Guernsey Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Will you be fitting a steerable nosewheel on the new models? Alan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sloper Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Not wanting to rain on the parade but a extra 100kgs would make up for the extra engine weight and extra fuel required. regards Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garry Morgan Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 The lyc. 233 cost. It hasnt landed yet ,but it will be 23-24K It could go in an airframe already built, but the fire wall is better 2"back The castering nose wheel will stay. The flying school liked it, as the jab was very heavy and had trouble turning . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thirsty Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Gary is that cost all inclusive eg all the ancillaries, exhaust etc? If so sounds like a good alternative to a Rotax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garry Morgan Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 No, it has no exhaust, it would also need the ring mount and rubbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garry Morgan Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 No one in this country is going to let me, because one of my planes flew into a Ferris wheel, which was not the aircraft or the pilots fault. When the CASA guy came to look at the LSA paperwork, the first thing he said was my plane hit the wheel. Also the RAA tech guy sent me an Email stating the fact, I designed it, I built it and I owned it, so I am being screwed. Paul Bennet, when talking to him about his crap fibreglass materials, he just said it wasn't my fault my plane hit a Ferris wheel and hung up on me.

metalman Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 I haven't heard anyone ,ever, blame the aircraft for the crash,,,the pilot I'm not sure about . The problem is the issues with the airframe that were uncovered after, your not the first person to have problems with a product or service ,it happens to everyone at some point. Aircraft are just more critical in some of the methods and standards we have to employ, I hope ,for your sake, as an Aussie company you can get past this and regain a place in our aviation scene.

Garry Morgan Posted March 16, 2013 Author Share Posted March 16, 2013 The problem in this country is that unless you have your own appointment with CASA to sign your own aircraft out, you never will get any where. Look at what aircraft in this country that have had there cert. taken from them . All that had to get someone in to sign it off, only two manufacturers that sign there own off. The end is here for anyone that is going to do a cert. aircraft that will not have there own appointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
