    I'm not going to get into the wrestling match here...or anywhere for that matter, but to shed some light on your question; I was at Bolly this day and saw the Jabiru decalled props which they have been supplying for "some-time now"(sic). They are pretty impressive with a hub root about twice the diameter of standard Bolly/Warp/etc. I think if you had a prop strike it'd rip the engine off the firewall! (don't know if that's a good thing...don't ask me how I know) They make a very fine piece of kit and are excellent people to deal with. (...plug over) . And if the rego was'nt in a bl**dy pile somewhere in Fyshwick I'd be tempted!

    ........Oh! Thanks Jim . OK so why does the 'sms' as required need a consensus of the 'board' to implement the fore-mentioned sms?

    quote{ "RAAus has been aware of the need for inventing a SMS, for over two years (maybe many more than two) but due to lack of consensus by the board nothing has been done. And it looked like nothing was continuing to be done in spite of all the board's deliberations. " (end quote) } I'm a simpleton!....I know , so that's OK (with me) ; How-ever if the RAA deed of agreement with CASA , 'REQUIRES' an SMS Officer, why the Bl**dy hell does it need a consensus from a disfunctional board of representatives. As I said .....I'm a simpleton! Seems to me it's as 'they' say .....it's a no-brainer !! So tell me why?...............(please.......keep it simple)

    AFAIK.......Jabbie engines can be a bit problematic with cooling in a pusher config. As I say AFAIK ! Could be wrong..........wouldn't be the first time.............or the last.

    You are quite right ...of course! I think MY sense at humour is a little different than yours. However I'm suitably chastised.

    the ferris wheel caused the short-comings of the aircraft manufacture! ie; unzipped rivets, lack of suitable edge clearance,zip ties etc,etc,.........and then the excreta hit the rotating thing ..........which made it spread wide and far!!!!!!1:bad_mood:
