  1. look up kip aero. i agree but what a wonderful looking engine
  2. found them. https://www.kipaero.com/ they sell camel kits and the engines
  3. there was someone in nz building gnome replicas that were supposed to be an excellent engine from what i read but i can't find the company any more, or remember the name.
  4. Have a look at this camel takeoff.
  5. i would argue that melbourne is the corruption capital. 15 billion is pretty hard to beat.
  6. love this one. so ugly the earth repels it
  7. i will tell you being a rag and tube flyer both those problems would have been picked up with a preflight inspection. i always check every attachment even the spar bolts just in case one has broken or worked loose. and i also push the wingtip up to check the struts as well. thats all on xairs but i am sure its the same on any other .
  8. I didn't realise it was that crash, I read about that at the time. Even more important to do a thorough pre flight when it's someone else's aircraft.
  9. this page should have been at the top
  10. an extra few minutesay have saved this person's life. No excuse to not bolt a strut on correctly
  11. My handgun security check took 12 months, extremely thorough. I should be able to show them that and get my card but they don't recognise other security checks . I guess they need their $300 fee .
  12. That video was out on YouTube by someone 6 years ago . I didn't realise the trip was in 2009. I just thought it was interesting.
  13. that is just wrong. they are thieves.
  14. the spirit cruises at 100 mph on 2 gph. why do you have such a problem with it.
  15. now waco has ceased production. aircraft companies are dropping like flies at the moment.
  16. Hope it happens here.
  17. the book turned up today. When I have read it I will mail it to the next person in the group that wants to read it.
  18. 6 years old but an interesting video
  19. I found the book. Just ordered it. There is also a 1964 movie made from it advertised.
  20. great reply. like i have said before, your experiences would make a good book.
  21. I was asking nev. He always says we when he is talking about raaus. I thought he had retired from flying but I might be wrong.
  22. I think he was talking about Mike saying he wears a thong, underwear type is a personal preference.🤣
  23. boat trailer wheels use holden bearings . i don't think a jodel would have the stub axles for them.
