  6. Prices in any town tend to move together. So none of the above. Nev
  7. There's Plastic stuff each side holding the Aileron Mechanism that goes hard too. Wing folding has it's problems. These planes are getting old. Nev
  8. I know what I don't know and Radio was never one of my strong points but I thought calling it Interference would be HELPFUL as Engine Noise is just engine Noise. Nev
  9. Topic should be Engine Radio Interference. Nev
  10. The Main Design feature was the Very High aspect ratio extendable wings. Theres also something wrong with the engine output quoted there. The AUW was 44000 lbs Much more than a DC-3 at around 26000. Non retractable U/c also. The technology was incorporated in the Short Skyvan Later. Nev
  11. How about a few reasons for your "worst government in Living Memory" BS. They'd easily get elected if one was Held even though not one Paper will write the truth about their achievements. Anyhow why( just Like Trump) Blame so called Lefties for everything. I believe in the Market and free enterprise. Taxes don't go to Politicians. It goes into Consolidated revenue and is Budgetted and spent under Much scrutiny,, This gov't HAS Paid off debt . It's impossible to have an ADULT conversation about much Here as soon as someone starts Bashing the Gov't and Labelling and insulting People as fun , IT is Not funny. BTW those who dish it out Can't take it. I've had more than My share of Labelling and slander so Let's cut it out for the sake of the forum and common decency and respect that all should be entitled to. Separate the Person from what they have said. and don't shoot the Messenger and allow people to express different Views.. I'll answer for anything I post here and answer any serious question, happily. The real Money Made by Pollies is Kick Backs for getting big Money deals through for People WITH Money and Influence.. Nev
  12. Won't be long till things can be recharged while on the Move or just change or fast charge a Battery or prime mover. The driver is supposed to have rests anyhow. No turbocharger temps to watch on Hills. Nev

  14. What utter Bullshit. Find out what HAS been done, and stop Posting CRAP.. Nev
  15. I have a Love/Hate relationship with ICE engines. INFERNAL combustion engines. Electric Engines have NO character but maybe we can do without some characters? Nev
  16. Are You a believer? I get by with NO invisible Means of support.. Makes me try harder. Nev.
  17. The only way for fuel to be cheaper in the Country is to subsidise it. You can cycle across town or ride a real crap Basic motorcycle or worthless car. Nev
  18. You could feel the Intense radiant Heat from where I was watching. Dog knows what it could do to the Plane. The Low 9G pullouts impressed me NOT. Nev
  19. Bird wings make Aircraft wings seem crude. They also Evolved to fly well over Millions of years so are well sorted out. Nev
  20. You are being RUDE to a lot of People skip. Nev
  21. I flew for 25 years in a Major airline and can't recall any gear up landings in a major airline. . . There was a float plane at Hamilton island that water landed with the gear down. and CASA's equivalent did it a few times when they "Tested" stuff. You have to miss a lot of things to Land gear up. You do it intentionally when ditching, Nev
  22. The DC 4 and anything remotely like it used 130/145. Those motors would have to operate derated today. Nev
  23. They've been doing if for a Long time. Nev
