I wouldn't claim actual knowledge, just an assumption from the websites (and we all know about assuming...)🙄

There is a Bearhawk LSA, but it is tandem seat, but the photo above does look more like the four seater, however it is possible that the builder incorporated all the 'lightening' features from the LSA into a two side by side version?🤔

I think that is Bearhawk...?

There is a relevant detail in the spec sheets, 90lts in a fibreglass header tank, in front of the instrument panel... Having a few hours in Garry's blue prototype Cougar, there is a noticeable CofG shift as fuel is burnt off, the subject plane also had wing tanks, behind the wing spar. Now throw an extra body in the back seat, and life can get interesting if you're not on top of the fuel system.😳 On a side note, interesting to see a '100LL Avgas only' sticker on the fuel cap, but I guess if it had a home made turbo system on a 912ULS, it may be the case...🤔

Media now saying a Jabiru and Cessna 182; Shepparton News 🤷‍♂️

Oh dear.

This is somewhat akin to painting a target on your back! Unless Yuri has already moved Aeroprakt out of the Ukraine, I would feel nervous turning up to work in the next few weeks... How are the rest of us up for spares?

Those French...

I assume there's the obligatory 'Crusader flying with wings folded' photo in here somewhere?

Not 100% sure here, but I think the Delta Dart was the one that got the area rule mods done to it (there doesn't seem to be any 'wasting' in the photo of the Dagger there...), the performance comparisons here would indicate the effectiveness of using area rule.

Photo's only showing one wreckage (Jab), and some Cub parked next to the strip? Wreckage direction is odd, being across the threshold? Did the jab hit a tow rope?

And to think that pilots build/buy RV 'As' (with a nose wheel) because they worry about a tail dragger tipping over...

'community coverup if smugglers were coming into a small Aboriginal community that is Milingimbi.' Can't imagine they would want to smuggle metho all the way from East Timor?

Worse case scenario could be that 'a' person with an ASIC may be required to be responsible for other people on the field?

Pulling the wings off 210's sounds to be a bit of a habit...
