  1. Can you use a size from the ones that Atec or Bushcat use. The brand they use seem to hold up in use. Just buy the size you need. We need in use R&D feedback from you and others. Agree wondered why cannot buy through his ATEC dealership connections.
  2. The video is great to show what occurred; however, we always need to consider previous landing effects as the nose leg may have had an accumulation of fatigue / stress from similar landing hits to the nose leg at speed or from rough surfaces. Thanks for the post video Gary. Cheers.

  4. Let us know in advance so we can get the fire trucks to form a water cannon arch over the taxi way:)
  5. Flylight may have a duplicate copy of the docket, if you may need it for requesting a refund drop them an email. Always very helpful over there. Cheers and good luck.
  6. Hi Guy I received a small order yesterday makes aircraft parts no duty. Did your delivery have this type of note description?
  7. Close up of lift plates (3mm s/s) fitted regarding images in March of fitting new undercarriage design for 600kg. I also cut some black tube to protect the paint on the flap covers edge paint.
  8. Maybe someone could make a list of plans, kits and factory built 'FAR 103' aircraft that RAAus would register as 95.10.
  9. A friend mentioned that RAAus / Sport Pilot adds cost $400- plus. Same person mentioned Plane Sales was $75-. He has a current advert posted with Palne Sales.
  10. Details on facebook; Red drifter 19-3227. Drifter Appreciation Society. I'm assisting the owner with its sale. Has all receipts for rebuild by an experienced rotax two stroke re-builder; logs and full run-in documentation record. Just an idea for you, Cheers.
  11. Probably no help; there is a drifter for sale at Mackay for $14K ono with rebuilt 582 electric start and only 5 hours since rebuild. Invoice for parts was $7k plus. Maybe buy and sell airframe less engine.
  12. Yep, rain is often referred to as liquid sunshine. ASDIP - Another shitty day in paradise. Cheers.
  13. Like everywhere there are good and bad days.
  14. Another fabulous winters day in the North. IMG_7687.mov IMG_7673.mov
  15. Being in a position of organisations is similar to being a referee or umpire at times in my experience.
  16. Mine when working has middle blinking green and the ones either side lit green.
  17. Plus it’s maintenance status and category . Eg factory built and L2 maintained and maintenance uptodate etc?
  18. Good plan. North of Sydney would be nice. The central coast has great areas. The big cities are getting too full of people and traffic etc. either side of Newcastle would not be too far by the sounds of it. Would be more opportunity of hangar spaces I believe. For me North Queensland with Central NSW beaches would be perfect. Hope will barrack for Queensland at State of Origin time.
  19. Were you in the blue one about 11:30?
  20. How much per year?
  21. Agree, Spacey would be nice to see some images, side on, panel and engine etc.
  22. Just to add some real world experience. Had a UMA air switch connected as per the wiring diagram. After much disappointment of it not working and about to send back tried reversing the positive and negative and it worked. A go figure moment. Working still now 345 hours later. Murphy is always up there springing surprises.
  23. You could drill and cut hex profile for the nut shape out of flat bar and buy or borrow a tap to cut the thread. A bit of time but will deliver easily what you need. Could fab up in aluminium to be lighter. Taps cost about 20 to 30 dollars.
