    Your a effn' genius mate. I dunno why us farmers didn't got onto that idea years ago, we would all be millionaires by now.

    Just for intrest, I had a look at the Airgizmo dock $250 at Mendelssohn ( you get free delivery though) , so I had a look further, $125 at Airgizmos, seems a little more like it.

    Thanks Jake, I'll give that a try.

    Hi Jakej, Thanks for the reply. I doubt that could be the problem in my installation, because it is a relatively new trike and it worked fine when I got it and that part has not been touched.

    Hi all, I have an MGL V6 radio installed in my trike and I use it in conjunction with flycom integrated helmet/ headsets . All works really well except if I try to transmit with the pax headset plugged in, then it sounds like I'm talking down a pipe and is almost unreadable to other stations, if I pull the plug on the pax and then transmit, back to 5/5. While researching what could be the problem, I read that if you transmit with a poor or damaged aerial some of the power will go back to the radio and may damage it. A while ago ( when I think about it, it would be about the time this started) I had the joint in my coax come apart where the mast is connected to the wing, and I know I tried to transmit when in this condition ( I didn't know it had come apart). My questions are : Could the damage this can cause, be the reason for the symptom I have? If so, is it repairable Thanks Regards Bill

    I agree Bob. I try not to read what they've been doing, because it just makes me feel inferior

    I had the hand held icom in my first trike and it consistently recieved a 5/5 score, the panel mount in my new trike is already giving trouble although I suspect that may be settings related.

    So, you got nothing then?

    How about you enlighten us Winsor. It would be great if you would contribute something rather than stabbing the creative button alol the time.

    Why can't a discussion include a question? It's a very simple one. If you want to expand on your "yes or no" to explain your reasons you can surely do that.

    I asked the mechanics to get one done on my tractor when it kept blocking hydraulic filters. No, no nothing wrong with the tractor they say, must be your implements, I say, other tractor uses same implements and it's ok. $17000.00 later the tractor has a new brake disc and all the bits of the old one cleaned out of it. They either lied about having the oil sample tested, or oil sampling is useless

    It is unbelievable, that a person sitting in their armchair, with the aid of the one directional view of a video camera can judge that pilots actions as anything but positive.

    Because Phil is not there yet.

    I think we better send our UK correspondent Phil, :drive:up for a look:yikes: so we can get the real story.

    If you have good enough equipment to watch this with, it's pretty cool. My daughter has a Samsung note, and as you turn the phone around, it shows you the direction it moves to

    That's the skills side of the equation. I maintain, the medical is to increase the likelihood that you will be in a fit state to control your aircraft when in the vicinity of places you are likely to find lots of people or valuable assets. Many of the places quoted by P4d are there due to the skills part rather than the medical.

    Ok, I'll be a little more specific, it's about minimising the potential for damage caused by you when you have the heart attack, i.e keeping you out of heavily populated areas, areas where other aircraft carrying large amounts of passengers tend to gravitate to, you know, that sort of thing.

    It's not about you, it's about the primary school you where flying over when you had it.

    Hi all, I am doing some work to the fuel system on my trike atm and I'm surprised to find teflon tape on all the threads. These are installed at the factory. Should I use teflon or should I use Permatex Aviation Sealant, or something else? Thanks Regards Bill

    Sarah goes out one day and buys a brand new stud rooster for her chicken coop. The rooster struts over to old Butch and says, 'OK, old fart, time to retire.' Old Butch replies,' come on, you can't handle ALL these chickens. Look what it's done to me. Can't you just let me have the two old hens over in the corner?' The young rooster says, 'Beat it! You're washed up and I'm taking over.' Old Butch says 'I'll tell you what, young stud, I'll race you around the farmhouse. Whoever wins gets exclusive domain over the entire chicken coop.' The young rooster laughs, 'You know you don't stand a chance old man, so just to be fair, I'll give you a head start. 'Old Butch takes off running. About 15 seconds later the young rooster takes off after him. They round the front of the farmhouse and the young rooster has closed the gap. He's already about 5 inches behind the Butch and gaining fast. Sarah, meanwhile, is sitting on the front porch when she sees the roosters running by. She grabs up her shotgun and BOOM!, she blows the young rooster to bits. Sarah sadly shakes her head, 'Damn,...third gay rooster I bought this month.'
