    Do you actually run IC engines in your planes . Sydney seems to have outlawed those & now it's the noisy prop electric only . I can hear them 2 to three kilometres away at my house , when it's flying day. Council by laws , AND WE HAVE A CANDIDATE, standing against " wok & anticar " In our Council elections this time . ( we have a road that has become " single file for cars after they took half the road for cyclists). spacesailor

    I have carried one for years . off-roading , it was never used , as when the tyre was flat , it usually had a bigger hole than could be fixed without a ' patch ' inside the tyre Two punctures on the " silver city hwy " . I also carried a bigger none pressurised Plastic-bottle of " green slime " which has suddenly ( after many years ) split while sitting on a shelf . ( it's OK for ' bindii type leaks ) . spacesailor

    It took longer than I thought it should have, learning to " push " the rudder, instead of turning with a ' front-wheel ' steering " boxcar " . I see a " trike " has the " boxcar " steering . Followed by " weight-shift " steering when airborne. spacesailor
