    Sauer and Limbach do some European certified VW based engines. I think the chocolate(?) blimp that used to run around Melbourne a few years ago had Limbachs. There are lots of auto engine based non-certified engines. Raptor: an accident looking for a place to happen I think. Way too many half-assed fixes on the run, and mostly in the flight controls. I find it very difficult to watch his progress, absolutely messed up "Americanized" Aussie accents turn me right off.

    Have a prowl around on www.geotyres.com.au Also the KENDA range

    Or for the facts, you could just read up what AIP says on the topic. Way too much crap is read back these days because someone starts doing it and everyone else joins in.

    We check ours tail down and horizontal often and do find a notable difference. (Same planes, Captain Speaking, you know where.....) Horizontal full oil = at top mark. Tail down full oil = half way between the marks. Nothing much in oil catch bottle after 25 hours. Maybe 100ml, if that.

    To clarify for Peter, You can fly your plane on your RAAus RPC at Camden when the tower is not active, and when the tower is activated, you must also hold PPL/Medical. As a PPL holder (only) - I can't operate your 24 registered plane. As a PPL holder, you can't even operate your plane. You operate it via your RAAus RPC. 24 reg planes can only be flown by RAAus members. Wait, what??????????????????? Everyone sufficiently confused yet?

    What was the instrument used to obtain those low pressure readings? A seven times dropped thing from K-Mart, or something known to be accurate?

    Don't confuse and link class D zones and closely settled areas - they are two completely different things. Examples of D with no closely settled areas surrounding: Avalon, Tamworth. Probably a zillion others. Well, a few.

    Lemme see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_Airforce_Service_Pilots Janine Shepherd (go read the book Never Tell Me Never)

    After hours, not only is it "not really Class D", it's "not class D" so fill yer boots and fly, nobody can stop you. Crazy that at 5:59pm with ATC you cannot freely fly (non instructional), but at 6:01pm with no ATC, you can. It's just plain stupid. Class D, and "not class D" do not require a transponder. (see AIP).

    And for flying schools, via CASA Exemption CASA EX86/19. And the medical requirement remains (it says).

    Time for another clue? Canadian design. (bonus clue - I have a set of the plans about one meter away)
  22. 440032
    You're welcome Peter. I was out your way polluting your airspace. Was very busy at the airbase.

    Time for a clue? Plans built.

    Well, the gear legs are, as far as I know, by the same guy that makes them for Vans.
