Mt Erebus, was a government oversight. they forgot to inform the pilot's , of the new navigation correction. Then , tried to put that disaster onto the pilot . " pilot Error " . spacesailor

Lots of Negative talk but one lightweight wheel, will ( hopefully ) show a little difference in the wearing of a matched pair. Not much wear on the ' grass ' strip's, with more wear on those , using hard strip landing . So has anyone , looked at tyre wear . spacesailor

How about a ' light ' aircraft appraisal. Seems a cheaper option, than a super sized jumbo tyre . On a slower aircraft you may get away with a paper blade attached to your tyre . Just have to put the park break on ( to stop bearing wear ) , and off when landing . Another thing to remember! . spacesailor

Aircraft travelling at 60kn downwind. ' 80 kn ground speed ) Turning at normal rate into headwind , the ground speedwell drop to 40 kn . Any windshear will drop your wing fast . ( according to my instructor ( always add airspeed when turning slow,). spacesailor

Is the " minimum stall speed " set too low , so pilots think they can Still manoeuvre, while flying too slow . 60 kn in a straight line will be so near the minimum, they could stall when turning . spacesailor

How about the size . If the right mounting holes , the length can be shortened . Make your own ! . Not hard for that straight prop . spacesailor

I went to grab a photo of my last " Subaru " can of upper-engine cleaner. But either I hid it too well . Or , the grandies have used it . There is a video on Google. ' Subaru upper-engine cleaner sa459 ' To show the ease of decoding the " boxer " motor . spacesailor

Zepplins in a fog ! . " short order cooking " , Sounds American . They give everything a nickname .general purpose. JP . Now Jeep . spacesailor

Or completely empty, with the bung out . To facilitate drainage . spacesailor

The branded ' decarb ' rattle can , is sprayed into the inlet of a hot engine. My Hummel-Bird only gets half an hour run . Starting on the choke . Being small, it soon gets to it's normal operating temperature. But of course not for long . Three litres of fuel for the monthly run . Makes me wonder if the choke is too much . spacesailor

Some ' car ' makers have their own branded , ' rattle can ' decode cleaner . Tried it on a few engines , without any problems. How many hours to get a decent carbon deposit. ( on my Hummel-Bird ) . spacesailor

Has any one tried a piece of silver glare shield. ( most cars use black ) . I had a cut piece behind the Delica mirror, were the sun blinds don't meet . It will take that hot glare off your SE . spacesailor

It is agreed . W&b in balance. From Max forward on take off . Then on that flare you are at minimum w&b . Not when you need that suddenly tail heavy . It seems safer to be the other way around . spacesailor

moneybags. How does your w&b work. when your full fuel has correct correct w&b. Then when at minimum, the w&b will have moved Nose heavy with rear tank. Tail heavy with ' over your knees ' tank . (Similar to the HummelBird) . I always wonder if it leads to stalls on the Landing flare . spacesailor

One bad " solder " joint . ( spot weld ) It will take forever to fix it. I had an Akai vcr with crook solder joints . After the third atempt the warranty would not cover it again . I had to fight tooth & nail to get a replacement, & only after agreeing for the dud to be returned to maker . spacesailor PS. : was given a dead Battery pack .opened it up & two weld tabs were not done .it should have been returned, but too much hassle, so I chopped it up to resize for my use .
