    Ian you are 100% correct and the GPS will only display GPS derived GROUND SPEED not IAS!

    I picked up a Lexmar portable pack from Sportys in the USA which has 4 USB Ports and does not interfere with my Radio. Wasn't cheap at $119.95 but the Reviews are good and it does the job. Search Ipad Power and Sportys Pilot shop USA for full details

    Plus you could probably sell the Serviceable bits like Radio and instruments from the wreck!

    Cut your losses, and buy another one. I noticed a really nice 230 on the Classified section of this Website recently!

    Good point Derek....Pindan,do you carry Hull Insurance ?.......
  10. Roscoe
    Yes, be careful, if it's LSA you may void the C of A. I would refer to the Factory for guidance

    Why not just ask Jabiru?
  12. Roscoe
    A good point. I think a lot of Pilots will wait till the last minute to study the weather and buy tickets on arrival. Would be good if the Airventure Website made it clear on the situation for pre paid tickets unable to be used due to weather.
  13. Roscoe
    I agree Frank, that's the numbers I get most of the time!
  14. Roscoe
    Ive also asked the same question in the past........no luck Have you asked Jabiru?
  15. Roscoe
    Arrival info is now up on the Website.
  16. Roscoe
    Has anyone seen arrival info for those coming by aircraft? Last few years the Website had instructions and maps for Parking etc. Less than 2 weeks to go and can't see anything yet.

    Where is the info about CASA putting CTA on the back burner? I haven't read anything about this.

    I have a situation that if i do 3 or 4 circuits in my Jabiru, after i land my Radio transmission to the tower is unreadable, but if i increase the RPM to 2000, the signal is fine. The Battery is new, and at present the plane is outside with a Solar charger attached. The problem is not there after a longer flight, so it appears that the Battery is discharging at low RPM. The other day, i was unreadable to the tower on final at 1500 RPM, but as soon as i taxied off and increased the RPM, the problem went away. Also, at first startup the transmissions are fine but i am noticing that by the time i've done the run ups etc, my ready call to the tower is weak. Was not using landing light on final. No problem in cruise. Any body else had this issue?
  24. Roscoe
    And it hasnt been officially cancelled yet has it?
  25. Roscoe
    I agree. I wonder if there is any chance if salvaging things to some degree, by people who were going to fly in, flying in anyway , and just enjoying some comraderie without any of the assiciated stuff?
