    GOT IT first thing this morning. Did the online yesterday, about an hour. Did the quiz last night, about 45 mins. Applied this morning and got it inside about 20 mins. The system actually works quite well.

    $1500 for entering the circuit area without approval. Good luck collecting that from VICPOL, air ambulance, and me! Will they charge BIRDS?? Does anyone recall not so long ago when MILDURA Airport somehow put in ERSA (was it? - or tried to?) that gliders were not allowed to fly over the airport! That soon got torn up.

    Can't find anything on accidents or investigations? There's the answer. (Not part of Part 149 organisation requirements). CASA isn't going to say ""oh, and here's a list of what you do not have to be involved with:"

    Ask CASA???? Why not just go look in Part 149 yourself? I just did, it took me one minute.

    I dread dealing with tyre kickers and assorted nupties. I had a call about mine and within thirty seconds I told them sorry, it's no longer for sale. (Bogan alert went off)

    LoonyBob mentioned Corby bebe. Me thinks the loon might have some knowledge of the Corby (and 3 others) Star Baby design (never built) which preceded the other three John Corby designs.

    VH amateur built are experimental, which the regs (various in CASR 91) apply to, specifically. RAAus amateur-built are not (by same definition/regs) experimental. I don't know what RAAus do as equiv.

    Note - that SAAA advice applies to VH registered experimental. RAAus? NFI.

    Reminds me of that video where the cat appears inside the wing root of a little ultralight not soon after take off. He was loving the ride. My black cat would have totally done that.

    Jabiru bronzine

    440032 replied to Fabio's topic in Jabiru

    A quali boccole ti riferisci Fabio? Forse le boccole di montaggio del motore in gomma? Which bushings are you referring to Fabio? The rubber engine mounting bushings perhaps? Google translate to the rescue - piece-o-p...............

    I got this the other day from a friend in USA who sold his Cherokee about a year ago for about 67K USD, and bought a little homebuilt for about 10 or 12. I had some texts with my friend X….. He says here the aviation bubble has burst… Airplane sales are grinding to a halt… He said if I was selling my Cherokee today, I could only get 50 grand for it and it would take 6 months to sell it…. People wanting to upgrade to a better airplane are not selling theirs because there are not enough planes on the market now. The broker that sold my Cherokee for me, he basically has nothing to sell now. He is selling homebuilt projects for people or at least trying to… I saw a project he was trying to sell…. Total junk if you ask me…. X has been a broker forever, very successful. Sold a lot of corporate type aircraft, heavy and light twins, fast singles,,,That was most of his business… Now he is dabbling in homebuilts, but, really mostly projects that are junk….

    Yes - that is a Type certificate, for PRIMARY category. (aircraft of simple design intended for pleasure and personal use) Note 1 of page 5 of type cert VA515 says serial numbers (airframe serial numbers) include production and kit built. Kit built, by CASR, is not the same as amateur-built, from a kit. VA515 says: "Only aircraft serial numbers manufactured in accordance with the production basis described in this data sheet are eligible for certification under this type certificate." 006 is not listed, so I would say confidently, that type certificate has nothing to do with 006. Jabiru does have very good records - maybe you could ask them what was the certification basis of 006? I suspect that 006 was not Type Certified at all, just "type accepted" or whatever it was/is called for other factory builts under CAO 95.55. And probably that's what has lead to the MARAP process to make significant changes. That's about the end of what I can throw on the pile.

    Does your aircraft have a CASA Special Certificate of Airworthiness? Is it an certificated (not "certified") as an LSA (Light Sport Aircraft)? Is it type certified? (with a CASA issued type certificate?)

    Spruce has nice visible grain, hoop pine much less so. Post some photos perhaps.

    I too find it has way too many features - I really struggle with the basics. I keep a small notebook of how-to reminders.

    https://www.oilvalve.com.au/ They are a ball valve with a locking lever.

    Look at the FUMOTO automotive drain valves online. I use these in all my cars, and have one to fit to my Jab 2200. If I'm not mistaken, the one you want is 12mm x 1.75 - but do your own checking.

    Ah, photoshop is a wonderful thing. Look up VH-gullible in the dictionary.

    There is no CTA (low level) at Bathurst. Restricted areas are not the same as CTA.
