    Oh - Okay, it does have one. Whoda thunk it. In that case an STC might be possible, if someone wanted to fund it. Ouch there.

    Given that the J160 does not have a Type Certificate (as far as I know/can see) - an STC Supplemental Type Certificate could not be issued -there is no certificate to park it alongside.

    If only JEM002-8 was the latest, which it aint, but the info is still correct. The 40 degree thing came in at issue 4 in 2014. Was 50C prior to that.

    I would imagine Oratex might end up about the same cost as other systems but it would save hours and hours of work, amounting to weeks and weeks in real time. For my plane, just all the spraying alone, I was painting twice a day most days for about 8-10 weeks all up. Plus two gun and pots clean ups a day. It went on forever and stank/stunk the place out. Stinkier than Stinky, the stinky stink bug, stinking up a stink hole.

    Perhaps others could post the details of which suppliers in Australia have which products. Do they have it or do they get it (eg from USA) for you. I used Polyfiber in 2004, it all came from Aviaquip at Moorabbin, in stock, no getting messed around. Aviaquip long gone now of course. I've seen an aircraft covered (recently) in ORATEX. Looked fantastic. Having covered an aircraft myself, I can say that with some confidence that I know what I'm looking at. http://www.wheelerswings.com.au/ My tip for anyone: Do not let a spray painter anywhere near your project. Do it all yourself. (Unless you use Oratex of course!) Spray painters (eg car painters) have no knowledge of our aviation products. Follow your covering instruction manual, you will be so pleased you did it all yourself.

    Jabiru 1100 40hp (a one off special in 2006, never produced).

    Yes, NZ ZK-GDG. at 45 sec he calls out passing Pohangina, then later a heading of 236 to Fielding, which checks out on the map. Ridge soaring near Pohangina.

    Flew into a friend's property north of Sunbury, taxied into the back yard and parked near the back door, almost under the hills hoist.

    VH aircraft do not get renewed each year, it's a one off cost.

    Woomera - forget it. A friend goes there via private aircraft, on Defence business, and even then he has to do some schmoozing to get in. They won't accept tourists.

    Jab engines

    440032 replied to Yenn's topic in Engines and Props

    Try and tear the flywheel off the crankshaft??? WHAT???????????? Yet more utter nonsense from someone who does not even own, operate or maintain a Jabiru engine. Sorry RF dude, you are just way out of line with your nonsense on Jabiru engines. Yes, I myself do own, operate and maintain a Jabiru engine for the last 16 years. Unwarranted and uninformed Jabiru bashing needs to stop.
