Hi Brian,I would love to have my J230 prop dynamically balanced so if you feel like a trip to Cobden (Vic.) that would be great. (or I could come to you)

PS Was that your aircraft outside the Jabiru forum hanger at Temora.

Hi Bill.

Whatever is easiest for you. A cuppa and a biscuit are always here at the marsh.

Let me know, I am always looking for a reason to go for a fly. :)

And yes, that was our 160 at Temora.

....but apparently the music cuts out when you transmit and when your radio picks up a transmission..

The music is low enough to listen to it in the background. The radio is louder than the music and when you transmit the music cuts out, and comes back in when you close mic.

Compulsion...You don't have to have multi million dollar headsets to do it.

This is the song we taxi and take off to, Little River Bands' Album " The Definative Collection" is a pleasure to listen to while we fly.

Amenities.

EightyKnots...

Iridiums do very well, and even in the 6cyl in her she has no problems.

One too many schnapps?

Thank you for posting that KC.

opinion on good and bad points..

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but it gets way out of hand to the extent it needs moderating.

A help section for the aircraft that you are after would be good, but any "bashing" will be automatically deleted.

I am trying to learn as much as I can about my toy, and I also want to be as safe as I can.

It is a good idea when you get your services done by your LAME/L2 to be there with him when he does it. Identifying and learning about the Jab, and how it operates, is one of the most rewarding things.

When Brian does services on either ours or other Jabs, I am always with him, and even though I don't fly I have become very familiar with how the servicing is done and what needs to be looked at when the certain hourlys come up.

This sensitive IPad keyboard again caused an unfinished post to go yet again !! . I wanted to finish by saying that individuals need to make their own decisions as to what legally conforms and this post should only be considered as my interpretion of the current situation.Bob

Eric,

OME is correct.

15W-50 only.

Brian.

Had a quick look and haven't got a good clear picture of the door pockets, but it is 1.6 aluminium checker and it goes the full length of the door, the front section is about the same height as a standard pocket from jabiru and then the back section is made about half the height of the front. It is attached by pop rivets, the ones that expand on the back when they are compressed to give maximum spread on the inside of the door frame.

Alan, have a look on our video that we made and you can see it on pax side.

Mardy,

We have aluminium checkerplate that goes across the inside of the door.

1. It gives you 2 nice pockets

2. If you accidently kick it with your foot getting in and out, you don't damage it.

3. Looks real nice.

-Linda

Well done Evan, you can come away with us now.

Brian and Linda

Has it got the insulators under the non sparking coil?

Interesting how the East had fog all day. Over the West we had the most perfect day. Nil wind and clear as.

Late arvo we had it roll in about 5ish and it was like waves on a beach coming in with the tide, and by 7pm it was like Pea soup.

Nice to see you got your face on the TV Jack!!

-Linda

Excellent video!

Although the big fan stopping at the front would make me panic a bit.

I couldn't do it, I would be like this:

Leads in the direction of rotation

Mmmmm cheese sandwich looks good

I believe Jeb Corliss is over in China at the moment working on something after his near miss in January this year.

-Linda

hi thanks what i mean is i took the right hand coil which worked and the engine run , and replaced the left coil with the working coil and set the air gap but even with a proven coil i still didnt get spark , i removed the ground wire from the coil still no spark , i will have a go at seeing if i have spark at the high tension lead thats a good idea ,

(sorry i can't do the quote thing)

was it still from the same side that didn't get spark or was it the opposite side that lost its spark

rotor button cracked?

and both coils have the leads in the same direction as the engine turns?

Hi John,

In our own plane we use Bose headsets and they are great, but I also have a set of rec flying headsets that I use when flying other peoples planes when I am servicing them or ferrying them around and they are a good tough headsdet that are comfortable enough to use for a few hours of flying at a time and won,t break the bank
