    I was just reading about the no-fly zone on the Internet and thought I would jump off to flight radar and have a look. Look at the flight tracking for this Etihad flight from Moscow to Abu Dhabi. It's transponder is going on and off by the look of the tracking and it is actually in around airspace. This was up-to-date as of 13:30 this afternoon.  Strange ?

    When I was about 150' AGL, the plane started an uncommanded left bank. I started to correct in the usual manner with a slight pressure on the ailerons, but the plane didn't respond as I expected it to. 

    I dont quite understand trying to correct via the ailerons in that situation , where MY instinctive reaction is apply opposite rudder  . Lift the wing with rudder , "fly the wing".

    ( in the situation you described )

    I Ian,

     

    Yes its great stuff, reminiscent (same smell and tackiness??) as most of the pre silicon sealants. I  have had the same tube of STAG in my plumbing tool box for possibly 8- 10 years - used sparingly works a treat. You think it would work around the studs on a flange mounting, as depicted previously??

    Yeah , I have tubes in various stages of use for donkies !  I use it on all tube/hose fittings including fuel sender to tank seals , and mine are side mounted......no leaky...nicee.

    If I get a chance i'll see if I can get a pic under the dash of one installation.
