Be careful

[Guest Fred Bear]

Hello fellow Jabiru flyers.Just a quick little heads up.Saw this happen on the weekend.A gent put the fuel tester back under the right-hand seat in the Jab (little compartment) but he did not put it back in as it should have been.End result he was taxiing and the fuel tester moved causing it to jam the throttle open.Thank goodness the pilot was smart enough to apply the brakes and kill the engine.For an inexperienced pilot it could have had a very negative affect.Imagine on final??Anyway, as I said, just a little bit of a heads up that it could happen.That's what this forum's for right? :) Put it back in and make sure it's secure.
