Not needed in ERSA, add item to pre flight planning list (if it's not there all ready). The Avdata charges fees list is great (Thanks for that lead by a forum member). Like the weather forecast the fees info is need pre flight, especially if it's of concern (99% fees are reasonable).

There is one listed in plane sales on Facebook Aviation Buy Sell Swap Australia at $55k

That’s the method I like best. I also fitted a light that is lit when the starter is engaged.

There are at least two types of start keyed switch; eg 1. Turn key to start (only to start) and 2. Key for ignitions 1 & 2 & both and further turn for the start function.

Yes, provides the 12 volts from your start method (Press switch or key to start). How is your negative ground setup for the solenoid and the starter via the airframe or dedicated cable system to the battery? (via airframe is not my choice or the best practice.)

Yep, don't want mice or rats eating wiring etc.

Had a visitor at the hangar today; not sure if it is going to settle in.🙃😊 IMG_9430.mov IMG_9431.mov

You could send an email to RAAus and provide what you have and hours type etc and ask what the conversion consists of; they will give a current requirement answer and you can compare that with local schools.

I think the heat within the engine bay dosen't help; I put mine on cabin side of the firewall.

This is another nice design.

People do Crays Ornate and Painted.pdfCrays Ornate and Painted.pdfCrays Ornate and Painted.pdfCrays Ornate and Painted.pdfCrays Ornate and Painted.pdfcall them Painted, but by mistake (I did the same years ago) Painted's have the stripe running length wise down the legs and lesser blueish colour and Ornate's have the leg striping around the legs.

Try Tony Kerr at Gympie (GAM Gympie Aircraft Maintenance) He had some for sale a while back on Facebook Market Place.

West has a great way of managing the Rock Lobster which should keep the catch rates and stock population sustainable. Coral Trout is the fish (Locally know as a coastal trout, Bar cheek or Long Spot Trout {as the spots are oval and oblong on the cheeks} the Cay is an Ornate Crayfish (we cook the tail meat and also the legs). Both top of the tree taste wise. Cheers.

Water is 22 degrees; Cros don't eat when 22 degrees or less.

No flying as went fishing with clear winter coastal waters up here🙃 Needed some fresh seafood.

Come on Melbourne flyers get Ian up to test his headsets. I'm too far away otherwise could do it.

Just finished reading the paper back book ‘The Big Show’ a flying accountant of four years up until the end of WWII by French pilot Pierre Clostermann. Well worth reading his account of daily diary records.

I recall seeing some nice new designs on the USA Zenith factory site a few weeks back. Be bright and different. Happy deciding and painting. Search Zenith USA aircraft images shows plenty of different designs for paint.

Recon it would be better than Hammo. (In the past the controller travelled to the Island and back to the mainland every day.)

Any landing fee under $20 is cheap for your small aircraft. I recon it may be better to increase respective landing fees by $7 and have the ARO bring out a Hot Chocolate or Coffee on landing 🙃💣

Isn't the manned tower a temporary setup to bed in the control then in time it will be remote? Otherwise it would be the most sought after ATC posting if permanent.

I hope they don't forget to paint the Colonel Sanders on the tower.

Thanks for great update. Cheers.
