  1. bloody hell. i bet a few pairs of ski pants went to the laundry that night.
  2. i don't know why they aren't designing swap and go batteries like the trucks and fork lifts are doing.
  3. Where do you get these stories
  4. I have been there. Great bloke's . They do some brilliant work. The radial engines are a work of art.
  5. true, but what he says about adding a crank snout and increasing the bearing area has to help. the jabiru prop extension is probably fine until there is a slight imbalance from prop damage and wear.
  6. good luck with it . looking forward to seeing the demo flying.
  7. That's it. I didn't think to look on YouTube.
  8. is it a certified engine
  9. i had never seen a texan until last week. did 3 hrs dual training. got another 2 on friday then hopefully back to solo. i like the aircraft. flies nice and climbs good. big cabin.
  10. Did you watch that video link. It makes sense.
  11. So you would think a crank snout with more bearing area and getting rid of the long extension should fix the problem . I know when I got my 2200 I thought the prop was a long way from the crankcase.
  12. They are breaking at the first crank web behind the front bearing. He showed one in the video.
  13. there is not much support for the crank snout and they often use long extensions to mount the props. cherna believes the cranks would be fine if they had more substantial support behind the prop.
  14. no . you need a facebook account unfortunately
  15. this video paul cherna has on facebook shows what he considers the problem with jab cranks. Log into Facebook WWW.FACEBOOK.COM Log into Facebook to start sharing and connecting with your friends, family, and people you know.
  16. E24 is raaus.
  17. because australia is a nanny state. we have more laws than china.
  18. i have a friend looking at changing a 24 to 24 experimental , wondering if anyone knows what it cost roughly to do this. there was discussion about it a while back but i can't find the thread.
  19. i think he is getting confused with new zealand. over there you need a marriage certificate for livestock husbandry.😁
  20. it may be a requirement for the peninsula aero club who our club trains under. i just assumed it would be the same everywhere but maybe not.
  21. When you go for your rpl you have to get ASIC before you are allowed to solo.. I don't think he has to have a casa license. He needs a casa number. Which is done online.
  22. like me trying to buy stuff at woolies
  23. love the look of this
  24. ok. the gun license is subject to a lot more security scrutiny than an asic . an asic is only a security clearance too. a fishing license is charged to cover the cost of restocking and fisheries management. i am sure the other licenses you mentioned are for similar reasons. you are listing a heap of stuff that has nothing to do with the subject.
  25. I don't mind getting an ASIC but why charge $300 for it and why can't they accept other is that we may already have. For instance my cat h handgun licence took months of applications and security checks , Finger prints etc. surely something like that would suffice for airside entrance. Like everything else now ASIC is supplied by third party providers and they all have their hand out for your cash.
