  1. no mention of wing loading
  2. IPP-GEN-008-002-Convert-RAAus-amateur-built-to-VH-Experimental.pdf
  3. they hired to the wong pilot
  4. I watched a video once about a piper I think it was. The owner had it available for hire . Anyway she got sent a GoPro of some clown doing aeros and pushing it way beyond the Poh limits.
  5. they are a drone engine from the forties and fifties i think. a lot of benson gyros were fitted with them
  6. mz202 is a direct replacement for 582 and seem to have a good reputation. this is what aerochutes are fitted with now and they are the australian agents. knowing them they will make them too expensive
  7. got an update but i won't share it until its signed off. far better than the ordeal you went throughj.
  8. i don't even the know the reg on this one. its a storch. i only have 1 pic of it.
  9. i am only asking on behalf of the person doing it. 550 hrs airframe and engine. 912 2007 model. very detailed and well kept log books from new. he is sending off the casa form tomorrow so it will be interesting to see if he gets put through the ringer too.
  10. can't see why an engine that is still returning good test results should not run on condition. how many ga aircraft are on condition. i know 2 debonairs that have been on it for 20 years. and we know how reliable the 912 engines are. good for way past 2000 hours.
  11. Yes, I know it is casa. he was told it will be most likely be approved without inspection because of the low hours , so you are saying $5000 anyway for the paperwork. scary stuff, that charge may have gone up.
  12. 203 kg is not much left over after fuel. If it's 600. It might only be 544.
  13. 397 kg empty. wouldn't have much payload
  14. I never said anything about new engines. Plenty of used around , admittedly more 503s than 447. I was just thinking those motors would work well. There are quite a few paramotors engines that might work too. 1/2 VW's are antiquated too.
  15. Would have thought a 447 Rotax would be ideal .
  16. He is ga as far as I can tell
  17. Must be rauus. Atsb have been notified but act police doing the investigation
  18. tecnams are type certified and can be run on condition even in flying schools. The aircraft my mate is changing to E 24 is a fly synthesis storch so I guess that must not be type certified as he was advised to go E24.
  19. why would anyone who wants to do all that be going for a self declared medical. and it definitely should not be for anything like that.
  20. i think there are a lot of them out there. i met a muster pilot once who had written off 3 r22s.
  21. how many people want to do that anyway.
  22. jared said he has to fill out form 11 i think it is and submit it to casa, they will either approve change to E24 on the spot or ask for an inspection . after that approval he goes back to raaus shows them a picture of plane with E decals and pay the fee. it will be great if its that easy.
  23. class 5 is based on the raaus model i thought.
