  1. how old are the needles. a lame showed me the worn needles he changed out on his own 912 when it started running rough . your carbs might be due for a full rebuild. how old is the fuel in your lines and filter , might be a bit off if it has been sitting a while.
  2. hi glen. did you end up finding an engine
  3. i was speaking to a bloke about his avro biplane and he told me he uses unleaded because his radial was made before lead additives were introduced. and if he runs avgas it builds up lead depsoits in the bottom cylinders.
  4. Why would you be flying with blocked vents. Even 6 or 7 psi could problems then.
  5. i am not sure i would want to increase pressure. higher flow is what you need.
  6. i am referring to the construction company and their safety procedures. all the paperwork i had to fill out and getting escorted around plus the site inductions just to drop off a pack of formply. then they put workers on an active runway ?.
  7. i am suprised that workers would be at the end of an active runway. i have delivered materials to that job and they are pretty strict on safety, that is a major f/u to allow those people to be working there with a plane pointed in their direction. there are going to be hours of safety meetings and wrist slapping on that site now. a few sackings too.
  8. Yes. I had the model number from e props website which is excellent by the way. But $4500 with spinner compared to $1900 for a bolly. I think we're below 60 cents exchange rate the day I got the quote.
  9. what would you supply for an xair standard with a 582 and 2.62 -1 gearbox. i got a quote on an e prop but that was far too expensive with our poor exchange rate.

    Skins

    i spoke to someone from horizon sails in melbourne 2 yrs ago. he said it was no trouble for them to make thruster skins, they have made trike wings and various ultralight skins in the past. i guess they would need your old skins for a pattern. there has been a lot of talk about a lady that worked for wingtech making new thrusters skins with the wingtech patterns but i have not heard if she has actually made any.
  14. That would make your eyes water if you didn't
  15. no one does comedy as good as the poms. this skit is a classic
  16. i am pretty sure ashes should be permanent. 😀
  17. surprised me when they said i was covered. its not cheap, when you tick the box for diabetes type 2 they add 50 percent.
  18. well if anything happens to me i want to leave my wife with something. i have been paying this policy for years before i got interested in flying. i probably do pay too much but it gives me peace of mind.
