And that's because the design engineers of the manufacturer know what the issues are with THAT engine design whether deliberately in their design or by issues in the manufacturing process that can be solved by a special blend of oil, and that's why you refer to the manufacturer of the engine and use what the manufacturer specifies. As an example, if the manufacturer is specifying a specific oil or a specific oil change interval, and you decide to follow what someone you've never met says on social media, you could halve the life of your engine or worse.

You had your opportunity and stood him up.

That's exactly what Brent was saying.

Yet it's on display here.

......soon the QUF membership blossomed from five to 8,000. It was even rumoured (by a QUF official who remains anonymous because he is not allowed to speak on the record having been involved in one of the 35 attempted AUF coups, that bull (the model for parts of the Forest Gump movie) had beached his prawn trawler and headed for Queensland. Soon there were home made planes falling out of the sky from Cooktown [Cappy ref] to Eulo and the QUD breathed a sigh of relief; they were "free" as one new member from NSW said. Epaulette, who had taught many AUF members was outraged at the return to the dark ages and, throwing political caution to the winds, ripped into the hierarchy like Caesar at a BBQ. "If they don't do their W&B they'll die!" Epaulette said using his favourite word which has driven thousands of students into compliance. "I don't give a ............................................." Dear Readers, Turbo was sorry to read the said news too, particularly since he had set up a sister company in Phuc Tay Province which mirrored that of Madam Truong's. His was the Phat Vanh Thin Holdings Group (PVTH) so he was in trouble too. At the NatFly conference they'd had a private session where they discussed strategy to handle the situation. Not many people know that when he was just 13 Turbo was thrown out on the street, and picked up by the Painters & Dockers Union who used to feed him food scraps but promised him real money and a Valiant Charger for certain services. It might help to remind AUF members that compared to the Underbelly 13 executions, the Painters & Dockers through their young apprentice accounted for 42 with the old 12 gauge from over the office door. Of course the Painters and Dockers had long been disbanded but they all carried, on a part of their bodies that rarely saw the light the initials RBNF (Retired But Not Forgotten) and Turbo had been called in many times for "services" . Now they were about to regroup, head for Vietnam and return the favour.

I was responsible for over 1,000 lives in a high risk sport. Nothing to do with the Yanks, our Precedent is Scottish 1932. Read the cases. Not correct; the principles are easy to understand, which is why I posted the cases. What you base your responsibility on is up to you.

PL Cases originally where being sued, and after I got smart and started to read cases, from the outcomes. I already mentioned we have cases you can read on this site, and see for yourself that what you just posted is not really relative to your advice when it comes to PL. If you read the cases you can see for yourself. These days its your advice, your problem.

This applies in GA with reliable engines for ferry purposes. RA is founded on the acceptance that engine failures will be a common occurrance. We have a thread on Public Liability with real cases shown.

Public liability issue from that advice.

The Regulations are State Regulations (as agains a common Commonwealth Regulation) so you need to check the States you are travelling to/in. That doesn't mean they won't be identical or almost identical, but you only have to do the checks once. In GA Flying where cross country flying is part of flying there isn't an issue because (a) you have about 6 hours range on board and (b) for most trips there will be several suppiers at the airport en route with the correct fuel and with earth clamps. RA was intended for local flying, and people have stretched the boundaries without really thinking it through, using all sorts of solutions including dangerous containers, and dangerous refuelling and transport procedures. The baggage trolly above is a good solution for walking distance provided the container is designed for fuel. When you read the regulations there are also possibilities for transporting it, just not in the boot of a car. For example it's illegal to refuel the portable tanks that sit on the floor or a boat with an outboard motor. That's because as the nozzle is pouring the fuel in, vapour is being created and is leaking out of the tank filler; on a hot day you can see it; you can certainly smell it. It's heavier than air so it flows down over the side of the tank and settles on the floor of the boat. When the vapour reaches 1.3% of the surrounding atmosphere it becomes explosive. That's why you read about several boat fires every year. That's why taxis won't carry your jerry can in the boot of a car - there's no escape for the vapour. A ute is a different story; the jerry can can be tied to cargo ties and utes have a slot at the tailgate to let heavier than air capours out. You only need to go with your jerry can to the local pub where on weekends there may be 20 utes lined up and hold up a ten dollar bill. KR's on the money about the crossover point for DG, but do your State checking so you are safe rather than just pick up any BS on SM.

Research the NSW regulations for transporting fuel; that will put you on the safe track.

.........Why Cessna 172s are so expensive, what sun cream is the best for flying, are Boings any good to fly in, where you can get a replacement plug for a hole in the instrument panel of a Cessna 208, how many V Tail Bonanzas were built and what were their serial numbers and stuff. All of this was hard going for the friend who was not the sharpest tool in the drawer on the big stuff; but on the other hand his Quicksilver was known around the world for its precision build, and colour scheme designed to scare off thieves and roos. He was so meticulous that he not only put rubber plugs in the exhaust pipes after shut down, but wheeled the QS over to the milking shed and gave it 10 minutes in a bay to suck out any dust or spiders before startup. He was also meticulous in ...........................

So from what you've said (a) RAA is bad because they couldn't tell you if fuel is available to suit you. (b) You're going. I guess you'll sort it out. We had a series of threads on safe fuels where we weeded out the specifications, the motherhood statements that had seen people lose their engines, and the Australian fuels and grades suitable for aircraft use and how to manage them with their short time-expiry. Most of this thread has gone off the track again, so I'd recommend owners to search for the detailed material.

If you’re not going why did you raise it? iOR has a stand there. Anyone flying in who is flying in can call IOR and check the fuel available and price. I can guarantee there won’t be any Mogas there. That’s a US blend of fuel.

Do you really want me to phone IOR?

Did you see what I just posted? Do you think he would set up a stand, but then pass up the opportunity to be front and central at the show for all visitors and rec flyers from his region?

I noticed this link www.flynforfun.aero Exhibitors ASRA Australian Sport Rotorcraft Association Ozrunways Bose ATEC Tecnam Rotax Jabiru Foxbat Avplan Garmin IOR Aviation Australian Sport Pilot The IOR Aviation story says" “IOR Aviation draws from IOR’s foundation knowledge of fuel handling, distribution, and fuel management technology.

Mini Tankers may not service the Parkes area, but if they do you can fuel a tractor, generator, pump etc.\ The other truck is a typical local distributor for a district. The farm delivery truck usually carry about 6000 litres of fuel (4x2) or 16,000 litres 6x4 and depending on the district may have one or two bulkheads to separate the fuel types including ULP. They are usually out on farm rounds every day and will call in to drop of one 20 litre drum of lubricating oil or fill one tractor. In the cropping or cotton area the configuration can be 8x4 with a 4 axle dog trailer. The 4x2 or 6x4 would be making a stop at the airfield for a short time, just as he would for a tractor.

OK scratch that one then; they can find their own ULP, why would we bother organising the event?
