sell to your neighbours when its good, buy when its bad. get a job when your not farming

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

Don't let her back in the car then. Problem solved.

I agree...I use the mini now in a airgizmo dash mount

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

Down the bottom click upload a file, choose file etc. as long as the image is not too big it should work

You guys , along with Pylon and other designer/builder/innovators are truly awesome

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.

It's not my job to fix ignorance. You have to do that yourselves.

As we thought... you "think".... as in you don't know...and you have been sprouting off your ignorance based upon that. And you people reckon Muslims are the problem???!!!! Wow!!!

Bruce, I'm happy to have a discussion. But a discussion doesn't involve you cherry picking questions to direct at me and demanding yes or no answers. Who you think you are?

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.

Bit off topic, but why is there not a report?

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

It's about clearances to enter and leave airspace, accurate tracking, navigation and height keeping and position reporting with proper radio procedures. . CTA is often over country you shouldn't be flying over . Just get through it, when it's in your way and fly OCTA and be more relaxed and keep a good look outside. Nev

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.

That would be built up areas, not CTA.No access to CTA means you fly over the primary school at 2500' instead of 4500'.

This gave me a good laugh. At YRED when landing on 07, you are basically flying into a school on the base leg!!

How come I'm not allowed a heart attack in CTA but its ok elsewhere?Stupid fools

In CTA your'e closer to help and assistance than anywhere else.

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

Good effort by another 'senior' pilot . The extra 20 knots with the 230 certainly makes a difference .... Bob

but I'm not sure how to pm you,

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.'
