  1. It would be better to have the datum say 500 mm forward of the spinner. At some time you might alter weights forward of the Wing LE and you avoid dealing with negative figures. Nev
  2. You ARE getting towards the REAR of the permitted range. It's NOT the best place to be. Nev
  3. That Mob GAMI in USA are trying to produce a new fuel to replace 100LL which for sure will be discontinued someday. Nev
  4. EXACTLY You need to enrichen a COLD motor to start it. Nev
  5. I'm familiar with all those places you mention and how unsatisfactory and dangerous those Lanes can be. Flying in CTA also has it's problems. Better transit zones are what is needed.. and expect better performing radios and procedures to be required in any case,. Nev
  6. Just something to bear in mind. Make sure you have the Cof G or the various loads in the correct place with the pitch horizontal. You look to be tending to tail heavy. How much can you fit in the Baggage area and how far back does it go.? Nev
  7. The plane must stay in balance with all useable fuel gone. Nev
  8. It's "normal" to review at 12 months. Most comments were against restrictions applying. Nev
  9. They were Airsick. Nev
  10. 15 Fahr is not that cold.. Holding in FOG at that temp would have a fair chance of ICE accretion, (RHYME) and a high drag/low lift situation occurring and causing the accident.. Nev
  11. IF it's really LOW it may be a zero turn ride on Mower.. Nev
  12. That is all happening in the USA. Nev
  13. NOW there's an effective rudder on a small plane. Nev
  14. Are you trying to qualify as a HAM actor? It was, " Is Don, IS Good.". Nev
  15. A lot of CTA is above tiger country And in icing conditions in winter.. Your track keeping and ETA's have to be on the ball also and you need a clearance to vary anything. Nev
  16. Makes it hard to put the breakfast tray on your lap. Warning. I'm guessing . I've never been game to use it. Nev
  17. That training is no longer happening AND NEVER should have been approved. Nev
  18. Why did you bring up Viagra? Nev
  19. Everyone comes back to earth eventually. With the engine running you have more choice of where it happens. Be silly to write off a plane because the starter didn't work. The motor will also cool off pretty fast. Nev
  20. Drag not associated with lift production is termed Parasitic. Nev
  21. I understand that, MB. Nev
  22. You Have NO idea of the strength or effect till you experience one. It's pure BS to think there's a speed limit to such things. The big ones are tornadoes. IF they down power Poles/lines how will your plane or some crap "thin tin" shed fare..? Nev
