Latest issue of Sport Pilot has a QR code linking to a Survey as to what should be done with Sport Pilot moving forward. As someone who rarely finds more than one article worth reading per issue it was good to be able to give some feedback

Exercise Talisman Sabre is on at the moment so there are a few more American Military aircraft around at the moment

You can always use the "Ignore function" for posters like facthunter It would be a pity for you to stop posting. There will always be the comments from the peanut gallery, usually made evident by asserting a fact and failing to back it up with any evidence whilst telling you to research it yourself. Best just to ignore them and move on

There will always be people who make claims with out the evidence to back them up. The people who have the failures tell anyone who will listen, the people with no issues rarely tell anyone. Majority of the failures are typically linked to poor maintenance. I always ran 2-5% Motul 2 stroke oil as premix in my oil injected 2 strokes, give you a little bit of safety margin if the oil injection system fails

I have a Nostalgair Supa Pup and have the manuals for it, not sure it is the same as a Mk4 Supapup though

I did the 2 day practical L1 course at Wings out West in Dubbo. Was a great experience even if I had done most of the practical component previously. Was run by Darren Barnfield from RAAus and Dan from Wings out West.

Lots of rumours floating around that Amber Aviation are about to lose their lease for Tooradin, hopefully the new lessee is a bit more friendly and accommodating to visiting pilots.

Do a great job. You could also try a cup of concrete 😉

I've been planning to install seat heaters in my next build. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004981517799.html?src=google&pdp_npi=4%40dis!AUD!24.75!19.79!!!!!%40!12000031230573150!ppc!!!&src=google&albch=shopping&acnt=742-864-1166&isdl=y&slnk=&plac=&mtctp=&albbt=Google_7_shopping&aff_platform=google&aff_short_key=UneMJZVf&gclsrc=aw.ds&&albagn=888888&&ds_e_adid=&ds_e_matchtype=&ds_e_device=c&ds_e_network=x&ds_e_product_group_id=&ds_e_product_id=en1005004981517799&ds_e_product_merchant_id=107747560&ds_e_product_country=AU&ds_e_product_language=en&ds_e_product_channel=online&ds_e_product_store_id=&ds_url_v=2&albcp=21819463808&albag=&isSmbAutoCall=false&needSmbHouyi=false&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=21819486122&gbraid=0AAAAA99aYpft7EHYrVvAiOBPb8L5mgJa2&gclid=Cj0KCQjw64jDBhDXARIsABkk8J7dA5vgSkLeNIzTvswhJ_H-TH0CaGYk2KQmiRQh5DtSpto1yLdtNqYaAp29EALw_wcB

I live on steep land, steep enough that a car can slide down the hill with the handbrake on and most 4wd's will not make it to the top of the back paddock if it is wet. My cows on the other hand have no problem with it

Unfortunately there is no provision for ICUS under RAAus. Seems to be a shortcoming in their regulations

A 2db change is typically barely noticeable but it comes down to the individual.
