  1. Lack of pressure, also.(Not pack) Yours are designed to handle water Any bit of wobble will move the discs away . Nev
  2. Best used to be 5 by 5. Scale 1 to 5. Nev
  3. Nothing pulls the Pads back. The pack of pressure should be enough for them to turn freely. Nev
  4. When Large Planes are left Parked, PINS are placed in the Undercarriage and the wheels are chocked. Nev
  5. HI-wing Cessna RG's have a lot of drag during the retract stage. It's part of Knowing THAT Plane. Normally "Gear up" is the FIRST thing you do (unless it's a very long runway). Nev
  6. Maybe Netanyahu allowed THAT to Happen . I recall the Egyptian Gov't ( Moslem Brotherhood) warning Israel that something BIG was going to Happen. It's extremely unlikely MOSSAD didn't know of it as well. 2 Officers of the IDF have been dumped Publicly over that. Nev
  7. Well it's a bit like this Oneside not declaring ( WAR but having a 3 year one) wants the Place Zelenskyy Runs and also threatens to NUKE a lot of the West (Like the UK for Instance)................and he's got this big pile of Nuclear Bombs. and {people wo only want a World that HAS them in Charge like they reckon it was after WW2 when they were GREAT. Nev
  8. Tell Pauleen Hanson that, and her voters. Nev
  9. Most gear lock down is by the "OVERCENTRE' mechanism which often uses a spring as well for the Alternate extension Free fall case.. Green means Down and locked. when you select UP the first action is to unlock the strut to allow it to fold. I know weight on it makes it harder to retract and sometimes there's a restrictor Pin in the Gear Lever like a trigger on a rifle to prevent inadvertent retraction. BEECH but the flap and gear switches next to each other????? Robbie needs to be MORE careful what HE touches when he's in a PLANE. Nev
  10. Quite a few CASA people have Landed gear up. Most Pilot's have NEVER done it. It's too Noisy, and you can't taxi. Nev
  11. They ALL have to worry about their economies ESP the USA IF there's a real war, nobody really will win IT. War is MADNESS today. Nev
  12. With a too far AFT CofG the Tailplane can/will stall and you can't get the nose down and the Plane itself then stalls and it's all over. You MIGHT Manage to stay flying IF you keep the speed High. Its THE most dangerous situation for loss of control you are likely to encounter. You get into an Unrecoverable FLAT spin. Nev
  13. They have the highest Population (with India) and need supply security to exist.. Don't forget USA in the 30's denied Japan Oil and Rubber as a move to disadvantage them. Nev
  14. MOST of them are" squeezy" side by side There's a More LIMITED vision aspect also with side by side and more drag with the wider fuselage. Balance is easier with side by side, but you should still check it anyhow. Nev
