Trump is way out of his depth He IS a CON MAN Cult leader and has very developed revenge instincts and gets his rocks off on POWER. He will only get Worse because HE has no inclination (or Need) to LEARN. Those who aren't wilfully blind have already SEEN enough. Companies know best how to run themselves and are responsible to their shareholders and Customers.. Centralised control is a dictator thing and usually a barrier to Profit. Nev

Not IF Trump has any say in it. He's Drill baby, drill and Bye Bye to the EPA. Out of Paris agreement. EFF all of you. Nev

NEW South Whales on show. Nev

Very low empty wt. Single seat is limiting. Nev

Not a serious contender. The Chinese are the ones that have pushed the concept most capably. GM's attitude to electric over a long time is well documented if you care to research it. (properly). I've got no axe to Grind. I was always claimed that "What is good for GM is GOOD for America" except when it went Bankrupt and was taken over by the Obama Gov't to save it that all went a bit quiet.. Embarrassing really. Boeing won't be allowed to fail either. It's too involved in the Military-Industrial Complex. Nev

HE should have a bit of trouble passing his Medical. Nev

No Hours of fright time is good, but the experience might be helpful IF you make it. People who get a lot of fright time usually stop. Avoid scary weather. Nev

That's a hard ask.. I've tried to follow his logic and I can't I don't have enough facts. You need a full understanding of How the two Pumps interact. IF there's any restriction to flow we're in another Ball park. The engine has a max demand and you need about 150% of that. That's a basic before any flying is undertaken. Blockages (part) can be "things" growing in the fuel Foreign objects like a bit of rubber from cutting the end of a fuel line. Impeded fuel flow through too fine a filter . Sediments settling at Low points in the fuel lines. Bleeds complicate the issue and so does Vapour locking which on it's own can be life threatening. Lagging fuel lines and heat shielding may be required. . The engine will keep running until it doesn't and you don't KNOW how close to that you are IF you are not getting reliable pressure or flowmeter readings. Arguing about the Name is peripheral to the Problem. IF you don't know how to tighten the screws for the diaphragm you should get someone else to do this sort of work Unless it's perforated no fuel gets below it. The mechanical actuator only Pulls it down. The spring determines the Pressure of the EDP. The tank pump ( when operated) pushes the diaphragm down against the spring and the Pump is by passed through the 2 One way spring loaded Valves. This only happens IF the tank pump Pressure exceeds the EDP pressure. Nev

I reckon your chances are somewhere between Buckleys and a Snow Flake in hell.. Nev

Your health is more important than anything else. (plus keeping busy). Nev

Spike told US he was sick. It's allegedly on his headstone. Nev

Poverty is not much. I can Vouch for that. It is said to be character Building. Nev

The best stuff to see is out the Back. You have to sneak in there unnoticed. They Built De Havilland stuff under licence. There's a Giant Moth and other goodies. Not a Patch on SARS at Shellharbour. Qantas have contributed to that as well. Nev

The DC-4's left in 69. That section is nowhere near the Main drag. Maybe they could have done with a few Victa's. Its a Honda dealership today. Nev

Most things in Moderation are not harmful they say. Nev

It's probably the motor shaking more at idle causing the flooding. Nev

You can't properly check Roller bearings without looking at the components They can be starting to PIT without PLAY being evident. They FAIL by surface fatigue rather than wear. Cages can also fail. Nev

GM at one stage went BROKE and was bailed out by the US Government. The GM 2 stroke diesels would never meet the later pollution standards. GM was steadfastly anti electric, ALWAYS. The BEST Piston engine for specific fuel consumption/ HP Hour was a Wright RADIAL with 3 Power recovery Turbines. Radials are NOT more thirsty than any other configuration for their HP Output . There are several reasons why they should be better. and most of the Bigger ones are Radials.Jet engines that are NON fan jets are Very thirsty. Yes Rover did build a turbine Powered CAR. Thirsty and slow to accelerate. Nev

It's watched by plenty of knowledgeable people who will be vocal if things aren't done correctly. Not like Russia. Nev

Watch how you PLUMB it. It must not impede the Oil flow. It's also something else to go wrong. Nev

Depends on the pressure of the electric pump setting (Built into it) Your gauge will read the higher figure, never the combined figure. If there's a partial blockage anywhere it will limit the flow at higher power settings and that would lean it out. You need to go back to the FLOW rate checks to know what's happening.. IF the pressure gauge reading changes when you change something there's a near 100% chance the pressure is changing. Nev

WE have drifted from Jabiru cold start but mucking around with any motors gives you a better idea of how IC engines work. Nev

I suppose so but they are quite precisely fitted gadgets and were never that Cheap. I always wrapped a rag around the Motor to cover the Ports and carb intake. Bought my first one at age 12 (a FROG 150 Diesel) about the same time as I bought my first Motorbike. The Motor was 3 x the price of the Bike which was a Waratah 1927 2-stroke about 220 CC I think, Villiers engine. 30 Shillings ride away. Nev

I'd rather take the Backplate off and soak them in a good solvent. Castor oil oxidises to a rubber like substance. You need to store them with a good oil and in a sealed Plastic Bag. Nev

Yes this won't help. Airlines are NOT known big profit Makers at the best of times.. I would NOT invest in one. Nev
