  1. are they really that desperate for money.
  2. just another parasite, maybe even worse than avdata. they should not be allowed to use ADS-B either. thats their for safety not for profiteering. or is that why the government are pushing adsb for everyone. wouldn't surprise me.
  3. Hunting the Prototype De Havilland Heron written by Matt Falcus 6 months ago 1.3K views
  4. the information plaque on the one in my photo said it was a prototype.
  5. i apologise. do you realise you replying to a post from june. i haven't posted since because we were told to stop.
  6. it was a joke. but at least people can look at for now. looks like it would be scrapped if it wasn't there.
  7. what has that got to do with asic. do you need one if you want to attack an airport or craft with a drone. those things are controlled from miles away
  8. is there anyone that cares what they do and don't want discussed around the industry.
  9. it was a stretched dove with 4 engines. a prototype that was flown by airlines for years. it might be the only one.
  10. I like the sea venom. Beautiful lines like it was designed by an artist. Sorry to hijack your thread Danny. Thought it was funny I was looking at a Canberra 2 hrs ago.
  11. I had a look through Moorabbin museum today. I go every couple of years. They either put on new displays or I forget what was there to start with. Not sure which. I had a look over the Canberra on display. I should have got a photo. Took some others though
  12. lucky that one is still flying then🙂
  13. what is the longest time you have got out of a set of skins.

    1. Thruster88

      Thruster88

      Hi Brendan, I replaced the original 1988 skins in 2015. The aircraft is always hangared. Light is the enemy. Six months in the open can make skins not pass the bettsometer test.

       

      Getting replacement skins for Thrusters is a problem now that wingtec has closed.

      Thanks Stewart.

      Thats good value to get that time out of them.  

       

       

  14. had a thruster question but that would be off topic . Will ask in another thread.
  15. red can remove my post.
  16. That's good. I asked the only person I thought that might have one. He didn't have any.
  17. Ok. Yes I remember. So if you tick the wrong box you get rejected. Do they then make you go and do the full medical.
  18. its labour taking over farms for net zero rubbish. there are piss off samsung signs around Warragal. there are plans for a big battery site on some of australias best farmland.
  19. i am not sure what you mean, i don't know a lot about medicals. when i was going to switch to ga training i did the class 5 online and thats all i needed for rpl
  20. i looked up the inductive sensor air gap and it said if the gap exceeds 1 mm the tacho will have erratic readings. that may be the problem because i guessed it without feeler gauges.
  21. I didn't fly yesterday but got to watch the xair take off. It was another magnificent winters day. Will fly next weekend weather permitting. VID20260808103652.mp4 We have 500 mts of airstrip, I reckon the xair uses about 100
  22. At Latrobe valley a couple of years back they were down to one raaus trainer for a while. Tecnam was out of action. Almost every student changed to RPL and the cost was not much more than an RPC except for ASIC card which is mandatory.
  23. The wires do run along a loom so that's something to look at. Thanks kg. Another thing I need to look up what the air gap should be for the pickup.
