    Australian Designed Disaster ! . The ' P 76 ' that would load a 44 gallon drum into the boot, " for the farmers " . Anyone tried to lift that drum out ( of the boot ) with your fingers. spacesailor

    IS, There such a thing as fully " electrical " injection , for a two cylinder motor . spacesailor

    BUT. There seems to be an awful lot of faults in these new car's. Looked up ' Ford ' egr , lots of angst there. Mazda electrical problems . Same sort of numbers . Had to replace ' seatbelts ' in a 4 y o . Mazda 3 ! , what a problem that was. Everything had to be removed from the back of the car. Seats, quarter- panels, & all the trim around the boot to get at all the plastic fasteners. Imagine the price from a " dealership ' , plus $ 1600 each belt . ' makes me dizzy ' LoL spacesailor

    Now that's wrong !. The longer your hose the smaller the Volume getting through. The smaller volume will have reduced pressure. Happens when paint spraying with extra long hoses. spacesailor

    Only have " icing " when there's " moisture ' in the sky . SO SAID my test paper ! . spacesailor

    Makes sense. Only if you NEED/WANT a profit . Lower the ' fee's & charges ' so you Don't need to invest surplus funds. spacesilor

    My Delica will be an ' historic ' vehicle . IF, I can't bring myself to offload it . They were , earlier ( June ) selling for more than I pay'd for it 25 years ago ! . spacesailor

    BUT That Mazda motor doesn't stop when doing a gentle stop or if you use the handbrake At the lights. . spacesailor

    I've just looked at my daughters 2019 Mazda3 !. Four cylinders, but two cut out when in ' cruise ' mode, it also stops the engine at lights , when the brake pedal is pressed hard . Great for highway And town driving. spacesailor

    Similar to the trailer ' shackle ' fiasco. The pin , by law had to be yellow !. What a lot of yellow spray paint was sold . I mean the paint doesn't last long & a spray can Is the cheaper option. spacesailor

    Bell P-59 Airacomet

    But Frank Whittle did everything himself ! . And Without the financial backing he desperately needed . Hence the American involvement. And his LOSS . spacesailor

    I worked at a foundry , making aluminum ingots . All those aircfaft & parts , that we wish for now had Almost no value. No-one wanted that ' junk ' Then , we desperately needed FOOD . Brand new aircraft, never assembled, crate included, fed into furnaces. Also Harley & Indian motorbikes in crates went the same way. As well as hundreds of used odnance came by truck and rail. Sometimes we had the chance to go get it ourselves, seeing those Vast airfields & hangers full of ' everything ', That, We Want today ! . spacesailor

    Try 1/4 " ailerons up " . It works on Hummel birds & gives a few knots more speed without an increase in revs . ( perhaps less drag or something similar). spacesailor
  18. spacesailor
    Same here ! . So, no giving spare seats to our forum members. Up next is a helicopter. Do we try again ! , It , is , for charity. spacesailor

    I have , and it was FUN . It was also " roped to the back of a V8 ford ! . Yes ! , it was a 'glider ' ( autogyro ) for dual training role at Eastern Creek . spacesailor

    At $ 200 s an hour dual . Your own plane makes sense for hour building. That's the break even price to sell your dream machine or ,hire someone else's dream machine. And don't forget the dollars for your club membership! . I can't fly but just love my " Dream machine " . So should I sell it . Just because I don't use it . The Dollar spend IS in my favour, as it has NO outlay at all . spacesailor

    AND YET, This government has spent $ 75.1 MILLION on this ' voice properganda ' to ' Force ' us to vote the way They want . No care for those that are homeless, or WHERE could They do more GOOD for Australians in general .. NO apartheid should be allowed in Australia. spacesailor

    Whereas the soninlaw in a happy camper ! . Lived in Sydney & had houses in Melbourne and Brisbane. NOT all in that same basket. LoL . Sold four mortgaged houses , then bought two outright closer to home . Another acquentance sold All his Sydney properties , then bought outright , 5 Hobart houses , were he currently lives, With his new yacht . Only for the wealthy end of town ! . spacesailor

    My soninlaw put the deposit's on at least four houses to lease them out. two in Melbourne and two in Brisbane , As all those were Not in his vicinity. He had to do the yearly inspection and maintenance by staying in a hotel with meals included . When he returned to Sydney , all his receipts went to his Accountant . Who promptly deducted All from Any tax he had from his Electrician business . PS . He lived at \ with his parents . So not a lot of outgoing expense there . NOW is a GreyNomad . with two Sydney rentals supplementing his retirement AND Happy . spacesailor

    What could be FAIRER The fact my son inlaw , Pay's LESS INCOME tax . ( negative gearing). He buys a New Ute, and lawnmower, as well as his fuel cost are covered . Then all the interest on his loans ! , ARE TAX DEDUCTIBLE. We the highly Taxed owner occupier ,get NOTHING . IS IT FAIR . spacesailor
