    Rudder looks a bit small. Nev

    I know You are stuck with it. . Have a fly in a 6 cyl Jab with a wood prop on it. Nev

    It would be potentially limiting. That Pic shows the Plane flying slow as it's nearly in the landing attitude but the elevator is still level. Nev

    Best forged. There are even better materials than Dural. Look up "Hartzel" . Nev

    I wouldn't want a cast prop.. Nev
  6. facthunter
    You just need a better wood prop. Correct dia and pitch angle. and have a direct drive. Nev

    I'm bit of an "Auster" fan from wayback. Nev

    There's a much better commentary by a Bearded Ex Blackhawk helo pilot covering the roles and vision issues. It's about 10 Back. Nev

    It was better B4. nev

    Of course it's a PITA but it does serve a purpose.. Would you like to be an RPT pilot, flying without any security checking in today's world.? Nev

    I had the worst Christmas ever in 2024,having to evacuate to the other side of Geelong for a place suitable for the Dogs and moved a lot of stuff to the 4 corners of the earth or so it seems.. The '83 fires got to the corner of my block then. Fires are about the Worst thing there is. to be involved with. Stay OK Marty.. Nev

    SO "Sportpilot" is undermining the" Australian Way of Life?". There would be a long list of candidates FAR more guilty of that before you got down to Sportpilots effort. Just WHAT is the "Australian WAY " of life anyhow? Nev

    A lot for a PT 6. Maybe it isn't? Nev

    The RESIN is the reason.. It's not forever. Nev

    It didn't affect Just Fuel lines. Nev

    OOOER! Nev

    Some high Bypass Jets have over 60,000 HP equivalent in each engine.. Nev

    I like them without floats better. Nev

    And you've dragged a compliment out of me too. Nev

    Silicone to the rescue. Check for leaks with slight pressure applied and soapy water. Nev

    Better get used to it. Soon there will be nothing but. Bat$#!T New World. Nev

    Mobil was notable for making some that grounded a lot of Planes, some permanently. Had Caustic still in it.. Nev

    I would generally avoid purchasing a resprayed plane compared to an original finish even if a bit tatty Plane. The first thought about a respray. What is it hiding? Also regarding the Paint stripper. How much is left in the Laps of riveted seams and how much extra weight has been added where mass balancing and possible flutter is involved. Nev

    FLAT fours are the worst motors for uneven flywheel effects of the reciprocating parts and are notable for being prone to crankshaft breakages in cars. Nev

    GEEZ, KG that's a disappointing reply from a bloke who I reckon has most things pretty together.. Nev
