  1. It makes sense that the mower shops would sell it I suppose. I only know it from boating. The price of outboard motors is no assumption.
  2. Stabil is designed for marine applications where a tank of fuel can be 200 lts plus. Like I said research if it's usable or not. I have never seen an raaus aircraft with the fuel capacity of a lot of boats. I never mentioned mowers. It's not uncommon for boats to have 50 to 150k worth of outboards hanging off the back so I would hope it is not detrimental to the fuel system parts.
  3. But what is in avgas that it makes it last.
  4. I think the best option for me will be to wait until I get my taildragger down here and do the endorsement in that with our club cfi if I can pin him down for long enough. He is usually booked 6 months ahead.
  5. would be super cautious about "....a bottle of stabil from BCF or supercheap" and it would likly take more than a bottle to treat an aircraft system (no matter how small. Skippy. I agree with you accept for this statement. Completely unfounded guesswork on your part. You need to do some research then make an informed comment.
  6. That's an option for Danny. Pick up a bottle of stabil from BCF or supercheap. Don't know if it's recommended for aircraft though. Why does avgas last for years, what do they put in it.
  7. Excellent, thanks for that. Mine has the central y stick. I like that in the Jabiru so it's a plus for me. The canopy hinges are different. There is a video on U tube of a 650 canopy fitted to a 601, it opens forward which makes more sense to me.
  8. I have bought a zodiac taildragger. I think I will contact my club and organise to do it in that. It will be the cheapest option if I can do that.
  9. The only trouble with that is I would have to go and stay there for a few days . I don't have the spare time unfortunately.
  10. Did you have an rpl and rpc
  11. Nev can a ga / raaus instructor do my endorsement in a VH aircraft. Otherwise I guess I can wait until I get my plane here I suppose and do it in that.
  12. Can I get an raaus endorsement with a ga instructor. The cfi at Traralgon is raaus and ga but the only taildragger there is his VH registered decathlon.
  13. From what I remember it was withholding important documents and emails from the court that caused most of the trouble. More than the actual accident.
  14. Is there anywhere in Victoria or southern NSW that does tailwheel endorsement raaus.
  15. What's your opinion of the zodiac 601 , mb.
  16. Scratch that post. Lightwing has turned into a zodiac 601 hd.
  17. but i think that would have involved cutting away fabric to change the complete hanger. it would be a lot of work.
  18. would it be worth refilling with avgas to keep eveything wet and prevent condensation in empty tanks.
