  1. Sold Chute. $12000 no offers for trike. Will part out in April. I know, I should have listed in classifieds instead of the forum, Sorry. Will deliver inside NSW. PH 0400859835 or 0265537266.
  2. The Outback is RAA registered till March the 31st. Needs new air filter and fuel drain, Also comes with 2007 Thinpack chute, replacement cost over $2300. Free NSW delivery. Selling due to other aircraft commitments.
  3. don't start me:angry: You missed the point entirely David. Do some research. I'm referring to entry level aircraft, for student pilots. Not your long term plans. I Spoke to 5 schools and 3 different microlight suppliers about a pilots first trike, All the people I spoke to, were leading down the 912 road in conversation, prove me wrong? Who is killing off the 2 strokes?
  4. Selling Airborne Outback 2002 model with 2005 wizard wing. Contact me if Interested, $18,000.ono Engine 420hrs wing 150hrs, comes with radio, comms, headsets and helmet. Pannier bags and Stone net. Wing bag and Aircraft logs. Located NSW. Cheers Outback Bob.
  5. 582 Rotax with 420hrs, tolerances like new. 50hrs a year.
  6. 2 stroke oil injection systems are suss in my opinion. saw an edge classic blow engine at 220hrs at what was a reputable flying school. Ever seen anyone filter oil into an oil tank? I havn't. one piece of dirt or grit in system and its all over rover. The 2 strokes are still going to be around for years to come, Old grey tops are still getting around. All the suppliers and Instructors seem to be pushing the 912 as an entry level aircraft these days and claim the 2 strokes are dead. I don't know many level 1 maintainers able to service or repair these aircraft, drums up business for the few. 2strokes have less moving parts than 4strokes. Remember this when an instructor is pushing a second hand 912 for the price of a fixed wing.
  7. The 912 was designed to be used as a tractor engine, not a pusher. I did my flight training on the first XT912 from the factory, the aircraft had temperature reading issues, in pusher config, later came fibreglass cowling. along with having to crank engine to get oil pressure before switching the mags on. fantastic engines, still finding its compatabillity with some aircraft configurations.
