Guest Fred Bear Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Just a few pics folks from yesterdays flight in Jabiru 1817 out of The Oaks with David C at the controls this time. Brilliant flying too mate. Always good to hear the blades of grass before touch-down. We departed The Oaks and then tracked out to YHOX for a couple of touch-and go's. Dave at the controls Somewhere near Bringelly Shopping centre near YHOX Khans Hill or similar?? Some nice scenery Need something from the 7 Eleven on the way in?? Finals into The Oaks darrenmasters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 May I ask, What is the big black thing in the first photo in front of the pilots head in front of the stall warning horn? Is that aircraft factory built? It seems to have no lining in it? Noisy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fred Bear Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Noisy? Not as noisy as the Bantam:big_grin: Dave might be able to help you with the other questions as it is not the aircraft I fly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest David C Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 There was definately nothing lurking up there when I did the pre flight check , so I guess it's just a shadow off the flash . The aircraft is factory built , but has undergone a lot of work and I guess the lining has never been replaced . I hasten to add it is not my aircraft , and it doesn't seem any noisier than any other Jab I have flown either . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Dave - I think Nosmo was referring to the thing that is in the red circle of this image: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest David C Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Ha Ha , Yes I suppose it must be a flash reflection on the flap lever . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pylon500 Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 It's not a housing for an electric flap motor? Arthur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Fred Bear Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 I have finally worked out what the object in the pic was after flying the Jabiru the other day. Because I was a fair way back when I took this pic I realised that it's the compass in the middle of the windscreen. It had us all baffled for a while.
