  1. ctp , When it 'started ' it was for " accident victims " , now the rest of the sick but none accident people are getting new , expensive equipment, & house modifications. All from that " CTP ", that only the motorists pays . Seems like we're being taken to the cleaners . spacesailor
  2. But a " none flyer " is still " a none flyer " . And should not require any bureaucratic law . To sell it . ( buyer beware). spacesailor
  3. If ' unregistered ' . Is a condition report necessary. How to get said ' report ' for a none flying , unregistered aircraft !. I don't believe I'll be allowed to fly in to get a condition report . And no insurance as it would be invalid. spacesailor
  4. " 30 k stall & 130 k cruise `` . is35k stall & 100 mph cruise any good . The economy is the best at single figures , per hour .( 6, lph ). spacesailor

  8. Yes Different. But The same , parts to buy O,M,E, or off the shelf . spacesailor
  9. I have tried to ' keep ' my 4wheei drive , spares in check , but, if I follow all those list's that tell you " you need this & that " to be certain of having the ' spare ' of the moment. I would have to " tow a complete vehicle behind me . spacesailor
  10. Complicated. It must be ' D ' learning " Morse code ", takes two people ( transmission & recipient ) over that cup of " latte ". To help you pass the " radio transmitting " licence. It should be good for ' most ' transmitters . spacesailor
  11. Luckily I'm out. Clear prop , start engine , snuggle into my cockpit , And dream " I'm soaring like an eagle " . LoL I can laugh now . spacesailor
  12. I missed out . The very first airshow I attended had run-out. ( that was planned) . The one ' after ' the very last ' Schofield's Airshow " . But for the life of me I can't remember where it was held . spacesailor
  13. With two ' hose spigots ' double the leakage ' . I tried two inline filters with two taps . ( and Y joiner) making twelve hose clips . Now, I'm back to " gascolator " that has a fuel drain / tester . Just double " mr filter " all the fuel going into your tank . spacesailor

  20. F V None members cannot log in or check if their aircraft is still on the RAA register. ( AUF registered but castout from RAA ) . spacesailor
  21. I meant. You pay a fee , sit a test, & hopefully ' issued ' with the licence to operate that " allocated " frequency band . The next category, you sit almost that same test for another frequency band . So now you have two licences ,H F & VHF . ( marine) . Sit the same nominal rest again to gain ' Aviation VHF " air to air " . But not for " ground to air . Sit another test to gain another licence, for ' ground controllers licence. All on top of your " Amateur Radio transmitting " licence . spacesailor
  22. Oops. I lost a letter . Sorry . Markdum . spacesailor
  23. $ 10 pound ,( now, French euro ) " war-surplus " . It would have been wonderful to have ' foresight ' to have kept a few " spitfires & mustangs " that became " export earning " aluminium ingots . spacesailor
