When the app is open it is by default using the ipad GPS so the blue bar at the top is a warning to let you know the the app. Thats the way the app/platform works and is really a safety feature in a way. Close the app when not in use.

I had a look at the strip only a few months ago. I got to walk about 150mtrs of the Southern end and there were clumps of grass plants high and solid enough to give concern for damaging under carriage of a 172. Maybe in a STOL with large soft tyres would be ok. It is a long strip of 900 mtrs so what the rest of it looked like I am not sure.

Where is the prop? None I can see.

Made 1 from the ozrunways instructions. Works well. Only thing to add here would be forget the wifi dongle from the parts list as the latest Pi comes with wifi onboard.

Nice! What an awesome machine. How long to convert from float to wheel and what's involved?

The Aerosol cans work well. The reason some people have balance issues with them is that they dont rotate the tyre and the goo settles on the bottom. Taxi around slowly for a minute after putting half a can in. Stop, put the rest of the can in, then taxi around slowly a minute again. This step is essential to not only spread the goo evenly, but more importantly, ensure the goo gets into the area that needs repairing. All fixed - no heavy jack required.

Agreed, it as an entertaining way to highlight some crucial lesson about fun and safety. Well done CASA

Wow. Clearly a subject of high interest. 111 comments in 9 days.

I will be there,.. with bells on! Looking forward to it and am flying in Friday morning on commercial from Brisbane.

Dont know where you are shopping duty free but it is obviously in the wrong place. I travel allot of international and a majority of duty free is most definitely cheaper than normal retail. I always price check and 8 out of 10 times is is either a little or alot cheaper.

Admirable progress todate and the detailed step by step videos take you on the journey. Impressive amount of deposits todate. What I like about this is that in the end he is going to make the plans 'open source' to accelerate innovation and design updates. Peter Muller – Medium

Thanks and I see that in the original post. Strange then that the heading when I view this event shows a different date. Must be a browser/internet/user error.

18th December is tomorrow? Was this held last weekend?

Beautiful and the location of the painted hills a 'guarded secret' - SA LIFE - Lake Eyre and the Painted Hills Here is the location - Anna Creek Painted Hills | Anna Creek Things to Do but I can not see anything at this location on Google Map Satellite view that looks like the painted hills in the video above.

From Brisbane to Birdsville via South Australia???? Ok, you go that way, I'll go a little more direct thanks.
