  1. I hear Darwin can & doe's get to 90% moisture.

     

    Stand still & still sweat, LoL

     

    Would your fuel (petrol) in your RAA aircraft Not freeze at 40 degrees below zero. when waiting the antarctic ATC takeoff order.

     

    Just looked at a Canadian HummelBird , that has it's cylinders shrouded, because of their low temperatures.

  2. "Watch out Spacesailor they will be onto you..

     

    With:------(Where is your evidence?)????????????

     

    KP "

     

    Evidence ?

     

    The Fact they took payment, issued a interim registration number, then said NOT in that category 10-xxxx.

     

    Or the Test question, "What causes Icing" ,answer: "Moisture in the air"

     

    That makes Darwin prone to icing and Mcmurdo valley in the antarctic, quite safe from the dreaded icing problem.

     

    Other's have stated to go 19.xxx or VH, but I did NOT need a build log or preclosure inspection, or photographic build evidence for the car 95-10,

     

    that was the go at the time, of which I had abundance.

     

    So who to get a flight certificate with, without going back to the RAA Bureaucrats.

  3. I agree wholeheartedly with your sentiments.

     

    "I don't see RAA (the body) being around in this format over the next say 4 or 5 years. It is badly run, as usual and always has its hand out and dose not deliver.

     

    About time for a new model that is fun and works for its members and holds the line against CASA."

     

    I don't think my meagre pittance is missed, as much as I miss flying.

     

    I'ts awaiting game to see who folds first.

  4. "In some cases those earlier designs might have originally been +6, -3g designs that are working nearer to +4, -2g already (at 600kg). So someone just declaring a new weight of, say, 750kg and not severely limiting the Vne and Va, might be risking losing their wings on a turbulent day ... I'm concerned even more for the unsuspecting second owner who comes along a few years down the track."

     

    So, how can casa's limited "wing loading" make a Safer aircraft ?.goodWingLoading.jpg.ccef482e5d2b39b8b079acbacef912ab.jpg

  5. Young woman, Tory Mac, or something similar. imported one, I had the rego-number, but the HD it's on has the pins broken, so no pics off that HD.

  6. I thought it was a great effort by all.

     

    I was also looking for Bolly, or the other prop maker's, Must have been hiding,

     

    A big plane was parked in-front of the viewing area, and us wobbly legged oldies had to sit on the grass to see around it.

    The phone camera isn't as good as a zoom-lens camera for aerial shots.

  7. Coal when used to fire steel foundry's. made high carbon steel.

     

    Oil on the other hand puts sulphur in, and soon rust's when exposed the elements.

     

    Every one say's the old steel last's longer, New rusts quicker.

  8. Not much hope for me then.

     

    Five years schooling from go to working for a living.

     

    Always said "ten's of lawyer's write our law's" just so we can't understand what they mean.

     

    Leaves most of us at a disadvantage when in a court of law.

     

    The UK has a law for every thing we do, and if a baby could read at day one, it would die of old age Before getting to the end, of all those said laws
