  1. so you are saying you like your europa
  2. I mean why would there 2 fuel cutoff switches so easy to access. I thought there would be some sort of safety lockout
  3. It amazes me that those switches are even there.
  4. there was a good documentary on the comet investigation. wasn't that the start of major accident investigations. i don't think anything so thorough had been done before.
  5. a lot of 916 getting fitted to kitfoxs in the USA now.
  6. The 2 sonex owners I know love them. Great post
  7. he wants to support an aussie company. jabs are a good aircraft and cheap to own. parts can be delivered overnight. you keep praising atec but you sold yours and bought a sonex
  8. you might call that experimental.
  9. I don't have a view yet. Just posted something quite startling if it's true.
  10. Imagine ai tech in your aircraft
  11. interesting you tube video.
  12. i ended up finishing my rpc at tooradin. just waiting on the weather for my flight test now. fantastic instructor ian, has been there for a long time, i finally found someone who wasn't hour building. so there you go turbo , he is still going strong.
  13. i thought if they follow the yellow lines and they would clear everything
  14. It's a pity you can't buy segments of a tyre and glue them in. All my flat tyres are only flat at the bottom. Top half is ok.
  15. I bet it turns out not to be Boeing's fault at all.
  16. The temu will be the size of a 1 cent coin.
  17. its so bloody cold here this morning i am just going to sit in the hangar and make airplane noises. -1 c
  18. You spend a lot of time on this flying forum so I think you might still dream of flying😁
  19. its a bert flood rebuild so they must have access to new cranks because they have to fit a new crank to issue the rotax certificate.
  20. and a colour matched mankini in the summer. 😁
  21. Yes, this is the first of 3 that I have had this happen . I think the pump is higher pressure than the last 2. Anyway you hit the nail on the head. Thanks for that.
  22. You were right. Ran the pump for a while yesterday with the engine off and it was fine. No flooding. Gives me confidence I can run the pump in takeoff now. Just not at idle.
  23. i remember a gas turbine backup generator on a minesite, somewhere in the goldfields. they had to make a tunnel of scrub in front of it with sprinklers , like a coolgardie safe. apparently it would not work properly with 45 deg heat going into the intake.
