eightyknots Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Top marks for trying; if he could get it here I reckon he deserves to stay for sure, innovative and industrious types are always welcome. 800 kg for a 2-seat aircraft seems a little on the heavy side. Compare that to, say, an X-Air (or even an all-metal Savannah): both weigh less than 300 kaygees. I hope our Kenyan friend gets it off the ground ....or perhaps it would be better if he didn't.

Gnarly Gnu Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Oh it won't fly of course - but that is for his benefit as you say. Still a good achievement, they should make him president of the USA or something the current one can't get the economy to float much less something to fly.

alf jessup Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 What worries me is that I am lead to believe this is the new QANTAS training school in action. It's ok J170, They will be working only on the old Boeings that Qantas own lol:bash:, the Airbus A380 has enough of it's own problems and is still under new car warranty lol Alf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J170 Owner Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Here is another one What a great story. It's such a pity we don't have people with his enthusiasm and determination working for us in Canberra. I feel I should send him a parachute.
