    Sounds like milked or raped.Caught between a rock and a hard place Do you keep getting milked or go to another school and see if they start you over again basically from scratch

    Did he steer for the motorway to maximise his chances of pulling out of the loop once he realised he maybe in trouble Poor fella didn’t intentionally go out and say I’m going to kill 11 people today Just an error of judgment, I think if he crashed on the airfield and killed 11 no charges would have been laid as spectators are informed of the risks and usually enter at their own risk

    Foxbat is a great aircraft My only complaint was the seating position Did not like it at all and find it very uncomfortable after a couple of hours for me

    I was 23 when I first started flying but was only 21 hours in to GA when we had the recession we had to have in 1987 2 kids, mortgage something had to give Took it back up at 40 in 2004 and been hammering it since

    He was relying on his state of the art crumple zones and 7 airbags, he should have done like his parents should have done years earlier “pulled out while you had the chance”

    Gosh with the amount of SB’s and AD’ out on the 912iS it will be 20 years before I looked at one, and by that time it will cost 80K probably and we’ll out of my realms of reality. I’ll just stick with the carburettor model I currently run Electronics are great when they are all working in conjunction with each other but when one decides not to play it can play havoc like I have seen on a number of iS engines so far

    Di from Punkinhead Airsport sells a great leather boom mike cover, used it on the Trikes when I was flying them and cut all the wind noise out

    42 eh Gravity, I better put my coat on as it will be a bit chilly compared to the 47 deg days up here in the Cooper Basin lol 42 is very warm actually and not nice to fly in
  21. alf jessup
    Great stuff Nightmare getting back in to it Must have been a nightmare breaking your arm and not being able to fly
  22. alf jessup
    It’s a chemtrail speed and sighting spreader Awesome..........lol
  23. alf jessup
    True Frank But remember plenty of people fly knowing full well their engine is going to keep going and never fail
  24. alf jessup
    Nothing like a bit of Avporn to get the juices flowing in the mouth

    Your spot on Frank, My take on it is in the 2 seconds of WTF is happening was enough to dissipate the airspeed and as per human nature pull back on the stick cause the grounds coming up at me Hard to do to push it over when the grounds coming at you I think a thorough brief on EFATO could save the day as it is fresh in your mind prior to take off Engine fails push forward and maintain airspeed I say it out loud every time I take off as do I full power is attained, airspeed is alive & T’s & P’s are ok Sad fact is until it happens you never really know how you will react, the WTF moment can catch you out Alf
