  1. I think the 95 doesn't stink as much as the 98 , but ive found that it doesnt smell through the red silicone hose , The flexible hight pressure hose seems to be the issue , Has any body heard about the 100 no led for aircraft use ?
  2. Drones with motion sensors to detect animals programmed to automatically patrol airstrips . What a great idea Dafydd Mike
  3. The Hawker strip was upgraded a couple years ago with big fences at the "request " of RFDS . I did hear that some where in qld a while ago when a PC12 hit a horse , I think that was the last straw and RFDS wanted upgrades to bush strips
  4. Soun sounds like a precursor to identity theft ! Unless you were ordering C4
  5. I thi i think your right though , i carnt see drones flying around the country side or town without some idiot taking a pot shot , Its a great concept , but will take a huge step in human evolution for it to become a reality !
  6. Yea , i think your right there , Ive got a couple of concepts on the drg. Board for all electric single seater , and the avocet has the potential to be a hybrid , ( plenty of room ) but i dont think it'll get into RAA , mtow 750 kgs , unless the batteries become lighter . Ive been waiting with anticipation for the batt technology to catch up with ambition ! Cheers mike
  7. I found c/ tex 98 has a lot of aromatics and it made my fuel lines soft ! 95 still has aromatics but not as much . I can smell the fuel through the pirtec fuel lines on the multipoint SDS But on the rotec TBI the red silicon lines are ok . Mike
  8. If you get rid of the shooters you'll have more kangaroos to hit ! Seems like culling is the best option around airfields .
  9. Have you seen a hybrid plane yet ? And CASA works for you to , Safe airlines and all that crap , or not .
  10. I hope thats the case , And no , CASA works for me ! Yes i recon hybrid is the way to go , but ill be surprised if you'll get all of that ,for 600 kgs mtow Mike .
  11. Now that you mention this , what do marine people use ? Might be worth talking to and finding out their supply of ethanol free!
  12. Thanks for that , I'm using bp 95 Cheers mike
  13. Kaz , you beet me to that one !
  14. You'll get kids sitting down the road under a tree just waiting to see what they can shoot out of the sky , wouldn'tyou for chocolate cake !!
  15. Marine mogas , ? Please give more info Mike
  16. I thought that having a public liability for ALA covered you ? Ive got one , but have a sneaking thought that its not worth the paper its written on . ( thats why i keep the front end loader handy down near the creek ). Lol Mike
  17. A jabiru and a land rover owner ! We will have to organise a new club !

  20. I think that changing battery packs would have to done by suitably qualified folk , i don't think it would be like changing batteries in a flash light ! Cheers mike

    Seems to me that this is just another microcosm of whats already going on in the rest of the world . . "Everybody thinks there right in there own eyes " ( no where have i red that , script & verse ) no matter how-smart , educated , dumb , or stupid . Mike
  22. It will still be about the weight of the battery's , Are those billions going towards light weight alternatives ? I hope so . Exciting times on the electric horizon . .
