Depending on your perspextive these puns are crazing. I can see through the cracks in them but only just and frankly they only serve to diffuse highlights of this terrific thread.

My thoughts and best wishes go to everyone who has lost with this deal at CAMit. There are no winners here. I have dealt with staff from the office, floor and have spoken with Ian direct on several occasions. Without exception I found them to be helpful, professional and patient and I am so sorry for the loss of this dedicated team who gave the CAMit factory life, this extends to their families. Beyond this I am lost for words except to add that I am sure my sentiment is shared across many horizons. If you know a member of that team personally please extend a shared thanks and a sincere best wish for their future.

This is a promotion put together by he HGFA.

Does't matter how we do it as long as we do!

I already really miss the 21 days recent posts tag (now 14 days) being on the side.

Have spoken to Bob about a Jabiru/Camit variant of this and he will be in touch. Lifetime warranty on the product and according to Bob "highly effective".

A hangar is my ultimate man cave. There are people who love to talk about aircraft at hangars. It is a lie to tell her (or him) "I'm only going out for an hour/couple of hours/until lunchtime". When we can we hang around them all day, we can't help ourselves, we love it. This applies even if you don't own an aircraft or fly or live in the same town as the hangar. They are called them hangars because we are suppose to hang around them!

This site needs a funny but naughty sticker. I would stick that on your post flying dog.

My wife and I have an arrangement that works well, I don't ask how much her hair doos cost and she doesn't ask about how much I spend on flying. Luckily no spreadsheet required. For the most part it has to cost what it costs.

Go for it Bruce, tinker away. You love this sort of thing and are pretty good at it as your temp monitors demonstrated. We all love different aspects of recreational flying and I am already looking forward to watching your progress and results whatever they may be.

Admission of bias but BROKEN HILL is outstanding. It is centrally located, affordable, friendly and home! It takes exactly the same time to get to every place in Australia only dependent on how fast you are going. What is weather ?

Bruce and Trevor electrical testing all new kit.

Lightwing GR 912 25-698 update from the Silver City. Today - wings are close to being ready and are very shiny, electrics tested only some minor issues with the uhf, sanding and tidying up completed almost ready for engine and paint. Getting closer ! I just love aeroplanes !

Jabirus are still flying across this great country despite having endured what some have called a war. As resilient as the emu and a much better flyer !

All about choices ! Or not ?

I had no idea what a flying flea was until now. Some flying fleas from google.

A CS2 built and flown in 1938. Now standing under a DC3 in the Adelaide Aviation Museum. Located in Port Adelaide, the museum is half a block from the SA Railway Museum which is half a block from the SA Maritime Museum. A really good day out.

Gawler home to the Silver City ...... still no assistance from the navigator!

Clues - maximum take off weight 174 kg and an 8 hp engine

Lightwing GR 912 25 698 - Instruments being installed, the guys are doing a very thorough and tidy job. A classic Aussie machine and I can't wait to have a fly. I've been doing the preparation for paint and boy you get to know every wart. Paint then engine .... stay tuned!

We were sent this picture found on the internet of the aircraft when she was younger and had clothes on !

If this is correct and it it widespread among insurance companies generally - it will make the CASA intervention look like a product promotion.

I've had a fantastic long weekend of flying. Had a great time at the Wentworth fly-in, did my bfr with Cliff Banks who was at Wentworth for the weekend and then out to Menindee for lunch at the pub today. Took this picture on the way home to Broken Hill, those familiar with the normally red landscape will appreciate the flush of green which is now prominent through far west NSW. The outback is centrally located for ease of access -come and check it out yourself !

I have a Petroni Propeller on my Jabiru. Operating from mostly dirt strips and would like to reduce the constant little touch ups. Heard about 3m propeller tape and have sound advice to only run it half an inch over the leading edge so performance isn't impacted. Interested to hear about other experiences using this tape when using strips which are unkind to props. Any photos of application and Australian suppliers would be helpful.

Anjum I enjoy your posts. Opinions are like ......... well you know. Stick with it.

Pre flight this morning at Innaminka ready for a sunrise flight to Stephens Creek just out of Broken Hill. Others in the group continued home to Wentworth and Mildura ending a 3 day run via White Cliffs - Thargomindah - Innaminka. Watched the sunrise and moon set both at the same time from 6500ft all with a 30 knot tailwind.

Sunshine with a good morning kiss for the Strzelecki Desert sand dunes.

Lunch at Stephens Creek with the Silver City Recreational Aircraft Club.

Hope nobody minds that I would like to share my experience I have had dealing with this Aussie business based in Victoria. I have a Punkin Head Cover for my Jabiru 430 which is hard wearing and very well made. I have had a very good experience dealing with this Australian business. They make heaps of covers and accessories for many aircraft types including GA and microlights. I have no interest in the business except my dealings with them purchasing and using their product. Did I mention the fact they are Australian....of course I did!
