Has any body got a list of mnemonics used in training?
l have never used them in the past but my instructor qoutes them often to me.
There are a few listed in Bob Taits book but not the ones we use.

l have found flying does burn up a lot of money, but your a long time dead. :)
Working towards a PPL so l can fly a RV8 in the experimental catagry, planning in doing some touring in it a bit later.
On a side note l am going for my medical tomorrow, my doc says l will have no problems.
It does worry me the fact that l had both hips replaced late last year.

just a quick question, l am training for my PPL and am currently learning in Piper.
l can save $40 a hour switching to a RAA Jabiru.
Is it a good idea?? l know l will have to go back to it later.

l would be looking at a guage that can also drive a warning light.
You should be checking guages regulary, a light just brings it to your attention more quickly and thus may avoid a bigger problem.

Yes but the Suburu looks a great replacement for a 0-360 and at that price :)

l have searched and cant find a definative answer, also see it is hot topic with a lot of yeh's and nehs.
Have or when, if, are the MTOW weights going up for RAA registration here?
regards Bruce

A trained ear could also tell?

Thanks for the advice, l have bought in heaps of car parts for projects over the years so know some of the tricks of shipping.
If possible l would like to shop here BUT l dont want waste money paying too much.
Looks like l will be purchasing a RV8 kit, just trying to sought out shipping and weather l get a fast build wing.
Saw there is a tool kit available for it, but l would have some tools here from a few car restorations.

Where's the best place to purchase aircraft tools?
Preferably in Melbourne, good prices with good quility.
They will be for a metal skined kit, l already have a garage full of automotive tools but need some specality aircraft stuff.

There is a Suzuki and Honda engine conversion that would give 183hp and 270hp, but with two adults and fuel it would be 840kg.
Not against this but l wouldent mind a certified engine.
As for the Chev they say its not suitable at all.
l would love the spit but it would be twice the price finished.
Should also add that l will get the engine package when its closer to being finished.

The prop is a recomended one the Jabiru.
A fixed prop isnt out of the qeustion.
Yes l know l need a PPL license and register it as a experimental.

l have selected a T-51 kit (80% Mustang replica) to buy next year, does this sound a reasonable combination considering it was first designed for a Rotax 912 at 100hp and now there putting 250hp Honda auto engines in them.
l was thinking of equiping a T-51 with a Jabiroo 3300 (now 125Hp) and using a Airmaster AP332 constant speed prop.
MTW Can be 850kgs but would be closer to 700-750kgs.
l am open to suggestions.

Thanks
Will give them a call.

Can anybody help me with a easy to read guidlines for experimantal aircraft here in Australia?
The important questions are
Where can l fly it?
When?
Can l fly over popullated areas?
l have read stuff on the CASA site saying that you can apply for certificates to do some things but in reality how easy are they to comply with or get?
l am looking to purchase a kit aircraft that may have a MTW of 840kg.
