red750 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Lyle, the Edit button appears at the lower left of your post, next to Delete and Report, but only for about 15 minutes. I purposely made a typo in this post so I would have to edit it to get the above screen snip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff13 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Not sure how this works, but from their website Vne 117 mph Expected true cruise speed with 100hp Rotax 127 mph. I am not sure about anyone else but cruising above Vne would bother me a little bit? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w3stie Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Very interesting. The US website quotes the airframe kit and finishing kit at about $13,495 USD which is ~ $17,250 AUD, but the Aussie agent says kit is $15,999 . Better grab a kit before they realise maybe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Not sure how this works, but from their websiteVne 117 mph Expected true cruise speed with 100hp Rotax 127 mph. I am not sure about anyone else but cruising above Vne would bother me a little bit? The web site clearly indicates that the VNE is IAS being indicated airspeed while the quoted cruise is true. If the density altitude is 8000 feet a indicated VNE airspeed of 117MPH is a true airspeed of about 132MPH which is above the cruise speed. It isn't that uncommon for aircraft to have a true cruise airspeed greater than their indicated VNE however for a low and slow STOL aircraft is a bit unusual. Note Edited to make sense.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Methusala Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 It is not lawful to quote prices in Australia that don't include GST 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
