  1. yes school aircraft should get inside TBO parameters easy - you'd think I am just thinking about mountains of private use 912 engines - piles & piles of them because they never got enough hours on them but they got to the 12 or 15 year time limit - what fate is in store here ?
  2. so there is a unlikely possibility ! that owners (particularly private use) could be told to throw a 912 away if it reaches TBO ? a much more expensive motor if you don't use the hours ? .............. is that's what being said here ?
  3. ............ or pokeawallaby (jabaru)
  4. nice to read some positive optimistic's .................... thanks all, Maj & others
  5. thanks Nev - a good opening there ... she a laying on a kitchen table in the Himalayas
  6. before you fly next ......................... readjust that chin strap hylife
  7. the legalese ................. is written for the continued interpretation and employment of the legal profession ?
  8. most ultralights could easily carry 70 - 100 litres of water - 100 litres for aerial spraying would be a handy amount (a tigermoth only carried 250 kilos ? and they were considered OK at the time) In NZ applying aerial spray from an ultralight was allowed (I think) - if you owned the land Interesting to know what countries allow it - sure bet Australia would not ?
  9. photo's attached are a broken in flight prop ................ in the circuit Carbs were pulled out by vibration !
  10. Same here Mr. Completeaerogeek - a good thread and please persist - ........................ the conclusion could be a best seller
  11. ozzie if you had of been dealt house loans you would of been a banker if if you had of been dealt kill the taxman, you would of been an accountant there'd probably be similar forums for the above 2 subjects ........................ but they'd be dry and boring we are all just basking in completeaerogeeks dealing of aerodynamics (I think that's the name of the subject)
  12. refreshing view point completeaerogeek – you’re like a brand new ball in a bowling alley strking 10 I’ll be re-reading it all to try and get a handle on it - thanks
  13. were they swimming west .................. or east ?
  14. I'm with you - go get 'em Completeaerogeek
  15. not a bad video
  16. Yep Maj ......... I supply comments to RAA when I need to (don't you go worrying about that) :D
  17. go get 'em .................. Adam
  18. I never fill out a survey that were there is no scope to put your own comment in (assuming this survey one was the same) I think such surveys are deriving and answer the the surveyor wants to hear (or use)
  19. could she borrow someone else's card and if interrogated (not likely) .................. then explain that the borrower said it was OK ?
  20. stupid stories ........................... it'd make a good thread dutchroll - we'd all like to hear some ? - I can see the sensitivity of your position though ! its pretty obvious that the majority of airline messages are legal cover / disclaimer. I myself would not mind one announcement that encapsulates it all 'welcome aboard this flight to XXXXX, be warned that if you are concussed, injured, burnt, broken, scalded, poisoned, infected, assaulted, insulted, annoyed, aggravated (etc), during or while arriving within and / or departing any airport terminal, this aircraft or any transport system involved in your travel - then this airline will not enter into any further discussion - you are on your own dearest passenger - assuming that you will enjoy your flight as best you can ........................ if you arrive at your destination safely '
  21. sleep ......... sleeping on the airlines ! - seat belt / cabin warning buzzer every 30 minutes - if there is no warning required - press it anyway - overhead lockers that have latches - they don't need to be slammed - slam it anyway - cabin speakers turned up too loud that your ears ring - turn it up loud anyway - patronising messages stating that you can't smoke in the plane, toilet or terminal (why say it ?) - say in anyway - turn it up loud anyway
  22. geotechnical prize: Prof Mud Walla's comprehensive thesis confirming that dust, is in fact only mud, with all the juice squeezed out
  23. specify nothing specifically ............. but, encompass the whole thing (an unknown things) in a performance requirement that has to be achieved - yuck
  24. what could possibly go wrong bexrbetter .................. is it the Chinese way of doing things ?
  25. when completed we'd like to hear the test results of your experiment Rob J
