    Helpful as usual

    Weight and balance sheets in pounds are a pia. It takes longer for me to look up conversions than doing the sheet itself. I hate imperial rubbish

    Thanks.

    Hello, is it possible for you to remove all the sold items out of classifieds. There are quite a few.

    so explain to me why, when i read aircrafts specs they recommend a higher maneuvering speed at max weight and a lower speed for lighter weight. i thought an airframe would get stressed more in turbulence if it was carrying more weight.

    its been done as far as i know. and the 55 i had ser 0003 was converted to a 912 and certified for flying training.

    have you ever thought about raising the mtow. i read somewhere it can be done because stall comes in under 45 with full flaps at 544kg. the 430 was done with a clean stall.

    does anyone besides me find it odd that when you listen to awis the wind speed is in knots, the cloud height is in feet and visibility is in kilometers. instead of going between imperial and metric why isn't there one standard.

    sorry turbo. i was talking about the video i posted and you are talking about the other one. i was the op

    I just assumed that they would have the same tanks . I see what you mean now, those 45 lt tanks would add a fair bit of weight.

    do you talk in some sort of cryptic turbo code, i have no idea what you are talking about. why does it have to be so hard to post a video i thought was informative.

    looks like a light sport aircraft. who cares

    the video was in the usa and he was in contact with atc. what has that got to do with a jabiru in australia.

    probably had to get his laundry done while he was grounded too.
  16. BrendAn
    good point but in this case he was on radar and they would have alerted him to set a climb to safe altitude if he wasn't already.

    it would be a great experience, a bit like what holbrook used to offer. but you are already an raa pilot so what are you going to achieve doing that.

    that video i posted shows how easy that pilot and his family could have lived. he just made bad decisions until it was too late. all these videos suggest switch to autopilot if equipped because it does not care if its in clouds but the pilot believed it was u/s because he had not learn't how to use it. he could have turned back early as well. he accepted an imc route when he wasn't rated for it. so many mistakes .

    I thought the fuel tanks would be the same . Engine is 22 kg more.
  20. BrendAn
    there is already a 3300 jab powered aeropup that goes really well i heard.
  21. BrendAn
    ok. i was confused but now i am not so sure.

    I am not getting my point across. Training is always a good idea. I am saying part 103 is aircraft that you don't need a licence to fly as jack has been talking about for ages. Now he is saying he would like a certificate for it. ,?
  24. BrendAn
    i mean why would you have to get signed off when you don't need a license for part 103
  25. BrendAn
    i made the comment and you answered it. before that we only knew it had leakdowns done but not how long ago, as you know early jab motors get pitted bores if left for too long without pickling or regular runups. good luck with the auction.
