  1. Tiny Rita, the metre meter maid, who's duties are to mete out justice to wayward parkers, parking a metre out from the kerb? THAT Rita?
  2. We had a guy in the local aero club who as a young boy in England, sat up on a hill watching them practice the craft and he said nobody really had much idea of what they were up to.
  3. SKYFLY AXE A=Aircraft X=Quad E=Electric. Aircraft - SKYFLY Prototype is in flight testing now (this is not vaporware)
  4. Landed at Sully floatplane base in New York just now. (Concord makes a GREAT umbrella when it's raining.)
  5. "At the moment"? Good to leave yourself some options for the future!
  6. Numbers or letters makes no difference at all, ATSB won't investigate most accidents in the sport aircraft world. Very selective, very few.
  7. 16/25 came up on the Fed website on Thursday morning. Instrument 16/25 simply amended the end date of 18/22 before it expired, nothing more. (CASA just moved the finish line) INST 18/22 lives on, victoriously. SAAA members can expect a broadcast Mon or Tues. Had hoped for late Thurs, but alas........ not the end of the world. (that's on a Tuesday, later in the year.)
  8. I believe... (CHECK IT TO A RELIABLE VERIFIABLE SOURCE) that if it is at 90 degrees to your torque wrench, no calculation is needed. Set and use. I have one of those things but can't for the life of me recall what they are called.
  9. The rocker chamber vent Service Bulletin does not apply to solid lifter engines.
  10. Marco - you don't say what fuel you are using. I just had sooty black spark plugs with RPM drop at mag check after running unleaded petrol/mogas for maybe the last 13 hours. Spark plugs about 83 hours use, first 70 on avgas. I'm going back to avgas use only with (570 hours satisfaction.)
  11. That bleed hole thing has nothing to do with this engine. It's not applicable.
  12. NTSB report CEN25LA031 N7521Z 27 OCT 2024 Pearland Regional.
  13. Wings sometimes just have to be forklifted. It's not pleasant, in fact it's generally quite unpalletable.
