Try out back fuel planning search on this site member JG3.

JG3 on this site would be a big help to you on this subject

I have the d/c 10-13.4s and I’ll keep them for pax as they still do the job. Worked well in the Lightwing I had but the Hornet Cub I have now the mic is activating the intercom from engine/ airframe noise when over 5000 rpm ( 912(uls). The intercom which is built into the Icom a220 vhf and I’ve tried all the different settings (mic gain/squelch ect) to no avail and tried the Bose A20 also and same result and that’s why I’m looking at the Zulu 3 with the different mic set up as I still need another headset. I know jack $h/t about avionics so hoping one you tech gurus maybe able to help.

Thanks Mate will try and get in and show you the new plane and try your headsets. Was that you that paid me a visit at our new block a few weeks ago?

Thanks for the reply Roscoe. I’ve been tossing up between the L/S 3 and the Bose A20 b/t but the L/S 3 seem better value. I have flown with the Bose but not the Lightspeed.

Looking at updating my headsets to the Lightspeed Zulu 3 and was wondering if anyone has a set and their opinion on them?

Looking forward to read (and photos) about your last adventure on your site JG.

Sorry you have lost a mate Frank and no doubt a hard time for all involved. Regards Clayt.

That was supposed to be donk in it . Clayt.

Imagine 8367 with that Doncaster in it . Clayt

Doug Evans (on this forum)has a 55-GA912 so he maybe able to help. As for draining the oil have you tried releasing the rudder pedal springs and laying the pedals flat on the floor.Clayt

G'day Peter, I got one hose from Repco and the other from a Mackay rubber catalogue (360 pages to find the right one). I wrote the numbers down in the maintenance log but the aircraft has been sold. I just took the hoses with me to town and got the right bends ect and cut them to length. I have not seen one Lightwing Rotax installation the exactly the same so it is not as easy as just ordering one off the shelf. Regards Clayt.

. I can relate to that one Planedriver,about 27 years ago I was in a mustering (cattle) camp 150 km NW of Camooweal and while lying in my swag at about 8.30pm (NT time) looking into the west I could see this light dancing around on the horizon and my first thought was its a minmin light but I kept it to myself (in case I had a touch of the sun) but the same time the next night there it was again.This went on for about 3 nights until I pointed it out to the mustering pilot and he studied it for a bit and advised me it was the evenings star (I felt a fool). It's amazing the optical illusion it gives on the Barkley Tableland horizon at nighttime with a slight breeze blowing. I didn't get a cent either. CV.

It's great to see on this site that someone knows what an adze is and what it is used for!

Is it an 80 or 100 hp?

How does she perform Doug?

Yes Doug, missing it already but it's going to a good home and will get to fly her again and mate your new tires look awesome ,let us know how they go.

SOLD. It was a bit hard to watch my LW fly over the horizon this morning ,it's heading to Bairnsdale on the south coast of Victoria.
