You may have been raised, but in my days we were razed. Ouch.

You had days ...we could only afford minutes

 

 

Jeez, I can't even drive one of them in a straight line in the supermarket, would hate to try at highway speeds!

You could try going to the supermarket when you're sober, for a change.......

 

What makes me laugh the most is those that tatt their kids name and birthdate. What does that mean?Are they too dopey to remember their kids name and birthday?

A guy that worked for me a while back, had the name of his first child around the band of a kings crown tattooed on his shoulder. When he announced his partner was pregnant again I asked what he was going to do for this one, given there can only be one king. A little while after the baby was born he turned up with the second ones name in huge letters down his forearm. A little while after that he discovered, he wasn't the real father.......

 

 

Nice setup but that pump is well over $500 aloneLocal aviation fuels man says he can buy new Avgas drums empty pretty cheap, mount 4 onto a steel skid and strap into position.

Pretty sure it is legal to fill them at fuel depot - not service station. I think its OK to transport 4 x 200l in trailer or ute too.

Nice work SDQDI

Given that it is easily lift able on those forks, does it really need the pump?

 

I like to filter my fuel last thing before it gets into the tank (mr funnel) , no risk then of wasps or other impurities getting into the hose or nozzle.

 

 

Skeptic36: Thanks for the lead. I've emailed the Ecan Man for details of his pump ie max lift capability, hand pumps to transfer 20 litres etc.

Matt,

Unless you are prepared to elevate the container or pressurise it, then don't bother with it. The pump idea is only designed to start the thing siphoning. I think it would work well for refuelling a boat at a jetty.

 

My original plan was to pressurise it, but the cap has a valve in it to allow air in while it is emptying, so there is no room to fit an air inlet there, which meant that I would have to drill the container, so I got cold feet on the idea given it cost over $200. What I am doing now, works really well although it appears I will have to put a pole in 9meters from my hangar and move the winch/ pulley set up there, if I want to be legal.

 

 

I bought one of these :http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/DURAMAX-53ltr-Portable-Fuel-Container-flo-n-go-Jerry-Can-NEW-/111719559644?hash=item1a030131dc:m:mBdB1gnZVG4fqmvuTE6LEjA

 

I have a boat winch and pulley set up in my hangar, which I use to winch it up high.

 

It has a convenient bolt in the centre holding the hose hangar on which I am able to connect my earth wire to.

 

I also use a hanging scale so that I can accurately check fuel burn.

 

Another handy thing I have found, is it lays horizontal for filling which is ideal for draining stale fuel from the aircraft.

 

Before you burn me at the stake the hangar is my own, and it only contains my aircraft

 

 

 

 

 

If the 2006 panties are that tidgy, I think it's time they showed us a 2016 pair...

Given that global warming has been shown to be a crock of ....., so much so, that the science fraternity had to change the name to climate change in order to continue extracting a living from said crock.

I think that if you start back along the cloths line, 1990 could also be 2016

 

 

 

 

Just had a look at the cicare 8, and this is what they say about the engine:

 

Based on the ROTAX 900 series, with improved performance and features, the EPA POWER 917 is a block of ROTAX engine with dual injection and carbon fiber components, which ensure a reliable and safe flight.

 

 

Good genetic breeding material Nev

So, your having a go at my jeans now. Geez you guys never let up......

 

 

UOTE="Deskpilot, post: 521004, member: 64"]maybe I was better looking than you

 

I doubt that, I've been told, that I'm very handsome

 

 

 

Ask a, say nineteen year old about his/first experience

Geez, I didn't have one 'till I was 25

When I was 19, it was like

 

 

When I was 22, I tried again

 

 

Finally, when I was 25 it was

Just looked at it again, and the site software took out everything except the f word

 

 

Err what ever happened to the no swearing policy ?

Yeah sorry about that, I just pasted that in thinking the site software would fix it:bash:

Now It's too late to edit it:sorry:

 

 

I first met him in the classroom

 

back in 1963

 

we seemed to hit it off pretty good

 

we were mates mick and me

 

he wasn't such a big kid

 

even back then at the start

 

and he wasn't all that clever either

 

but Jesus he could fart

 

I first found that out in class one day

 

when things were going pretty slow

 

and just to keep us all amused

 

Mick let this fucking ripper go

 

well, you should have been there

 

look, i'd describe it if i could

 

but i just turned around and i said,

 

"Hey Mick your fucking good!"

 

And at the eng of school Grand Final

 

on the rugby field that time

 

we were getting beaten

 

they were 12 and we were 9

 

and play was 3 yards from our goal-line

 

when the referee called a scrum

 

and mick said, "Don't worry fellas,

 

we've as good as got it won."

 

So we just locked ourselves down in the scrum,

 

and we held eachothers nose

 

and mick our little hooker

 

he let this fucking ripper go!

 

well, it stung their nose

 

and it burnt their eyes

 

and it even scorched the grass

 

and i twigged right then and there,

 

he had a double jointed arse!

 

chorous

 

Mick, me mate the master farter

 

put the art back into farting

 

with his custom tailored farts

 

Mick, me mate the master farter

 

broke new ground in breaking wind

 

with his double jointed arse

 

verse 2

 

And it was just a couple of years later

 

we both went to seee Kamaahl

 

it was a really poshy sort of show

 

in this great big bloody hall

 

all the blokes were dressed like penguins,

 

well you should have seen the sorts

 

and Kamaahl himself wore a sheilas dress,

 

like a bloody black boy george

 

we were all locked in there like sardines,

 

for the show to get underway

 

but the tuber player didn't log

 

he'd booked off crook that day

 

and Kamaahl said, "Without a tuber player i cannot commence the show."

 

so old mick jumps up says,

 

"Sambo mate, I'll have a fucking go!"

 

Well, from then on in I honestly thought,

 

that the whole show would be ruined

 

but he just winked at me and picked that tuber up

 

just like he knew what he was doing

 

then the maestro tapped his little stick,

 

to tell the band to start

 

and mick just shut his eyes and cocked

 

his leg,

 

and then began to fart!

 

well you could have heard a pin drop

 

that night there in the hall

 

and it's hard to say who sounded best

 

Mick farting or Kamaahl

 

then the audience just went apeshit

 

they cheered and clapped and stood

 

and Kamaahl smiled as if to say,

 

"Hey Mick, your fucking good

 

chorous

 

Mick me mate the master farter

 

put the art back into farting

 

with his custom tailored farts

 

Mick me mate the master farter

 

with his True-pitch perfect, calibrated

 

double jointed arse

 

verse 3

 

Well, good news travels fast it seems

 

and it wasn't very long

 

before Mick got this midnight phonecall

 

from Ben Lexan and Alan Bond

 

they said, "Mick we've got this specialist job,

 

and we're prepared to pay ya',

 

Mick old son would you consider farting for Australia?"

 

We'll just prop you on our brand new yatch,

 

when theres no sea-breeze blowing

 

and get Mick the master farter to start

 

her and keep the bastard going

 

so Mick went into training

 

on sausage rolls and pies

 

and Vegemite and Fosters beer

 

and a schollarship from Heinz

 

The world had never seen before

 

a yatch so finely groomed

 

or a crew so fit and young and strong

 

or an arse so finely tuned

 

the Yanks weren't even in the race

 

not even in the same class

 

what with Ben Lexan and his secret keel

 

and Micks fuel injeted arse

 

Well he come back a bloody hero didn't he,

 

the old Australian boy

 

and government comissioned this bloke

 

to do a big statue of his Koy

 

and I can still see Mick standing there

 

when they confirmed his Knighthood

 

and Bob Hawke pinning it on saying,

 

"Hey mick..... your fucking good!"

 

chorous

 

Mick me mate the master farter

 

put the class back into farting

 

with his designer-lable farts

 

Mick me mate the master farted

 

with his True-pitch perfect calibrated,

 

turbo thrusted, fuel injected, W.I.N.G.S.proteced, double jointed arse.

 

 

For Ftf's, there is also the unquantifiable cost of down time. If you took Motzart Merv's recent experience, that cost would be massive

If you use the search function up in the top right corner, you can even find some aviation stuff.......

 

Seriously,

 

It will be good to have another trike pilot around:cheers:

 

 

And why shouldn't I make fun of somebody who says the earth is flat?

Because this thread is about bureaurocratic bullying and over regulation.....

You were a Bond girl??

That was before the operation.......

 

 

Pfft, I saw these years ago in a James Bond movie!

OK I'll bite... what's the pot of glue got to do with it?

I thought you'd get stuck on that

 

 

Q) What's the difference between a piano, a tuna and a pot of glue?

 

A) you can tuna piano, but you can't piano a tuna:oh yeah:
