    And the plane flew perfectly

    I like flying unusual a/c. The last one flew backwards-they had to turn the seat around:rotary:
  3. Sapphire
    Find out how high above the strip your head is in the a/c, then plant yourself at the end of the strip on a ladder if needed and memorize that attitude. Havn't tried it but best done when the runway is inactive and no one else around.

    It looks like a Sapphire, except someone accidentally put on two tail sections- and it just caught on:yelrotflmao:

    I always thought the Jabiru is a great a/c......if you take away the Jabiru engine

    Every time I open up this forum there is report of some incident/accident on the home page. Some involve pilots running out of fuel for insane reasons, another the pilot was stalled on short final and claimed a down draft forced him into the ground-wind speed about 6kts, or bouncing back into the air after a fast landing and spinning in from 100feet. We preflight the a/c but do we preflight ourselves? Having a license is supposed to say that you can at least safely take off, fly straight and level, climb, turn,decend, fly a circuit and land without getting lost. I have not gone flying because I could not pass the preflight-usually because I had a rageing cold or could not properly flight plan.

    [quote="seb7701, post: 250149, member: 219 Not sure what else could be shaved off. I think we are going to encourage a new generation of pilots with bald heads and weighing 30kg after massive dieting.

    Has a stall speed of 45kts and 130kts max which is not all that fast with 125 hp. Probably could lic it RAA as a single seater till they raise the mtow again. If you are the first one to register you may have lots of work. Engine is 12 years old and may leak a lot.

    Think that was built down the road from me. The Eagle company moved and then went out of business years ago.

    Just as well the local butcher didn't put his hand up. Saw a game show and the host make some sexual joke to the good looking female contestant. Her face lit up and said yes. He spent the next half minute in front cameras and audience explaining it was only a joke. No more jokes like that from him.

    And I thought those were the requirements just to fly an ultralight
  12. Sapphire
    At least cheer Grimaldi up.

    Next the Chinese will be coming out of cloak in front of the White House.

    I am working on the concept of supertankers roaming the skies filling up ultralights midair so their pilots can get more flying in.

    6. Some people spend half their life on forums.
  16. Sapphire
    Just as well a plumber didn't arrive instead.

    17. Round engines can have 14 or more pistons pumping away. If you can beat that then you are superman.
  18. Sapphire
    Probably told not to laugh at his own jokes.
  19. Sapphire
    Volunteers can be "arranged".

    Actually saw a Dick Smith truck in Sydney years ago. In big letters on the side read "Electronic Dick" At the time he probably didnt realize someone would make one for an "anatomically correct" robot. Now somebody needs to make one for an "anatomically correct" robotte:tongue in cheek:
  21. Sapphire
    That's pretty deep:dizzy: I thought you were talking about flying-no dirty thoughts from me.
  22. Sapphire
    Let me guess-your name is Dick Smith
  23. Sapphire
    We're not getting religous are we?
  24. Sapphire
    It won't be his sanity.

    The egg couldn't come first because it need a chicken to lay it. The chicken can't come first because it had to hatch from an egg. Neither came first.
