  1. The 2 sonex owners I know love them. Great post
  2. he wants to support an aussie company. jabs are a good aircraft and cheap to own. parts can be delivered overnight. you keep praising atec but you sold yours and bought a sonex
  3. you might call that experimental.
  4. I don't have a view yet. Just posted something quite startling if it's true.
  5. Imagine ai tech in your aircraft
  6. interesting you tube video.
  7. i ended up finishing my rpc at tooradin. just waiting on the weather for my flight test now. fantastic instructor ian, has been there for a long time, i finally found someone who wasn't hour building. so there you go turbo , he is still going strong.
  8. i thought if they follow the yellow lines and they would clear everything
  9. It's a pity you can't buy segments of a tyre and glue them in. All my flat tyres are only flat at the bottom. Top half is ok.
  10. I bet it turns out not to be Boeing's fault at all.
  11. The temu will be the size of a 1 cent coin.
  12. its so bloody cold here this morning i am just going to sit in the hangar and make airplane noises. -1 c
  13. You spend a lot of time on this flying forum so I think you might still dream of flying😁
  14. its a bert flood rebuild so they must have access to new cranks because they have to fit a new crank to issue the rotax certificate.
  15. and a colour matched mankini in the summer. 😁
  16. Yes, this is the first of 3 that I have had this happen . I think the pump is higher pressure than the last 2. Anyway you hit the nail on the head. Thanks for that.
  17. You were right. Ran the pump for a while yesterday with the engine off and it was fine. No flooding. Gives me confidence I can run the pump in takeoff now. Just not at idle.
  18. i remember a gas turbine backup generator on a minesite, somewhere in the goldfields. they had to make a tunnel of scrub in front of it with sprinklers , like a coolgardie safe. apparently it would not work properly with 45 deg heat going into the intake.
  19. Been thinking about this . I will try the electric pump with the engine off tomorrow. That will tell me if it's vibration causing the problem.
  20. not sure what you mean here. its a 2 seater
  21. Yes, I admit I never took much notice before.
  22. the chevy volt all electric car has been around for years before the current evs
  23. i hope this doesn't start another 7 page argument but yesterday i actually read the form i have to sign for flying solo. there is a section at the bottom which says any pilot hiring the aircraft for solo training or personal use is liable for repairs or insurance excess if the pilot is found to be at fault for any damage to the aircraft
