There was also a Eurostar that encountered a storm in Europe and suffered structural failure, the Sportstar in WA was constant overload I believe ! Not the fault of the aircraft ! I believe these two happened the same year ! The Sportstar is a wonderful plane to fly and tempting to push the limits ! I owned one for many years and loved it !
-
Thankyou , it was the one I read about ! Warning signs were there I believe ! Very sad all the same !

What sort of aircraft was this ? I remember reading about a structural failure in a low wing LSA . If so I understand what you are saying about the dice being rolled ! I have been called a " Whooss" by many, a couple are no longer due to taking risks, when you take a risk or over stress a plane there becomes a chance that an accident will occur but it becomes a point where it is not an accident but intentional, it gets serious if you push too far !

Oscar ! Gen 1 is solid lififter Gen 2 is thin Heads hydrauliclic , Gen 3 is roller cam follower with hydraulic , thin Heads and 7/16 through bolts Gen 4 is the latest ! Roller cam followers, cast heads, Nicosil type alloy cylinders, cast heads ! I think they have covered some ground and are doing alright but they could do better and they could communicate a little better too ! Not perfect but not that bad either ! I'm a fan of air cooled direct drive and think they are the best choice treated right ! I have a gen 2 and am happy with it..!

I knew she had the plane long ago and saw the one nation sign on it ! No matter what ! she is promoting travel by a sport aviation aircraft and it should be commended ! You just don't like her and that's not a reason to be bring her into disrepute flying an Australian made sport aircraft ! If you have other reasons tell someone who cares !
-
I don't understand how anyone can see her flying around is an RAA registered Jabiru as a negative, she is involved and understands the RAA, she is actively flying around promoting RAA by just flying ! , agree or disagree with her politics who cares ! I sure a lot of people now wish they had a plane like hers !

British Spitfire planes to be dug up in Myanmar
Camel replied to planedriver's topic in Aviation Enthusiasts
I'm going to guess and I'm confident that it is Hours Total Time Since New. TT is usually total time S is since and usual o overhaul, M maintenance, Be interested if I am correct ! 29 hours Total Time Since New sound unbelievable. -

FALSE: MH370 Pilot Mysteriously Resurfaces in Taiwan
-
So sad ! Only lasted one day I think from last spell !
-
The culprits for this disgraceful behaviour should have been dealt with ! but they are still there and have gotten away with it and still able to do more damage ! Australia is not the lucky country any more ! Remember the bomerang logo "Made in Australia" seen it lately ? , Jabiru WAS a very successful Australian aviation business !

So true, I go caught unable to continue a flight in VMC and was near Canberra and called and got immediate assistance, was told to sqwark ident and confirmed I was on radar, continue alt and heading, cleared to land at will once runway was sighted, it prevented me entering IMC and if I had delayed any longer I would have been in more serious trouble due to a storm and high ground, the controllers at Canberra did a fantastic job and very calm and reassuring, lots of red and white jets waiting for me to land.

I also just joined ! The ASIC card is a joke ! I have had one from the start and no one has ever looked ! No pilot ever committed a terrorism crime so why are pilots treated like terrorist ! In London men hired a vechicle and caused terrorism and created havoc and loss of life ! Does that mean motorist need an ASIC ? I WILL NOT RENEW MY ASIC AND I WILL OBJECT STONGLY AGAINST THIS STUPID REDICULOUS WROUGHT THAT THE GOVERNMENT CONTINUALLY ALLOWS ! This current state and federal government are the worst ever in my opinion and I admit I vote for their team but never again ! HOW CAN ANYONE BE ALLOWED TO DRIVE A CAR, RIDE A TRAIN, TAXI, PLANE OR WALK THE STREETS WITHOUT AN ASIC ? WHAT A JOKE !

Thanks for posting ! So is my understanding correct ? With both units the ADSB in and out plus position of other aircraft will show on a iPad or android screen that is being supplied GPS information. This would do away with transponder also ? -
Like you approach ! Enjoy ! Always find a laugh or some good info somewhere here !

Yes, very interesting engine you highlighted Bex ! No Rick-Shaw's in photo !

Don't call me an angry man you clown !

Mr Capt Wally ! You try to speak as an authority ! You don't realise how uninformed you appear to me ! I think Riley is better informed than you are ! What does where he live have anything to do with anything ! The whole world knows about what happened to Camit except you apparently !
