The Therm

RossK I'm glad I asked, I had the same issue landing the Jab, even controlling the bloody thing taxiing lol. I switched to another Instructors aircraft, Tecnam and had no issues whatsoever. The Jab (for me at least was a lot harder to handle, the instructor said its the way the nose wheel is controlled, single rather than dual?). I am now flying the Jab and ALL is good but I couldn't believe the difference in the on ground handling.

Hey Ross, what aircraft are you flying?

well done mate, saw your other video as well:plane:

Weather dependent!!!

Who has the best breaky, Gympie or Childers? Depending on answers we'll see ya there :-)

They've been doing that in the UK for 15 years or so Bruce, minus the machine guns

Don't see any 'progress' in what you have referred to there, just change'.

Off Topic Alf but just passed my Cert in the Tecnam, beautiful Aircraft.

Little information available but Accident report states 27-11-2017 18:30 781 / WM VIC Accident Yarrawonga Airfield P&M Quik GTR Pilot elected to land ahead of a storm front moving through the area. Pilot experienced turbulence due to a gust front (which are known to extend many kilometers ahead of a storm cell) Pilot experienced severe turbulence during late final and roundout causing impact with runway. Aircraft damaged on impact. Pilots should familiarize themselves with the gust front phenomenon and adjust landing decisions accordingly. see -

Hi Scre, TBH I was caught out on a couple of questions and had to go back to revise, I have only recently gone to 3 Axis from Weight Shift and the bias was obviously centered on that, I guess my mechanical skills were not quite up to speed . I enjoyed it though. Yes Training information was good and the exam was comprehensive. Good luck and Enjoy

Without being terse, it doesn't matter what the question is, the fact that a response states 7 - 15 business days, to me, seems unacceptable.

Hi Tony, yes just did that, cheers! It was there; I thought it would have been communicated to us but anyway, there it is

Has this been covered before? Does anyone else find the automated RAaus email stating that they will respond in 7 - 15 Business Days a little frustrating? My business wouldn't survive if I had that as a general response to queries.

Did the L1 about a month ago and have heard nothing. Though just passed sign off on 3 axis and submitted paperwork and the response via email was, we'll be in touch in 7 - 15 business days. Shoddy service!

late response but RAA now state 7 - 15 business days for a response. WT?

great vid

Instructor got me to do just this last week in the Tecnam, no crosswind component but a great exercise to just 'feel' the aircraft.

If it can happen to John its probably time for me to find a new Hobby..... Sad day. Hoping they find out the cause of this. :-(

Was some great air displays today but I would have liked to have seen more pilot and aviation stands, Ozrunways and Fraser Coast Airpark were the only ones I came across

Excellent Vid Chris!

Air Creation Buggy, 582, 3 Blade Eco Prop Arplast Guys, I am only acheiving 6150 RPM on Max Power, this is with the blades set as specified on the Arplast paperwork and utilising their Prop Tool, is this Correct???? I would have expected a higher RPM rate as the Rotax 582 is (I Believe) supposed to be set for 6500.

Enjoy it m8, they look excellent fun

Well done mate, looks absolutely great.
