The result of Engine Off on the Grass and Walking away, sounds and looked like if it isn't it should be Textbook.

Did anything come out of Narromine to support the much discussed AC Wt increase

Very Very interesting. HP to Wt looks good. Just have to get the hours up it would seem. :pig::pig::pig:

Is this under GA or RA....serious question!

Looks unreasonable. Reasonable people do what is proven, tested & safe. Unreasonable people change the world.:rotary: -
Hi Blackhawk Any joy from the testing Regards :pig::pig::pig: can fly

Hi All This week I found a 1.3L Suzuki aftermarket turbocharger running 14lb pressure in a Suzuki GTI (Car) that achieves 180HP at the wheels from 3000 to 8000rpm that's been running for a couple of years as an every day drive. Maybe we have a contender for a 2:1 stepdown running at 5500 - 6000rpm running a prop at 2750 - 3000 rpm seems in the power band. :cool:eyecast:cool:

RAA and 750Kg Chris I tend to agree, just because the a/c is under 600Kgs does not mean it's not complicated. But with increased weight we can't us a rubber band with paper wings and a netball field to get off the ground. So with a larger wt & a few more hp this may require a longer strip, training, knowlege and endorsment for the spercific a/c, just like we do now right. eyecast

It's Unanomous the Stig is Anonomous just like a lot on this forum. ARRRRR WERRRR ALLLL STIGGGGGG eyestigcast :black_eye:;););););):black_eye:

It just seems to me that there is a range of a/c's out there that would suit the Recreational Class in a 600 to 750 Kg weight range. Yes I agree that thay are no longer Ultralite and shouldn't be labled as such. Eyecast:yuk::yuk::yuk:

Will the plane take off Movement through air gives lift. Ground movement has no effect unless air moves over a flying surface. It is possible to take off and fly backwards in relation to the ground. eyecast:pig::pig:

Possible Developments with 750kg ? Hi All Is there any movement in the regulation as yet??? eyecast

Have a contact that arranged Insurance for a privately purchased used LSA imported from USA in last 6 months. eyecast

Yes. Air movement over the wing caused lift. The air is the parcel not the ground. The prop causes air movement over the wing giving lift. The position of the prop/jet/s in relation to the flying surface/s vary the lift. :;)3::;)3:eyecast:radioactive:

Hi What a ride. Thanks for all the comments. I think we should wait for Blackhawk's test results on of the 1.4L I certainly understand that the higher the energy load the shorter the life of any engine. The whole process of putting an engine into an AC is a balance, along with many other aspects of building any AC. If the little Turbo Suzi (1.3 or 1.4L) turns out to be a realistic alternative power plant that runs at 75% of the current article that's still 135 - 150 HP. I would like that HP getting off a shot field and from 0 - 2000 feet. We all await further testing and certification. eyecast:hug:
