Kyle Communications Posted May 30, 2014 Author Share Posted May 30, 2014 I said I would post some pictures of Danny leach's rudder pedal mods. Much easier to do that the way I did mine but I have size 13 shoes. Just bent U shape alu but shaped so that they are vertical at the front and angled slightly at the back to accommodate the brake pedals. Danny just got his heavily modified VG flying recently and was having trouble dragging a brake on takeoff and landings. He saw my mods and came up with his much easier to do. I think it works well although for my feet they need to be higher and it may block off too much of the brake pedals. But for a quick easy mod to Savannahs this would be the best option Mark 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rankamateur Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 you should do tran-contiental, get a bit of cow manure on youw wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Communications Posted June 18, 2014 Author Share Posted June 18, 2014 You need to leave the slab a couple of weeks to let it set properly. Mine isn't finished yet they are doing a few things to it. Got my mate doing the earthworks so I can put water tanks either side of the shed. He tells me the doors need adjusting too and the outrigger supports have been put in today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rankamateur Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 The slab was poured this morning and the formwork stripped and packed up by four o'clock. Nobody will go near it until the kit arrives Friday and then builders will be back first thing Monday morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eightyknots Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 The Great Hanger Race is looking interesting . ill come land in that one any time You need lots of STOL practice before landing on that short concrete runway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rankamateur Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Only race has been against myself, been going to build this shed for twenty years, just getting around to it, I would probrably have my plane finished by now if I had finished the shed twelve months ago, I have had too many people coming to stay in the other airplane factory. If I had built it twenty years ago it probrably wouldn't have had big enough doors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
