  1. Heck Field floods pretty easy, did that have anything to do with the rotting trailing edge?
  2. Yes, I get the same clicking sound in my Cherokee, but no interference in the Rans S6S or the Drifter. The funny thing is that if I touch the instrument panel above the intercom it goes away (until I move my hand). This is with my Lightspeed headset, I haven't checked if I get the interference with the normal headsets.
  3. Have you tried shopping around at different flight schools? I was asked what I wanted out of it besides the normal circuits, stalls and under the hood. The ground school part really showed me how much I'd forgotten on the theory side.
  4. If you want to find out if you have ADSB out working in your aircraft, go onto the Flightaware app while flying with your transponder on. If it is set up properly it will show.
  5. Is this the "Lynfield" Drifter?
  6. I remember seeing a Drifter that one carb fell off on start up.
  7. The wife's family has had many English bull terriers over the years, very loyal dogs and she has her heart set on one after the loss of our Staffy.
  8. Mile high club flight?
  9. By the looks of things it was a cloned Facebook profile of a well known breeder. The first question he asked the wife was "where do you live" (Queensland) then he said he was in Sydney and gave a address near Camden, asked for our full details and a $250 deposit..... he went quite when we said we had a friend who lived close by and they could go and look at the pup for us.
  10. Thanks but I'm 99% sure it's a scam. Thanks for offering to help. Kiwi.
  11. The wife is looking at a puppy from a person at Elderslie in NSW, and with all the scams on Facebook we were wondering if someone nearby could go and check that the person and puppy are real. Not something that I would expect someone to drive 2 hours for. But thanks for the reply.
  12. Asking for a favour from someone living near Camden, not aviation related. Kiwi
  13. Mine doesn't work, it cant get to 88 mph.
  14. Class 5 medical gives you.... No membership fees, no aircraft registration fees, can currently fly in controlled airspace and up to 2000 kg certified MTOW. But no good for me as I need to be able to take more than one passenger. Kiwi
  15. Must have hyphen after first two digits displayed. My Drifter had 250404 on the boom and I had to change it to 25-404 or 25-0404 But you must use the full four digits during your radio calls ie: Drifter 0404.
  16. Superior Air Parts at Archerfield has them.
  17. What are the rego's?
  18. Stanhope and Tenterfield area on Wednesday.
  19. https://jamesbond.fandom.com/wiki/Skyfleet_S570#:~:text=The S570 was actually a,resembling a B-52 Stratofortress.
  20. I heard that 28R / 10L is going to be closed next week
  21. At least it's correct on a pusher aircraft.
  22. To add to the confusion with the chokes, the left side has a "R" on it and the right side has a "L" on it.
  23. Did you purge the oil system? A rough running Rotax can be more than fuel and spark.
