Hi Frosty....thank you for that. Im not up with all the terms here so can you humour me and explain what a "ground plain" aerial is? Scotty

Hi Bill...yes I have read that and was looking more for a brand that has worked well for anyone. My aircraft being mostly wood I hope will not be as prone as what these subjects were. Scotty

Hi all...just a question...I have a Vertex Standard 220 and am wanting to utilise it in an aircraft. Is there any great advantage in mounting an aerial to the airframe? Will it improve range and if so what aerial should I be looking at? Scotty i_dunno

I went in 2000 and 2002. magnificent! ...but I do believe it has been taken over by bean counters and the quality of the show is not what it use to be. Please tell me I am wrong when you get back. That part of the country is fantastic. Take warm clothes as there was snow on them there hills. Show is at the Airport with great displays of tractors, military and everything else mechanical. I can still hear the rumbling of all those Polikarpov flying over head! If I recall Cromwell is only about a half hour drive to Wanaka and Queenstown around an hour. I love Queenstown. Lunch at the Irish Pub looking over the lake! I use to sit there and ponder as to why no one had set up a float plane scenic company off that lake. Other than low cloud would be perfect. Wish I was going... Scotty :thumb_up:

Im going to Natfly...Im going to Natfly..... :thumb_up:

This is probably the least of any ones worries right now but is there a wireless network available at the Airport so we can get on the net? Scotty i_dunno

The Pietenpol wont get me there yet Pete...

Hi all...anyone going to Natfly at Temora from the Tamworth area? Scotty i_dunno

Something like this :: Uniden Australia ::

Hi Peter....thank you! No I didnt see it but am familiar now! Scotty

Hi all...I am researching Carbies for my Corvair conversion and have stumbled across the AeroConversions AeroCarb. Has anyone installed one of these and has any feedback? Regards Scotty :thumb_up:

Why would he want to wreck the moment by getting in the tub!

Hi John...have PM you. My website is Scottys Pietenpol Air Camper Build Scotty :thumb_up:

Hi Ian...yes I looked at their site and the spruce is double the price. Scotty

Thanks Riley...will send him an email. I had seen he was an agent before but usually they wait till they have a number of orders before sending them. Will find out for sure. Scotty

Hi all......starting a Pietenpol Air Camper build with a Chevrolet Corvair conversion. I have the Corvair block here now and the plans are on the way. Can someone who has used the T88 Adhesive let me know if it has a use by time once opened? I am ordering it from the USA as I have not heard of a supplier here and want to order a reasonable amount but not if it goes off after opened. I know I have asked this question previously but does anyone have any contacts for Spruce here in Australia? I have a quote to get it from Aircraft Spruce in the USA but just want to exhaust all options here first. Scotty :thumb_up:

Hi Bluey...look up Bushpilot.

Hi Haydn....I was attending the Sidecar Speedway championships over the New year period. This was going back about 16 years ago when I was young and silly and hanging off the side of motor bikes seemed like a good idea! Stayed at the caravan park on the beach there at Gisbourne. Scotty :thumb_up:

Hi Haydn....fellow Kiwi here from Upper Hutt now living in Tamworth which is not far from you Guy! Your right, damn hot at the moment! I remember Gisbourne being early 30's when there a few years back! Scotty :thumb_up:

If it runs for a while then stalls, is it a flooding problem? How long does it run for? What colour are the plugs? Is the fuel pump not producing enough pressure? If it has been sitting for a few years the pump may have packed it in? i_dunno Scotty

Hi Guys...I am the Treasurer of the New South Wales Scale Aircraft Society. Have a browse through our web site. There are a few nice pics. NSWSAS Home Scotty :thumb_up:
