Using rotary hand pumps for refueling with MoGas
lyle janke replied to matt walsh's topic in AUS/NZ General Discussion
hi i have something similiar on drawing board instead using 200lit drum . the pump used if it is an e-bay issue is not sealed & is advertised as diesel only . the blue e-bay model is listed as suitable for petrol but has a disclaimer "not to be used to pump avgas" what is the difference to normal fuel?? or is it a legal issue what would 1 need to to modify to overcome legal issues for private use ? the only issue that come to mind immediately is static /earthing issues with pump/installation . the pump already has an extra threaded hole on body of pump so i thinks manufacturer already uses this pump in an aviation environment elswhere . my research so far identifies the main delivery fuel hose also as being an issue . is the e-bay version suitable for an aviation environment & able to disperse static build-up maybe change hose to suitable version & create earthing to unit & problem solved any thoughts as to whether i`m on right track any aviation units i`ve found are more than double the price & make the task of refuelling not cost effective any more for the casual flyer who wants to get away from fumbling with gerry cans lyle -

hi i was just reading about this on the forum recently . all this means for me is i would be able to finish a part finished PPL licence & fly a plane i can`t get any one to do maintenance on in reality i want a plane in a registration formula that i can easily get maintained all the time without constant hassles from non-existant LAME`S to get maintenance done at the end of he day there is not enough LAME`S to do maintenance for the small guy in the aviation industry , as a comparision you can get a mechanic to work on what ever vehicle you have but try & get a LAME to work on what ever plane you have it is like pulling teeth without anesthetic ( painful ) dis-allusioned lyle

hi is this the new RA-AUS limil proposal ??? i had heard that 600 or 750 kg was being considered & then shelved this means my plane would now fit into the revised RA-AUS limit then i can get rid of the VH registration& re-build
-
hi i looked @ that option too but the plane is just too heavy. new weight category that was being proposed would have been the answer but i believe the idea was abandoned so no luck with that idea thanks lyle
