Maybe the should fit them all with ballistic chutes so they can do formation jumps with all the cirrus out there..

Bull , add a " y " to end of Bull and some here can take you a little more serious, that is how I see it , but I'm a Jab owner, but I have owned five aircraft and two have been Jabiru's. Two Rotax powered and one Lycoming. The 912 had lots of exhaust replacement and repairs, the lycoming had a cracked head. They all need maintenance.

 

I will be interested to know the cause of this engine stop.

I know the knockers (FT, Bull, Mick Poole etc) will be disappointed but maybe it wasn't a Jab motor.

What is the real difference between the terms "forced landing" and "crash landing"?

 

To my mind, a "forced landing" is caused by one or more of

 

a. loss of the ability of the airplane to continue normal flying - caused by engine malfunction; fuel exhaustion, or airframe malfunction.

 

b. deterioration of weather conditions to a level below which continued flight towards planned destination, or away from areas of adverse conditions would be unsafe

 

c. incapacitation of crew or passengers which prevents safe operation of the airplane, or rapid access to medical assistance on the ground.

 

A "crash landing" is the impact of an airplane with water or land which results in damage to the airplane, and may result in injury to pilot and passengers.

 

Therefore, a "crash landing" can result from circumstances that would not be considered to have initiated the need for a "forced landing", and a "forced landing" may not result in damage to the airplane or injury to pilot or passengers.

............but maybe it wasn't a Jab motor.

I believe you may well be correct Bill ....... Bob

jab powered, non jab powered...............it was a JAB, and that's enough for the tossers to get excited about.

 

 

[greybeard]

An Australian designed fibreglass airframe with an (as yet) unknown engine was observed parked in a bent state at a location not normally used as parking spot for aeronautical conveyances..........

 

 

[facthunter]

Jabs don't bend. They snap into various sized bits if they get sufficient encouragement. Nev

Geese, OME! Just took a look at who put a like on your post and one was, Maj Millard.
