    Golf course is only 1.1km NE of runway threshold.

    Looks like a Tecnam P92?
  3. Blueadventures
    Do they have the ones that have optional bolts?
  4. Blueadventures
    Yes, you can use the one skyecho2 in a number of aircraft. Just switch the internal details to the respective aircraft you are flying. Do you have. SE2 in your present aircraft?

    It worked correct for me, opened Skyranger page. I'm going to try and contact the owner of Nynja in my image to ask his info re fitting the VG's as I'm keen to try them. Cheers.

    The skydive aircraft up this way go to 14,300 ft

    Hi JG I see some vg's fitted to a Skyranger Nynja. Do you have any performance details for the model. Cheers

    I've been dressing my split pins wrong all these years; I'll never get a job at Boing. (Yep 'e' left out on purpose.) May need some loctite?
  9. Blueadventures
    Be good to hear more info as the loose bolts in some instance could still be considered satisfactory secured.

    Auto landing; ?? a new app??🤪

    The plug doors I have used on Cessnas are fitted from inside. I would remove when in the drop zone so rafts and food packs etc could be pushed out to drop to stricken vessels etc. They are safer as long as not dropped out the opening although they had wires attached to prevent such.

    reporting 100m short; great effort as no option ahead as only water there.
  13. Blueadventures
    Yep read that; seeking additional experiences from those who were there in 2023.

    Thanks for info. What is the available cooking or refrigerator in common room like for preping meals we have a family in our group and they were asking me today if I know what's available.
  15. Blueadventures
    On the way, looking good; patent pending🙃

    Have room confirmed and it's an air conditioned one. Are the rooms secure for leaving belonging in? Just waiting to here back from cousins over there as may arrive in USA before so over the jet lag thing. Will sort visa's soon.

    And good jumpers.
  18. Blueadventures
    Thanks, appreciate your advice including not to make a full height alloy bracket at its back as would shield the antenna function. Cheers.

    Getting ready for a recent flight dropped off screen and jammed in right seat rudder pedals; don’t want to ever happen during takeoff or in flight so I’ll never use suction mount again; hence the fixed mount.
  20. Blueadventures
    Mounted now.
  21. Blueadventures
    I have made a fixed mount for my SkyEcho 2 rather than use the suction cap mount as it came loose twice. I will attach this mount so the SE2 is in its appropriate orientation and above the panel location. I made the top half in perspex so it does not shield the SE2 internal antenna setup. Will be installing it in the Nynja tomorrow.

    Its a idea I have had for a few years. Rather than new battery that fits in the unit just have wires that can hook up to the relevant voltage. (Don't know the voltage) Need to turn off when found or asked by RCC. This would be an additional item to the required compliant unit.
  23. Blueadventures
    Must remember the test switch is only advising the circuit works and there is battery life. It does not advise if the battery will perform for the required 24 hours minimum for a PLB and Epirbs are 48 hours. Best to replace on time as you may need it's 24 hour plus performance one day; hopefully not. What may be a good idea would be to have and expired one hooked up to the required voltage through a voltage reduction off the aircraft battery; just saying food for thought as may be a life saving backup???

    Reports coming in about a Japan Airlines aircraft erupting into flames on landing and reports all person evacuated. May have collided with another aircraft. https://www.google.com.au/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjcuPDFur6DAxU0kq8BHfRIC40QvOMEKAB6BAgfEAE&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.abc.net.au%2Fnews%2F2024-01-02%2Fplane-erupts-into-flames-as-it-lands-at-tokyo-airport%2F103280258&usg=AOvVaw3oKszXq9w4AkDr0AtIimp4&opi=89978449 A Japan Airlines plane was in flames as it landed on a runway at Tokyo's Haneda airport on Tuesday evening. Footage on broadcaster NHK showed flames coming out of the windows of the aircraft and beneath it. The runway was also set alight. The plane, which had taken off from Sapporo, collided with a coast guard plane, NHK said, citing authorities. All 379 passengers and crew on board were evacuated, media reports quoted the airline as saying.

    You mention ed a tube or something about being added up the center of the rubber mounts? Have you added these. I replaced the engine mount rubbers on a friends Skyranger and they have a steel tube in the centre of the rubber mount and the rubbers slide inside themselves. May assist preventing distortion.
