My Aviation Journey

Flying is the Second Greatest Thrill Known to Man...

After a break of several months over the winter, it sure felt good to get back into the air in April! I was eager to continue. As expected, the first lesson was mostly review. I was rusty on some things but did okay. Again, I was flying with Joe Norris. Even in the midst of instruction, he never let me lose sight of the joy of flight. He frequently reminded me that from up there you can see what no one else can whether it's the junk the neighbors think they're hiding in their backyards or the beauty of neatly laid out roads and farm fields.

Now that I was beginning to gain familiarity the flight controls individually, the challenge was to learn to manipulate them smoothly in connection with each other. I felt I still had a ways to go before grasping the correlation between using stick, throttle, and trim simultaneously to get the airplane to do what I wanted it to—especially in descents. I also had to learn to be more aggressive on the throttle both on the ground and in the air.

With my next lesson a couple weeks later, I was able to complete the takeoff on my own with Joe following me on the controls instead of the other way around! I increased the throttle to full power, kept us going straight with rudder, followed Joe's instructions on what to do with the stick--hold it back, let it come forward gradually as you accelerate until the tail lifts then, with slight back pressure, the plane will fly itself right off--and we were airborne!

It was so warm that early spring day that we flew with the door open—my first time with that experience and it was pure bliss! That's the only way to describe the way I felt those first few moments after lift off as the wind whipped about us and the airport quickly grew smaller below. It's one thing to be in the air but there's nothing quite like being able to feel the air in an open-cockpit (or semi-open-cockpit in this case) plane. I've loved it since the moment I first had the experience in an old PT-3 biplane in which I had a ride several years ago.

Since there was some wind, Joe introduced me to ground reference maneuvers. The whole purpose ofthese is to teach you how to maneuver while in the traffic pattern when there is a wind. This is especially important in light airplanes like a Cub because even a little bit of wind can drift a them quitea ways! You must constantly be aware of which direction the wind is from and adjust the direction the nose is pointing, or your bank angle, accordingly.

We began by practicing tracking a straight course along a road by crabbing into the wind. Then we worked on flying a rectangular course, first, with turns to the left, then to the right. It didn't take too long for me to get the idea of that. Drift becomes pretty obvious pretty fast when you're comparing your ground track to a straight road that you are trying to parallel. Next was turns around a point which I found a bit more challenging. I found myself corkscrewing toward the center as I drifted with the wind. Gradually though, after the first two or three times, I began to get the hang of it. Again, we did turns both to the left and right and also switched locations a few times so as not to annoy the groundlings who's farms and houses we circled. Finally, we found a church to circle and here, using it'stall steeple as my point of reference, I made the best one yet!

At last, it was time we headed back toward the airport. I lined us up for landing then Joe took the controls to admirably demonstrate a crosswind landing as well as to show me what a slip looks and

feels like. Back on the ground, Joe filled out my logbook where I was excited to see that I had almost one page full!

One of the things you learn at a small airport like Hartford is that you're not free to leave until you've paid your respects to the usual crowd of airport bums who are generally hanging out in or around the hangar or office. (Hey, maybe that's why they're called hangars!) They're always eager to hear how theflight lesson went, what you worked on, etc. and are also ready to give advice which it seems they're never short on! I would eagerly listen to any they had to give over my next several lessons because if flying is the second greatest thrill known to man—well, you know what comes next. I was about to find out just how hard it can be to make a really good one! Until next time, blue skies and tailwinds!

- Shop Talk - With Ramblin’s Mixed In by Randy Novak

Researching Aircraft Wood and Epoxy Adhesives New production aircraft are still being built with wood in the structure. Wood aircraft design or repairs are not well understood by most mechanics & builders today. Fortunately, there are some good builder support groups available, and while the use and techniques for wood have not really changed in 90 years or so, adhesive technology has. In the amateur built world discussing wood glues is like anything else. Many opinions will be strongly marketed and defended (In the land of the blind a one eyed man is king). As amateur builders you can pretty much use anything, so the person you need to convince is yourself. As always, education is the key. On such source for information is the Forest Products Laboratory, a research & development branch of the USDA. Located in Madison, WI, they have been involved in aircraft wood working for a long time. Their earlier (1951) volumes ANC-18 and ANC-19 pertain to wood aircraft design and construction and formed the basis on which most current reference manuals (including the FAA’s) are based. They are a prized addition to an aircraft woodworker’s library. Check out their website where some reports can be downloaded for FREE. Some of FPL’s more recent work focuses on the problems associated with using epoxy as aircraft wood glue. Two recent papers in particular are interesting: the 1996 paper by Vick & Okkonen “Structurally Durable Epoxy Bonds To Aircraft Woods” and the 2005 paper by Charles Frihart “Are Epoxy-Wood Bonds Durable Enough?”. The earlier paper in particular deals with an epoxy-wood failure mode that I personally experienced. I had used a popular squeeze bottle type of epoxy on a hardwood lamination. It was strong and solid until exposed to a few cycles of cool/dry to hot/humid, resulting in a failure of the joint. What I could see was the separated wood pieces with a nice thin sheet of cured, fuzzy epoxy in between. I had experienced a bond line failure at the interface between the epoxy glue line and the wood. The cyclic changes in environment had caused the wood to change dimensionally, shearing the wood

fibers at the interface. A phone call to the epoxy company (actually the chemist who developed the product) confirmed this was a known issue, and under those conditions resorcinol glue would have been a better choice for me. ?? Certainly this was not the answer I had expected. This all reinforces the need to understand your requirements, and pick the best product for the job. Anyway – the two FPL papers are a good read for someone wanting to expand their knowledge of the subject. Another source for technical reports and articles on epoxy is the website for West System by Gougeon Brothers. Most room cure epoxies suffer from degraded strength as the temperature increases, and there is an interesting report available on their site that covers the subject. The white colored, thin viscosity Hughes Glue FPL-16A (FPL, as in Forest Products Laboratory) is highly regarded but it has never seemed to reach the popularity as some of the simpler to use 1:1 squeeze bottle types. There are reports on the FPL site which cover the work that lead to the development of this product. Epoxies are not universally accepted by the FAA for use on certificated aircraft, but

joint durability in the presence of moisture and elevated temperatures and are not recommended for structural aircraft bonding unless they meet the acceptable standards set forth by the FAA in AC 43.13-1…”. It should be noted that none have. The Australian government has maybe been a little more pro-active than the FAA regarding wood and adhesives. The Australian Civil Aviation Safety Authority, in its Airworthiness Bulletin 02-011 addresses the current state of aircraft woods and adhesives. In summary, CASA reports that “Adhesive systems where the resin is put on one side of the joint, and the hardener on the other side are not acceptable”. Their list of adhesives commonly used for aircraft does include the Epoxy resin Araldite AW 134 and Hardener HY 994 (we don’t see that product much around here). In Summary - Resorcinol is still the benchmark, a fact plain and simple - the only glue that is truly waterproof, unaffected by heat, and unconditionally accepted by the FAA and everyone else for aircraft wood. Certain epoxies have been found to be acceptable, but there is large variation between brands and types. Follow the manufacturers instructions – do your research. Like resorcinol, the thinner epoxies (which are the ones which saturate nicely) require good workmanship to provide tight fitting joints. In reality, the glue joint designs that aircraft use are conservative by design and were largely based on earlier glue formulations such as casein or blood-albumin. Also, the common aircraft wood, Sitka Spruce, a softwood, is easy to glue and it’s lower strength (as compared to something like maple or oak) makes the glue bond strength less demanding. This affords us some inherent margin, but should not be used as an excuse.

Resorcinol glue – still the king.

FPL-16A glue, white, thin, and under appreciated?

some have been approved under the following conditions: 1) As the original adhesive used by the aircraft manufacturer. An example would be Waco Aircraft in Michigan and their use of West System epoxy. 2) Approved for specific aircraft repairs via Field Approval on a Form 337. Both West System, and the System Three T-88, have been approved this way. Possibly others as well – I just have not seen examples of that paperwork. The FAA mechanics handbook carries the follow warning – “Epoxy adhesive is a two-part synthetic resin product that depends less on joint quality and clamping pressure. However, many epoxies have not exhibited
