That tyre trick does not compute fot me !.
A really good example, is a 26 inch X 1 and a 1/2 inch pushbike tyre on sand, even a skinny 50Kgm kid will bog.
Same kid on Fat tyres will be hard to catch.
My 15 X 195 X 60 profile tyres bog even with 10 psi preasure also they deflate when cornering ( book says 15 X 205,s but not available here ).
245 or 265, width work like a charm,
Someone with good maths will be able to work out the contact area of a 2 ton van ( 4X 4 ) with those differant footprints left in the sand.
15 X 195 compared to 15 X 245 MM = ?.

What if I just remove that pesky bubble, that annoys so many ?.
I will still have the canopy bows fore and aft.

My avatar shows the rollcage at either end of the canopy bubble.
Hopefully strong enough to save a squashed Meee. LoL
The bubble is much stronger than the front screen who,s strength is due to the folding, clamped not bolted.

Just punch out the front screen, but I don,t know if you could get out that way, as it,s not very big.

SO,
IF ( it happened to me ) two aircraft, one landing downwind, other, into the wind ,
BOTH
Transmit exactly at the same time,
Which one will be heard ?.
Both pilots said they transmitted "turning base ect ", but neither heard anything !.
( our plane hurriedly ran off the runway to avoid a headon crash )

Were does That leave all the 95-10 aircraft without electronics. No radio means GROUNDED ?

CAN I haveago.
6.6 Kgms per square meter of air, On takeoff, in your jumbo, (that had budgies in it.) IF it springs a leek and looses all that air, (at max height ) will the plane be lighter.

On a side note !?
The sky towards Sydney is as blue as I,ve seen it, no grey haze on the horizen,
Now with the demise of four engine plane there should be less pollution & carbon in the air.

W.A. is totally isolated and will stay that way and we keep a tight rein on newly-introduced virus transmission from outside the State. "
YET.
WA is the only state with the African tick, thats deadly to canines.

I only use my lithium ferrous battery to start the engine. As soon as the battery is back to voltage, the charging is switched off and the "battery" is now just a couple of big capacitors which the alternator thinks is the battery. This is how the radio etc has power while the battery is disconnected.
I need to make the disconnection automatic, another project on the list... In the meantime, I just switch it off when the voltage returns to 14.2 volts. "
Can you show us a pic of your setup.
And most of my lipo model batteries Die after a while, just wont charge. Posibly too much heat in my shed.

Yes thats the information I wanted.
When my rego was canceled I was Not notified at all. RAA may have special exemption from CASA,s rules.
" 47.131A (1) CASA must by written notice given to the registeration holder of the aircraft "
These rules are Far too hard for normal lay people to, just look them up.
As some are stating on this site.

Thanks KG,
BUT
after three or was it four pages I ended with:
Effective 21MAY2020
So I still cannot find the answer to the question ( information on deregistering an aircraft). I want to know Who can deregister your aircraft.
And I'm still reading page by page of the 21st may 2020 :General : it's harder than reading the paper copy.

CO poisoning ??

After my hip operation my O2 reading was down to 40 to 50, the doctors had a hard job keeping me awake to take deep breaths. As soon as I relaxed my reading dropped. And they would wake me up again.
Should have been in post op one day but stayed three days due to low O2.
And I did tell them, I,m hard to awaken after the operation.
