    Epoxy resin is most commonly used as an adhesive.

    The material is Fibreglass Reinforced Plastic. The Fibreglass is the glass strands which act like steel mesh in concrete. The "plastic" is a Thermosetting Resin, usually Polyester Resin. There are hundreds of different makes and types of polyester resin. The outer or visible surface which is painted onto the mould is also a resin pigmented to the desired colour. This is called a Gel Coat. In your case it sounds like there might be some oxidising of the gel coat. I would talk to the Nynja manufacturer to establish whether Starbright gel coat restorer would be suitable for the materials used in the Nynja laminate to ensure you don't get a nice white surface but then have to replace a weakened panel. In boats and vehicles and other products, painting, spraying a new gel coat then laboriously cutting out the high spots to get a moulded finish are options, but add too much weight for a small aircraft like this. If the oxidation is through the gel coat and into the laminate there will be structural deterioration, so replacing the panel my be the cheapest option.

    ........soon had multiple aviators with 222s take to the skies looking for dugongs in whatever aircraft they could buy or hire. Of course, they hadn't read past the headline, so to them "fox and dingo like" had them all heading for far west Queensland. 53 ran out of fuel, 17 reached Longreach and pestered pub patons and the latte hangouts to find where to shoot dugongs, and whether they had to supply scalps for the reward. Turbo and Cappy and Onetrack went down to the local sports store and bought some spearfishing gear, drove the ute to Monkey Mia, and had winched out 132 dead Dugongs by the end of the first day. By about the third day tourists stopped coming because of the smell and ........

    .......polishing her regulation boots. Melania Doubtfire of course married into the US autocracy and became a fashion icon recently. Darren Doubtfire is cooling his heels in the Alice Springs lockup after a smoking pass down the shopping centre in his Yaris. The one of most interest to us on the NES is Matt Doubtfire, who always wears Red Bull clothing, even for his nightwear, and even when he snores it's in tune with the engine noise of a 1500 ' dive. Matt flies a Drifter; a weapon and is usually surrounded by autograph hunters, and it was Matt who was picked to protect the valuable turle breeding business from dugongs. The strategy they came up with was...........

    Good pickup; email CASA. The VFRG should show the correct one.

    We wen You've said this many time and that's the way it was in the sixties and 70s before scanners. However, now, with multiple scanners in big hospitals and different types, and pushing camera's up from the wrist area into the heart, they can see what % Plaque, and stent an artery, they can see the valves and replace them, etc so there are less surprises. What they do after surgery now is send the patient to regular clinics where they do quite heavy work outs; from what I saw heaveier than Stress ECG, so if you are interested in heart it would bve well worth a look at what happens today. For a start not too many die in their 50s and 60s like they used to.

    You just got some very good advice. The tests you describe are serious heart tests, so personally I wouldn't mess around with them.

    Of course not. I do got top Supercheap from time to time, I do look up their ring binders and get Part Numbers for items and even though you might not believe it they do fit the Falcon when you take them home. Is there anything wrong with that? Did you find the report he made? It was actually about a Recreational aircraft and it was actually a good lesson in safety backing up what you had said.
  11. turboplanner
    You were; you could have looked up the story yourself.

    And also Constable Doubtfire had numerous liaisons which produced many officious offspring, and then there were her 8 bros who produced many young Officers and then there were her 7 uncles and 6 aunts and they were spread all over Australia. Next time you get on a flight to the Gold Coast you could be sitting next to one.

    No, you can go on this site and read all his reports and a running commentary on his fortunes, including getting lost when he didn't recognise Gippsland and I mean coming south off the mountains.

    .........Then there was the guy who bought Ford oil hose from Supercheap, and down he went. Good forced landing but a lot of damage. I can remember him saying "God made sh!t; Ford turned it into cars.

    ......assist and educate the local extinct tribespeople on how to become rich beyond their dreams. As TENT and Flagon's PR consultant Cappy Cook IX put it at the release: "Kill one mother turtle with 300 eggs inside, a good meal for the tribe; catch 10 mothers and let then lay their eggs in our aquaculture tanks - you be like Sultans. Soon the tribes were driving round and round the Community in Lamborghinis.........

    fed on the chololate smarties that sent parents insane trying to break up fights between the kids, and fish guts from the professional fishermen who frequented Monkey Mia after dark and seemed to have some very big Snapper. This got to the ears of WAFISH Inspector Doughtfire. The first night he was on the jetty huddled under a blanket with a beanie on and fishing rod in his hand he was pushed off the jetty, probably because the only ute for a mile had WAFIS "Measure your catch" on it. The second night he covered himself with sand on the beach and breathed through a straw. After a while he decided he needed to go, and cautiously lifted his head to see he was surrounded by ..........

    Cleanup Operation (EPANZ35645879654) which required spraying 100% of the Lake Taupo surface and because of the steep hills around it the only airctraft crop sprayers which could do it were the Turbine-Drifter Cropmaster aircraft. On this dangerous operation the Cropmasters were limited to 20 litres of spray, so 30 aircraft were bought on the basis that the NZ Government would offset the cost by reselling them to microlight clubs. The operation was a success and all whitebait were killed. The professional whitebait fishing companies were outraged and went to the government. "You've killed our industry!" they said, "there aren't any whitebait to sell now!" "Well what do you expect" replied the Minister for The Environment. You wanted us to clean up the bloom, and we've cleaned up the bloom!" This wasn't getting them anywhere so a delegation was sent to the Mekong Delta pair for by the fishermen. The first delegation had to be cancelled after the Vietnam Post wrote a story with photos ...........

    This is a Chemical Company Ad. It may be approved by FAA, but an owner, pilot of an aircraft should be looking for the approval of the engine manufacturer, who does the failures per 100 engines on the dyno tests. That's not to say the product (a) hasn't been through those tests or (b) would not have passed them.

    Hang on, there's the jump from sitting in your aircraft on the trailer and starting the engine to going through ALL the training to RPC first.

    BP at Sunbury-Upon-Thames might be pretending to be Yanks, but we're taking about Australian fuels here so that's not adding anything to safety in our country when people are confused and sometimes misled about the correct fuel to use for their aircraft. I was running through the Australian fuel suppliers this afternoon and there are 88 different companies with from 1 to 1540 outlets Of these there really was a Mogas with 19 outlets servicing Regional South Australia and Northern Territory. OTR was the owner and was acquired by Viva Energy on April 2, 2024.

    If you study CASA history you will see what the Endorsements were, and how they were dropped. If you go on the RAA site you will see that they do have some endorsements but just a few.
