grounds. I fought a very similar issue with a Jeep Liberty CRD a couple years back. After all of the ground were fixed, still intermittent problem. Turned out in the end it was bad contacts in the main power relay to the ECM. I had been checking for...

Or 100LL.

Back when I was 17, so circa 1977, there was a 7 Liter convertible version on the used car lot of the local Ford dealer in SW Ontario. It was that light pastel green colour with green interior. I should have bought it as I recognized it as being somewhat significant even back then. But I was a...

I am sorry to hear this Dave. "Depression Sucks"
