Yoke

In a gearboc mine has "selectors "

My HB has a stick,  eggs & American aircraft have yokes.

Goog joke 

spacesailor 

Am I wrong,

G registered aircraft no longer have to paint their rego on their aircraft.

RAA aircraft are still required to Show their rego numbers.

If you go electric panel.

You have to have Good battery !.

"Work in progress for my new dashpanel with the new "OMNIA57" instruments by Flybox Avionics.

You can see the new instruments to measure Volt Ampere, the only one available on the market which monitors the status of the electrical plant,

 and makes a real time diagnosis;

     it is mandatory if you have installed an engine with electronic ignition/injection.  Hummel builder's".

My HB doesn't have a battery, only Magneto ignition, But why is volt/amp-meter Mandatory ?.

spacesailor

Is the 503 R with reduction-box ( when standing Behind Aircraft )Clockwise ?'

AS 583 R, is clockwise !.

Poteroo

Only if Not on Solo training. (single seater)

The MARINE RT has been ruined by making channel 16 emergency calls Mandatory, which clips out the message your listening to, ( lost weather part you need) even when there's no emergency.

I just switch it OFF , then phone home on expensive Sat-phone to get the missing weather. SO NOT listening to channel 16 at ALL.

" By limiting routine calls to those recommended, you are leaving RT space for critical calls."

At a training facility those Many calls are getting the student used to RT procedure.

Yes, we can & do it in the car traveling there, but the Instructor needs to HEAR you make the calls.

B Belcher  ( if I remember the Name right), Had TWO, both of which FAILED.

Leaving him on a reef, Had to cut the drogues off his life-raft to try to get to Australian coast, was Found & rescued within sight of coast but far to weak to survive the surf . ( caught & tried to eat a seagull).

My own "Obsolete" EPIRBS were dismantled one OK, but the other had the antenna wire NOT soldered on to bottom of antenna.

Only a month or two old when outdated to new frequency. (the dud)

Get your own back .

Photo copy it, Put it on Eba or gumtry, the charge $ 2.50 for an "Electronic Doc" copy.

Should get more than three sales !. LoL

A silly reply

BUT

Have the carbies any play on their "butterfly shafts"

I have Seen a very weak mixture on one cylinder due to the Shaft being in that Zone, letting more air in than when in a different position.

I possess a "Glass spark-plug" that lets me See the firing "colour".

spacesailor

Bummer.

I really wanted to do , the house sight-seeing thing. LoL

spacesailor

Like you said !

CASA moves slowly, BUT they change it, ready or not.

If your away or just incognito you Can get caught out.

Smokeybear.

I only need that prop for the monthly engine runs, No license (certification) so it';s not going anywhere but making noise.

The engine I acquired had a "rich" cylinder. that I saw on "visual" had its rubber cap (on the side of the carbi" missing. . A bit of tube & a 22 shed-case plugged. that problem, then tuned it up, to exceed the recommended tacho speed.

spacesailor

Will putting extra "pitch" on a trailing edge first prop, make up for it's over revving of the motor.

silly question but I presume it would be under-pitched running in reverse.

spacesailor

I have a question, but Not on the "Balancemaster.

I know sitting in a "Tractor aircraft you face the prop & say it's, either "clock or anticlock-wise rotation.

BUT

In a Pusher, do you rotate your Head 180 degrees, or Stand behind prop To say which is the rotation, ( left, or Right handed prop).

Reason, My Rotax 582, (cheapie motor) seems to have a tractor prop on backwards, was offered a replacement, but it also looks like a tractor prop.

AND

The 1/2 VW motors are the worst for vibration, Iv,e ever encountered, No talk of a "B M" on those engines:, re. the mercury thing, in a rotating ring, wouldn't the mercury get pushed to the furthest point of the circumference.( opposite of aim).

spacesailor

Using Hydraulic brakes eliminates "Binding, splinterJams, and rusting cables.

Is not much heavier either.

WHO

 Can push the Badgery name through the political crap.

And is this woman's name set in concrete ?.

spacesailor

READ IT.

And fully agree.

BYE BYE the Waltons

Badgery's here to stay !.

spacesailor

Mascot

Airport is known for it's locality.

Nancy-Baird Walton, needs the hyphen, because it was her husband's "pet" name for the Very famous flyer.

BUT what a mouthful.

Badgery's will be its name forever, & finger up to the pollies.

Were is avalon airport ?, : "Avalon in the City of Greater Geelong in Victoria" . Brisbane ?, & so the list goes on.

spacesailor

The fastest HB lost it's tail-feathers, at about 170Mph, Pilot didn't survive.

Skeets Bird with it's MacCullogh 72hp engine is fast and thirsty.

spacesailor

NOW.

That would be a Dream.

" would love to experience it as a group, especially flying in".

When in "club's", I've never been up the social ladder enough, to get Away-trips with the "In-crowd". even when I suggest a trip somewhere.

spacesailor

THEREFOR

Will any one with a key, please post pics or dimensions, to have one made.

spacesailor

Any pics or dimensions to give us mortals a look ?

spacesailor

On that last post.

Is "Oshkosh" any different for the Not so healthy. IE A lot of places (including airports ) put easier access for the disabled.

Voting day I am often singled out & brought to the polling booths past that loong line of people.

Just a thought for 2020. Or when ever.
