braised steak doesn't last long in our house😁

Please stick to the topic.912 carbs are on top . That's how they are made . Forget about cars and what you can and can't do. I know other people that have expressed concern about top mounted carbs on an aircraft too. It's not my opinion. Have a look at traditional aero engines. The carby is always underneath, same with jabiru.

Good call. I didn't think of that.
-
I should have said 912 fires which is the engine we are talking about, not V8 cars .
-
I have mentioned this plane before, He made his own EFI and retained the carbys. They are dry but if the EFI fails he pulls a cable and sends fuel to the carbs . He does not like carbys on top of an engine. I have not read of fires from flooded carbs though I guess it is possible.

Who built it.
-
A friend of mine has been flying a 912 powered sonex he built for a few years now . I think that is the second Rotax one he has built.

In raaus you are and I would imagine the new class 5 in GA as well
-
I am confused by your posts. I thought you said you could not fly your plane and now your converting to taildragger after a few years as a nose wheel. Have you flown it. Just curious because I really like the look of hummelbirds . I think they would be a terrific aircraft.

You asked what I was talking about the other day. This was it. You never used to be such a cranky old fart. That's my job 😁

Don't forget your just another internet warrior like the rest of us. Until proven otherwise

J160 problem for flying schools is weight.

You have been having a go at a few people lately. Never noticed it before.

You are an angry kangaroo lately. When you insult someone at least own it.

Bobby bailey. Designer of the dragonfly hang glider tug killed in one of his own aircraft. A bolt was left out of one of the struts and it folded up the wings in flight. It still amazes me how so many highly experienced people get into trouble flying.

not rare at all. they were available way back in auf days. lots of xairs have them. we might be on different pages. i am talking about rag and tube ultralights, the true recreational aircraft. -

lots of raa aircraft with brs parachutes, surely someone must have used one over the years. -
if you can afford to import a new aircraft you don't really need the rebate.
-
i have had 2 xairs counting the one i have now and both nosewheel ass are opposite to that one. never seen one turned like that before.
-
i would not accept 450 kg which they did to 2 xairs before mine. i thought 490 was a good compromise. what is the bristell fiasco about.
-
no, they did not. kits were owner built and the raa requirement was the builder had to stipulate the mtow not the kit manufacturer. now they are changing it to manufacturers specs. mine should be 450 but because micheal coates put 490 on his website they let me have it. there are no records of an xair structural failure.
