  1. It was a great send off for Dave, The boys did him proud with a formation Fly-By & took several of Dave's family members for rides in the Stearman & Moth. The L-39 was impressive. Dave will be sadly missed. We have lost a Great Pilot/Teacher & a mate. RIP Dave.
  2. We are considering a trip to Oshkosh maybe this year but more than likely next, Have been looking at RV hire sites (RV Share)with many offering delivery to site, Anyone have any experience with this & is this allowed at Oshkosh?
  3. Ahh good to know, Cheers Thruster
  4. Thanks for all the info guys, Found this on a Aussie site but doesn't say what size the orifice is but I will call them. https://premium-diagnostics.com.au/products/cylinder-leak-down-tester-compression-leak-detector-petrol-engines
  5. Loving this thing, 15hrs up staying close to home patch(Boonah) to get comfortable with it, Hasn't skipped a beat now time to start branching out to distant places.
  6. Thinking on buying a leakdown tester and compression tester so can do own servicing, What capacity/ minimum PSI compressor is needed?. Also the Savannah manual says the compression(Differential pressure gauge) should be checked at the 25hrs service, Read somewhere it was every 200hrs? Previous owner had Annual done at 571hrs then leakdown done at 592hrs for condition report (1) 76/80 (2) 74/80 (3) 78/80 (4) 76/80 Aircraft currently at 621hrs. Cheers

  8. Yes flys great, Last owner Gary looked after it.
  9. Thanks m8, That's definitely on the agenda in the near future.
  10. Well after waiting months for the weather to improve between SA & QLD the new toy is now in my possesion, Couple more flights with local Instructor then the adventure of Aircraft ownership begins. Its a 2010 Savannah XL 912 ULS, Very well built and well maintained. Last owner really looked after it. Cheers.
  11. Hey all, Anyone got a Savannah thinking about selling, Prefer 912ULS & VG/XL. Talking with 2 owners at moment, 1 in SA other Townsville. Just asking incase something around closer to home, Boonah SE Qld. Cheers Marty
