Blueadventures

I have seen this hose used for Rotax 912 oil lines. Owners said no issues and replaced with same again. An experienced Rotax and aircraft service person used it.

What's the update, next build task?

PM sent.

The plastic sheet insert takes the looseness out in that first forward panel of the skin. Got the 0.8mm sheet from office works.

Yep, they do a good job, it was gone next day, somewhere else in the hangar. Was not a killer if bitten so a hangar pet. Got one wing finished today. Just need a suitable time next few days to put back on and get the other wing off. Added an update of plastic sheet to fill out the inner section where we get a wrinkle effect, worked well. Fitted new fuel contents tube while had things apart.

You know the drill, or should. Any concerns about forum users report to admin.

Please ignore Skippy's recent post as he often attacks peoples posts. The forum users I am sure in the majority will assist with answers to your question and it is a valid concern. I hope the matter is resolved to yours and your neighbours satisfactions.

I guarantee that in the Mackay Regional Council area from a private strip you will if complaints are made. One of the strips I mentioned is 100% private and has conditions applied due to complaints. Its location is nowhere near the closeness described in this post. Being 211 meters from end of runway and path directly over a house in not a good situation. I hope the matter can be sorted in the interests of both property owners. I know that at 211 meters from my home airfield I am about 30 meter above ground level. My comments are meant to be helpful. Would be good if willing to see an image of the location in question to see if a slight safe deviation in late final can sort the matter. Image of my home strip for example.

All good. Where I fly from we adopt fly neighbourly and don't fly over close by houses, we achieve this by a slight turn. and two other strips do similar in my area. All strips have undergone council approvals.

Council outcome may place restrictions on aircraft movements at his property eg hours of operation and maybe restrict to only his aircraft. That is what has occurred in the past with the local council. As touched on above to fly neighbourly a pilot flying off their own property should engage with the close by affected properties before the first use of the airstrip.

about 0.4mm

Flylight in UK will sell a full 17mm Silicone hose kit with clamps for about $170. Do you still need 200mm of 17mm hose. I could spare that in 4ply 17mm id silicone as I bought an extra meter of the 17mm hose.

A useful reference to maintenance is on page 91 of the Sport Pilot issue 103. I keep a copy in my maintenance folder saves a lot of time-wasting arguments with knowitalls.

Skip; I think you go overboard picking peoples posts apart, specifically my resent one. In my post I generalised that he would be purging the new install of engine, oil cooler and hoses between including the oil can. Therefore 100% relevant to his post considering his build.

You'll likely do first change at 25 hours and the purge will use a little oil (I'd don't reuse what is collected during purge. Therefore you will need at least 9 litres first fill, 25 hours change and stock on hand for next 50 hourly. Over to you.
