I use "Avgas " or 98 Ron . Anything less is detrimental to my high compression VW type motor. I found that , leaving E10 fuel for extended periods can let the Ethanol separate. As I had a crook hip for longer than " Healthy " , my two vehicles were refilled once per year . Compulsory road worthy check l spacesailor

Shawbury in Shropshire England. Has sill got many aircraft wreaks , it stopped scrapping them in 1972 . What's left there will just rot away . Lots more places than I ever went to . I was going to post a picture, but decided ! , noeer . ( too many engines ) . spacesailor

" No shortage of aircraft engines " . I went to different factories , picking up boxed engines , dropped onto the truck . ( to brake the box ) , All brand new. Wouldn't be $ 20 each ( 10 pound) . The price of the new Harley Davison motor bike in a box to go last onto said truck . Same factory. Not just one . Hundreds . spacesailor : just to put engines in here too .

Don't criy . they ( all ) went into the 'smelter ' even brand new , still crated & coated with a hard Inhibitor . After the war . They were never made to last for long . So their, demise was to feed the Hungary. spacesailor

The only " gold " miner . To get rich was Murphy. The water supplier . spacesailor

My aircraft is grounded ! . How much safer does CASA need it , to be safe . spacesailor

My 95-10 registration was on the raaus list of registered aircraft . As they tookover AUF . with my rego on their list . 18 in a builder's list . One is registered in the 19 category. Then removed for being out of " wing load factor" . spacesailor

And don't forget the English blind pilot , who was invited to land at " Sydney Kingford Smith " airport . spacesailor

Anything for the ' older ' 95-10 registration. Just asking ! . spacesailor

We " East Coasters " have that same problem with " sharks " . We stopped eating them !. Now they are eating us . spacesailor

" no adjustments " . To ' adjust ' a wooden prop . You simply , remove a tiny piece of ' leading ' edge ' to increase pitch . Or remove a tiny piece of ' trailing edge to decrease pitch . try that on any composite prop that is fixed pitch . And there was/is " ground adjustable " wooden props ! . That are a fraction of the weight and cost of ' plastic fantastic props . spacesaiilor PS. : my aircraft was registered as ' fitted with a home-made wooden prop ' . So any wooden prop could be fitted . but a composite prop couldn't. Without a " maruup " as stated previously. The weight difference would is huge .

You can't ' buy ' cheaper , or made with dedication. Than your own work . Expensive glue , & 3 very cheap ( by comparison ) planks of wood . Glued together. Then your hard work to make a $ 50 , wonder propeller. Even the " lofting " is simple . spacesailor

Stainless insert for that leading edge. It's all possible when DIY . PYLON500 Made a composite prop , vacuum bagged , but " never again " said he . spacesailor

Unless they're sheaved in FRP ! . Then it's waterproofed. spacesailor
