That was my intention. Untill I was told I could never gain a RAA certificate. I still want to gain that certificate, but age is against it . Question : if you lose your " driving licence " because of age. Are you automatically stripped of your " flying certificate " . spacesailor

These Hummel-Birds do look a lot better , as mr Hummel designed it. spacesailor Rob, see photo's previous .

Because, those legs do bend easily, and that wear , plus the rusting on that area . Is a known problem . It's only a tiny aircraft , & I suspect the leg could be made just a little stronger. After a few years of having a ' training wheel ' at the front I was intending to change the ' Hummelbird ' to a conventional tail dagger, eliminating the nose wheel problem. spacesailor

So ! Is that embrittlement ,such a bad thing , on the ( inner )straight piece of the front leg , made of ' cheap mild-steel ' . It seems a good thing to stiffen that piece of pipe up . A bit, instead of it being bendy. As well as "wear proofing " it a lot . It's all made up, so cannot put a better ( tenstile ) part in , then weld it to the forks . I have not made enquiries as to the pricing of said plating, ( for half the pipe length ). It could be out of my ' pensioner ' pocket money . spacesailor

' T ' panel. Inclinometer ' in the middle ' . I've haven't seen that one . Usually the Inclinometer is near the bottom of the panel . spacesailor

Is there a ' set standard ' . spacesailor

Just tell those ' weirdo's ' that the government , just puts it in your water . No'one cares . spacesailor

Double ' nuts ' here . Two bodied " mp for the Seat of " Higgins " . spacesailor

Now with a new name " Bristell Classic ". They also have an ' Electric trainer ' . The company should go far . spacesailor

Thank you . One in a ( forum ), or hundreds. spacesailor

And from " small beginnings ", an airline pilot could emerge. spacesailor

Get smaller wings . LoL Mine . 6gs X 6gs . Just short of being 95-10- 1103 registered . spacesailor

Then again . My Hummel-Bird doesn't fit " 95-10-1103 '' category either. It's wings are too small . Even through it was a " registered " aircraft . ( under AUF ) . V H experimental, or back to RAAus as a new registration , ' 95-19-whatever ' . I would swap for a ' 103 ' aircraft . To get away from " them who like to be gods ". spacesailor

Maintenance. IF , you can fly with two cylinders. Your Maintenance is minimal. But . Electric is better. Maintenance is less than minimal. spacesailor

sound , As it's torque is at low revolutions. Just like a Harley, only better . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_76NV_JhM8 spacesailor

Tried that ! . It was advertised as an " Advanced driving course " . but, It turned out to be the opposite. No spinning around to escape . ( as opposed to the normal 3 point turn ) . Reverse is a faster geat than first. So, speed away in Reverse. neutral, turn a little , Hand brake . Spin the front, opposite lock ,3 rd gear. & speed away . It was Just , ' drive slow & be aware of dogs and old people ' . spacesailor

I like the 'Dovetail ' but it is a " turboprop " . spacesailor

Using old language. 100 Ah " lithium battery " powering a 40 hp motor . That is what ultralight aircraft need . They were the forefront of flying for many decade's. The Hummel-Bird looks a great candidate for a new EV modification. but with it's 6 ltrs p hour . Not many will bother converting . spacesailor

But this Aviator couldn't get his certificate. two planes one hanglider zero citified . I bought a two seater trike for " someone " to fly me . What is a none pilot . A walker . Or forum member, just to keep ' in the loop ' . spacesailor

Not so , with the New Super gadgetry cars . My favourite! . Mercedes automatic seat adjustment. That if stopped, before the cycle has Finnished Requires a new module to be installed . spacesailor

" the above does not allow for aggressive ( illegal )behaviour " . You wrote it yourself . & there's the problem. Especially Those new racing drivers , with their new Ps . TheY also enjoy those " Driver Annoying Devices " . That are bad for ( miss Daisy ( Driving miss Daisy)) . Old or inferm with aching bones , being shaken around . spacesailor

The" stupidity " of the ' new ' rule is the car not yet " in the roundabout " can speed- up " & cut you off as you enter . He's breaking the speed limit . But your in the wrong . That I had to see if it's true. ' no. more give way to your right ' First in best dressed . spacesailor

My ' mobility scooter ' has two 40 ah lead acid batteries. That cost more than a 100 ah marine battery . More importantly is the fact that an empty battery weighs almost the same as a full one , so , the aircraft doesn't go out of balance like my Hummel-Bird. Take off with the ( over your legs ) fuel tnk full , heavy nose . Land with near empty tnk , & tail heavy . Easier to stall in landing configuration. spacesailor
