Adrian Lewer Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Hi all anyone out there Own or fly the X-air Hanuman ? if so all info would be greatly appreciated, especialy with the Rotax 582.
prwood Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Jim Tatlock is the Vic dealer. He has a Hanuman at Lethbridge with a Jabiru motor though. Went for a test fly a couple of weeks ago, very impressed but have to stick with the X-air standard. Jim's contact is 0403 22 8986. Regards Pete
Adrian Lewer Posted May 21, 2008 Author Posted May 21, 2008 thanks for the info. i will have to get hold of him and say hello. appreciate your input.
Adrian Lewer Posted May 21, 2008 Author Posted May 21, 2008 had a chat to Jim today. nice bloke. offered to fly the hanuman up to me for me to have a look at :) .
Adrian Lewer Posted May 23, 2008 Author Posted May 23, 2008 Well thank you to Jim Tatlock for flying up to me at ballarat this afternoon with the X-air hanuman. what an aircraft. (for a rag and tube) it flies superbly, looks great, looks like it would be easy enough to build and maintain and more importantly cost is also attractive. it had alot more visibility than the J-160-C and J-170, landed and flew more to my speed liking but just one gripe........ JIM GET THE BLOODY CABIN HEAT HAPPENING :yuk: and seal the gaps at the top of the wing..... this is what i will do if i decide to buy one and then i would have the best aircraft in my opinion to suit me and my flying. once again thank you Jim, and will be in touch.
