I was going to post a pic of my build project. But I'm worried someone will have dig at the sticky tape and super glue... But that's how it says to do it? See the instructions come from china and quote " stick gusset longaron - riveting". , so I stuck it with glue and sticky tape and to tell you the truth it wasn't that riveting? Was boring actually .

Great pics Samuel... Enjoyed them muchly. Thanks mate

My current replica Nieuport 11.C.1, My current Replica Chinook, my current Original Winton Jackaroo. My old lightwing (just sold). And Patricks Fisher/Drifter with Nieuport couple days ago..

Great score Doug. I need to check it out :). Yeh looks like an 84 , t83 has no lower battens mate,And ran my fav eng the robin ec44.. I did a rebuild and put 60 hours in my T83. I REALLY WANT IT BACK !!! new owner never regoed and did 1 lesson and called it quits... It's sitting in a shed somewhere in Vic. Past 4 years... :( My ol girl in 2012 Day before sale :(

Yeh I'll PM you copy of the wing plans ( pretty sure their around here somewhere?) next few days..... tyro are the same. Almost identical minus the anti flip over front wheel. The Black is done for movie and it will actually suffer an out landing ;) all in the book " The Diary of Jack Flyer" ( and thread on here).

Wheels off lightwing.

Yes mate, recent pic as restoring currently. Was originally red. Slightly modified. Ie- tyro pod. And custom control column. Wings are alloy , fibreglass and fabric. ... Was in very poor condition when purchased but now like new.sports all new hardware throughout,cables etc.. Has the original robin EC44 And just got a prop from a forum member.. Not a lot left- ailerons connected, new windscreen to purchase and some gauges and done..Black Betty will be ready for movie :)

Thanks Nik. Will spread the word no worries mate...

I plan on coming, maybe in the Nieupy if I can organise support for fuel etc...

Been busy busy busy... After the sale of my mighty lighty I Have a new hangar (hangar No.3). 12x7 mtrs. Ready to be assembled once council build permission is finalised. Mean while I'm flat out constructing a new runway. 460 mtrs long for higher performance aircraft ;) Estimate 3-4 weeks to complete ... Also on the side still tinkering away with the one and only " Black Betty". Not to far off either Here's a vid filmed yesterday with a ummmm. Errrr. Ahhhhh. Ummm drone lol:surrender: And pic of black Betty

Well done. Hell of a lot of hours put in there. Glad you stayed motivated to finish it.. Massive accomplishment mate. Congrats.

RIP Howie. Condolences to family and friends Sad loss indeed......

Lucky for me she dosnt go outside!! Wonder how long till she noticed I attached a 7 x12 mtr hangar to the side of the house with an entry door between them? Lol

Unfortunatly I couldn't get time myself to fly her over for him. :(. She should arrive late this arvo.

Was a sad day yesterday as I said goodbye to an old loyal friend.., My lady Lea. ( LW-1 lightwing sold 6 weeks ago) It was finally picked up. I took new owner fir a fly but in reality was enjoying the lady and my last encounter.. We had many a awesome adventure over the 200+ hrs she gave me and I'll miss her but now the future awaits. New project in the works. ( to be announced in good time) At present flying the nieuport most days and just starting a new build. A Hangar Build. Yep building a 12 x 7 mtr ENCLOSED Hangar. With floor :) And working on a 4-500 mtr runway :) As apposed to the current 300 mtr. Ps ... The Lightwing was trailered home. Not fun pulling down

I am one of those who is privileged to have met Bex, his wife and his parents.. Like me he is a dream maker..... Motivated, Determined, passionate and inventive. Not just chasing dreams but capturing them... I have witnessed his ingenuity and am proud of his efforts.... That's PROUD.... not jealous or envious!!!!!! How do you know when your life is going great? When you have a jealous envious stalker/s Attempting to bring you down... Ha ha FAT CHANCE Lol. I have my own stalker.... My stalker is a lazy dumb ass that can't make there own success.... Instead seeing others ( me) loving life ,they think that they can somehow steal our ( my) happiness and Excitement ,but instead they just feed there own insecurities , depression and lack of worth... Little tip. Stuff everyone else. Stop worrying about them!!!!! Live life for yourself ,Choose your own destiny. Be inspired ( not envious) Be motivated, determined ( Not jealous) Be Positive not negative... Go out and find your own dreams and make them a success or follows others with admiration. Stop worrying about others making there dreams a reality and make your own... "DREAM, BELIEVE, ACT." Jack Flyer 2015...... Here's to the future , cheers It's great to see you putting yourself out there Bex. Well done mate. Keep it up.

Had a small flyin at hind marsh island, so saddled up my wars horse and off we went..56nm. @48knts IAS with 56 GS . Landed at Hindmarsh international ( private property)were the owner Barry keeps his a Tigermoth. Another 6 planes soon followed. Had a great chat and brunch then departed in company of 2 drifters. Enjoyed small tour of island airfields then I broke away to journey home.. 2.1 hrs flying and 24ltrs fuel used. :). Next flyin. Lamaroo 21 April 9:30am.

Here's to the future mate, Your ingenuity is set to revolutionise the home build world in amazingly simple way. Far to many home builds and kit planes go unfinished due to a few common hurdles. Ie.. Build time to long and builders loose enthusiasm , build to complex and again enthusiasm is lost. Also the hidden costs of specialised tools can become very expensive and off putting. So to be able to build quickly, easily and with common tools well,............,. Think you hit the nail on the head Bex. Well done mate.

Goolwa Sa . Has tank/ pump mogas

Enjoying the great WX :)
