    "Ah, risk and responsibilty..." pondered Nanna "Wanna risk a roll in the hay?..." A line that caused Ahlocks, Planey, Petes-various et al to rush over the horizon; they having been to the seminar where QBE, Vero and co expressed a serious reluctance to underwrite anything that involved rolling and hay. Even a Chicho Roll from Hay ( an hour and a bit from multiple waggas by flattened budvar can) could lead to serious liability issues. “Issues …..tissues…….. pshissues….’ Stormed Nana “What ??? are you all pussies? ============== the family expect the pen to underwrite them all in the garden

    “Glide it in or power it in it’s all the same to me” Quipped Nana. And then mused “Although given that those plastic parrot types have a tendency to veer sharply left coming down from the flare perhaps I should alternate them with a cz recycled Budvar can which I am certain could be persuaded to shoot to the right in the interests of balance especially if i threw in the offer of various intermittent rewards. Speaking of rewards I feel a need coming on to dispense a portion of my meager remuneration towards the fighting fund for Boona Brian’s bent Savvy and the sad foxy at Avalon. All I need now is some suggestions as to how I could raise some funds, perhaps Cloudsuck could advise;- his nom d pen does somewhat intrigue Suggestions………….

    Yes Bob has it correct, I should have consulted my reference before posting. The correct diameter is 1.2mm. for an interesting take on a home made fabric tester have a look at Skyranger : Rudolf une Restauration down the bottom of the page sure its in French but pretty easy to follow or get Google or Babelfish to translate . davidh

    My understanding is that all you need is a smooth shaft hook 2mm diameter and a spring balance

    If I remember rightly yes you do. However two points 1..my unit with the problem was a 11 plus not a 12 which is what I thought it was when I responded 2..If it is replaced by a Garmin service facility they have the ability to save and re load that data for you. cheers Davidh

    It quite possibly needs the internal battery replaced. i don't know if the offer still holds but several years ago Garmin replaced the battery in mine free of charge because there had been a batch of below spec internal batteries cheers Davidh

    ........... Tullamarine just in case he was a terrorist. how good it is to know that terrorist turbo was foiled in his evil intention by an avid ASIC card carrier. When Hiho was in Hilo and visiting the Missouri museum three very elderly Japanese gentlemen were examining a captured mini sub ( piloted torpedo) with great attention. One of the attendendants went off and came back with a Japanese speaker who discovered that these three were teenagers at the end of the war and were in training as drivers? pilots? of these devices. Essentially a massive great tank of fuel & explosives with a tiny cockpit at the rear, the idea being that they would pilot it close into the target, arm it, aim it and then skeddadle. To where they were supposed to skeddadle did not seem very clear nor healthy. The war ended before their services were called upon. The staff member went off and came back with a bunch of keys and a ladder and allowed the Japanese to have a thorough look. Only one was brave/nimble enough to clamber aboard. A very moving experience to observe and one that I just happended to stumble upon. The whole museum experience very moving. Whatever judgements I may have of the Americans they do memorials extraordinarly well. Davidh

    "Oh, bugga!" Linda muttered. "I've jumped to soon......." "that was never a problem for me nor any of the Riverland tribe" cries Nana from the depths of the garden where once she notices those creamy white Linda lady bumps muses....

    Greetings Gavin Sorry to hear that the Skyranger did not sell. Pity it was not down here where he might have been more keen. Anything that I can do to help move it do not be afraid to ask I am only too pleased to show anyone interested my version ot the Skyranger. Question who did you go for the v-fun and not the v-max? I understand that you are on your way os so I do hope that the plane is moved on before too olong. best of wishes David Hill

    Cloudsuck did say "it matters little whether you are in a 530 kg aircraft doing 95 knots etc." the point is that it does matter and it matters a lot. We have our RAA exemptions as a result of a perception that our aircraft will/can cause minimal damage/injury to other parties. Sure you can die in a 200kg 50 kt aircraft but you are most unlikely to take out a school with one. The 600kg aircraft at 105kts is a different story all together with a potential for damage orders of magnitude over and above that of the rag and tubers. I see that in order to insure against the damage caused by the 600kg recreational aircraft the regulators will take away many of the benefits that we enjoy within the RAA movement.

    Tony did say that coroners are questioning the quality of control by organisations. From which a reasonable conclusion is that regulations will be imposed that will obligate full airworthiness compliance on recreational aircraft. It seems to me that the AUF model is appropriate to sub 540kg and 100kt aircraft. Beyond that when recreational aircraft are overlapping GA aircraft in their potential to cause damage/injury by virtue of their speed/mass then the argument that they should comply with the GA airworthiness obligations is becoming irrefutable. A situation that we have brought upon ourselves.

    Paley did plead I'd appreciate it, turbo, if you would keep my schlong out of these posts. Are the posts in the garden of the not holy aunt not wholly knot-holey? Or is it that the schlong's not wholly in the not holy aunt’s knot holey post?

    I'm interested in contacting anyone who has ultralight aircraft for hire in Perth. Our ultimate destination is Pemberton. Many thanks David Hill

    Hiho - you got any grass left, you seem to be attracting fires instead of flies....... Strong fire front from Won Wron to Bruthen creek. Yarram out of danger, but quite a few farms at serious risk.

    When a Jab grows old and its pots grow cold, And the tips of its prop turn blue; When it bends in the middle like a one-string fiddle, It can tell you a tale or two. So pull up a chair and stand me a drink, And a tale to you I'll tell About Dead-Eye Dick and Mexican Pete And the aunt of Eskimo Nell. When Dead-Eye Dick and Mexican Pete Go forth in search of fun, It's Dead-Eye Dick that swings the prop, And Mexican Pete the gun. When Dead-Eye Dick and Mexican Pete Are sore, depressed and sad, It's always a Jab that raises the tab, But the drinking not so bad. Now Dead-Eye Dick and Mexican Pete Lived down by Dead Man's Creek, And such was their luck that they supped on muck For nigh on half a week.......... ================= And the Aunt did curse the bloody fires are back in the garden

    'twas because all the muscat had been imbibed that Kapitan-nostalgia did reminiss of a time so long ago that the Eskimo misses Nell and Nanna did become as one in his mental blur. And thus he did recite "So fill my glass and park yer Jab and a tale to you I'll tell Of Deadeye Dick and Mexico Pete and the gentle Eskimo Nell. When Dead eyed Dick and Mexican Pete went forth in search of fun ....................... " =============== very cold shoulder of the aunt in the garden

    Me thinks Turbosan it far the better to fly to BB's strip & imbibe therein of the fermented juices and walk home than resort to the services of the esteemed Jabiru low wing direct-injestion grape harvesting option. Perhaps the traveling-san will return with an up-graded GKL cherry blossom ........ An aunt in the garden of the bonsai did utter a most fond sigh and moist were her cotton tails at the thought of those contrails from the Budvar flight most high.

    "Do not presume too much upon my love; I may do that I shall be sorry for" replied Capitanius. Which leads one to pondering what 'Capitanius' is planning on doing about his itching palm... perhaps the palm of Capitanius is itching in the garden because he has swiped the Aunt's copy of 'J Caesar' and the flow of quotes has ceased from the lappinous pen "E tu Lockismithimus" dosen't quite cut to the chase however there is a tide in the affairs of men that taken at the flood ..................

    Ever the learned and literary gentleman, Hidy Ho ....... =========== did quote with the plagerising pen of the Aunt "..Capitanius you are much condemned to carry an itching palm ........"
