    "Heck" thought The Rat "That Goldy sure is a fine Con Structor of Con Voluted sentences." "But I wonder if, while he has been incarcerated, whether he has been someone's Con Cubine (not that there is anything wrong with that)?"

     

    "I know the answer to that" responded .....................

     

    My Aunt said "Strewth, just 13 posts to 4000 .............. Con Ditions are right for the race to be on".

    But is he yet Con Trite, and ready for Con Ditional release?

    "G'day Maate" said the Greek Fire Fighter "My name Con Flagration, and hava you met my mate the Industrialist Con Glomerate?"

  6. Is that an agism quote? :gerg:Not all hounds over a certain age have grey hair, and besides, it makes them look distinguished :ilmostro:

     

    "I agree" said Planey "And after seeing most of the forum members at Temora (where grey was a very popular colour), that is why I tried to talk Ian out of selling Grecian 2000 in the Clear Prop Shop .... although he did want to rebadge it as Bacchus Marsh 2000."

     

    "I had to drop that product" responded Ian "As with the way the Greek economy is going, it had already risen to Grecian 4867 and is increasing at 15% per month."

    ...collie, which are nice dogs except that their mellons are a bit on the narrow side."

     

    "But what about Rassie?" asked Nobu, who had been watching the NES from in the wings (a bit like The Tuber Planter in recent times).

     

    Then Dickher weighed in again with the terse comment "I much prefer ..............

  10. The root cause of the problem is determining how much flutter it takes to create a snatch.From previous calculations it can be shown that where a certain number of flutters (x) is reached, a snatch is the outcome, therefore the next thing to determine is the square root of a snatch in order to find a snatched root of the first magnitude.......unhappy_composer.gif.f6eeb28ead4f564e3b794b9ba4d2b4ed.gif:unhappy composer:unhappy_composer.gif.f6eeb28ead4f564e3b794b9ba4d2b4ed.gif102_wasnt_me.gif.aa230f6efb9b649c7c3d7c8e521e910b.gif

     

    So Bryon-the-Brave snatches up the cudgel to meet the "snatch challenge", while Planey eggs him on.

     

    "If this doesn't get a few sniggers I'll snatch it from the NES" he is reported to have said.

     

    "Everyone knows that 5 flutters equals 1 snatch" reported Goldy, trying to be helpful.

     

    "Is a "square root" just someone who isn't "hip" .... or who doesn't have a few piercings?" asked the Parmesan Eater.

     

    "And mine is certainly of the 1st magnitude" reported Elle.

     

    "So 5 flutts = 1 snatch = the square or cube root of the 1st magnitude" deduced Bryon Sumner-Miller, in an attempt to win his 2nd Nobel Science Prize.

     

    "OK" said Elle "I'll be a guinea pig (purely in the interests of science and mathematics), I've got a spare 5 minutes at the moment, Bryon is "unsquare" and is a ...................

     

     

  11. Interesting weather prediction for Area 22 today.

     

    OVERVIEW:

     

    GOOD CONDITIONS.

     

    WIND:

     

    2000 5000 7000 10000 14000 18500

     

    350/15 350/15 350/15 330/10 PS03 300/15 MS01 250/20 MS08

     

    REMARK: WIND ALL LEVELS 10/15 KNOTS STRONGER S OF BANCA/YSDU AFTER

     

    00Z.

     

    They say "Good Conditions but predict it to go to 25 - 30 knots at all levels within the next 2.5 hours.

     

    Is a predicted 25 - 30 knots at all levels really "Good Conditions"?

     

    A slow antique aircraft chugging up from Melbourne to Griffith, with 30 knots on the nose, is going to take a while this arvo.

     

     

  12. Meanwhile, GoldyLocks (visiting) on the sideline had a brilliant business idea to solve the Jabalooter's woes. A 3 lung boxer & a 5 lung boxer. As he scampered off to the patent office he was heard to say "Thank you Rattus Kosher you..............."

     

    ..... are a great bloke."

     

    "Thanks" the Bega Muncher replied to the Desperate Fryer "But Ahlockski has been pinching my ideas from the NES since the early days. He has registered the business name "Robin-of-Locksly Locksmiths", he calls his Grandma "Nanna", he wrote 'Jabbarooter" with a permanent Texta on one of the 55's at Wagga .......... but he often gets it wrong, as I did an internet search of his Kosher patent and he has it lodged as a 2 cylinder 5-stroke and a ............

     

    My Aunt just realised that Tomo has posted elsewhere about "Aileron Snatch", and she thinks that there might be another entire chapter of the NES to be built around that ...... if she can only work out how not to get banned doing it.

     

     

  13. ..... the Great Rotaxian Gazelle! But the Maroon Denman Devils bemoan the Golden colour as it just isn't Kosher they say...........

    Ahh How Low you've drawn me in too.

     

    "To which 'Kosher' do you refer, there DF?" asked a well konwn Lame-E "Is it the 3 cylinder 2-Stroke Kosher or the 5 cylinder 2830 cc 4-Stroke Kosher that is built in Hungary under licence?" (And both of which give a 912 a hurry-up while still not revving above 3,650.)

     

    "Oh" said Dex thoughtfully "It is the ..................

     

     

  14. Have any other Jab owners experienced aileron "flutter". In my J430 I find the ailerons vibrate in mild (actually very mild) turbulance. At times times this flutter is quite violent and takes a fair bit of holding by the control stick.My ailerons are set correctly as per instructions from Jabiru. The trailing edge of the ailerons can be moved about 4mm while the cockpit end of the cable hasn't moved - this is due to slop between the inner and outer sections of the cable. I hope it not cable ware as the aircraft is virtually brand new - only 35hours.

    Any ideas?

     

    Garry

    That is not normal and is the type of issue that needs to be investigated and cured.

     

    Very concerning that it takes a fair bit of holding.

     

    Have you checked all of the hinges? And also check the clamps thru the inspection opening at the end of the cables inside the wings, or anywhere else where a bolt, or the wedges, or the inner brackets on the back of the seats have come loose?

     

    The 4 mm of movement is about what I get, but have you used a fair bit of force there to see if the outer cable is slipping at either end? The outer cable clamps would need to be pretty loose & noticeable to do that.

     

    And is the bellcrank still tight on the rear of the tube to the stick?

     

    I'm no expert, but I do have one and have built one so I hope this helps.

     

     

  15. ...quietly go about replacing 025_blush.gif.8e2ecc192cc98853ac4370dddcd7cf74.gif all the bits that fell off (na_na.gif.77b7aa06a1279edccd56932494ddf71b.gif) during their flight.

    No worries about you making that post Dexter.

     

    After all, everyone knows that the NES is a fantasy ...... and a work of occasional fiction.

  18. Keep one tank for fuel, and the other simply for the conveince of it 025_blush.gif.8e2ecc192cc98853ac4370dddcd7cf74.gif

     

    STOP PRESS

     

    PLANEY CONFIRMS THAT AHLOW USES ONE OF HIS WING TANKS AS A "HOLDING TANK".

     

    COMMUNITY SAYS "ERKY PERKY AND YUCKY POO"

     

    And the penny (finally) dropped with the Fromage Chewer.

     

    "That must be why the Locky flies over my joint so often doing a cropdusting run" he thought "I wondered what that smell was after each time he flew over ... and I always just used to kick the dog. No wonder the tomatoes have been growing so well since the Szara came onto the scene" he added.

     

    "I am used to him frightening my grand-kids, when he came over, doing an airshow similar to that done by the Walker at the Natfly Roulettes" added El Rat.

     

    "That plane looks like it might crash" would yell a grandkid or 2.

     

    "Don't worry" I always replied "That is just the way Goldy always flies".

     

    "But" yelled a grandkid "What is that hideous noise?"

     

    'That is just a 912 that is flat knacker .... and do you hear that scream?" I patiently replied.

     

    "Yes" they yelled over the top of the high pitched wail, while crouching in fear.

     

    "Well that's the gearbox. But that's nothing, as you should here them start up and shut down. It sounds like a ....................

     

     

  19. "That is one of the anvantages of owning one of those fine Bundabergian machines with wing tanks, as you soon learn how to hold on for 5 hours if you like flying X-country." responded the Cheese Muncher.

     

    "That's nothing" said Rob'n-'em (+ GST) "With my SportSzar I don't turn left (as mine is from the northern hemisphere, so we naturally veer right just like we dress on that side) and I can .......

     

    My Aunt said "Come back Tubbo, All is forgiven".
