It may be Redundancy If you have a problem with one carby you will still get some power out of your engine but most likely you get a better mixture out of two small carbs than one large one

I believe cht use a J type thermocouple and the exhaust temp uses a k type thermocouple the error may or may not be consistant I have checked a few guages and found some to have a uniform error across the range which is easily fixed and some to have an error which increases as the temp rises if there is any joins in the cable which have not been done correctly variances in the ambient temp will affect the reading also the best way to check is to use a simulator on the guage or as suggested heat the sensor to a known temp and compare,

Hi we have flown tiger and found them to be just the same as the others only cheaper if you are late for checkin you dont fly same as the others

How far from airport when solo
crashley replied to BruceScott's topic in Student Pilot & Further Learning
I believe it is 10 nautical miles before your pilots certificate and 25 after -
51 % and I consider myself more safety conscious than most of my workmates and I have had a few major accidents 2 car and 1 tractor accidents
-
I was doing the same until the intructor reminded to look at the far end of the runway not just in front of the plane

sonex what about the sonex

force = mass times acceleration mass = piston and conrod weight acceleration = zero to max piston speed in x seconds why do you want to calculate this

Hang in there I used to feel sick too during my early flights I took a travel calm for a few flights then half a tablet and now all I need is strong pepermints dont fly on an empty stomach and try a can of coke before flying I found that helps and as in previous posts try and relax as being nervous doesnt help ashley

Hi well If finally came, the day Anthony my instructor said I am getting out do you want to do a circuit by yourself. I thought for a about a second and said yep I will do one by myself. I taxied to runway 09 at YLTV stopped and settled my nerves and slowly pushed the throttle in, just before I lifted off I thought this is it last chance to pull out. I said to my self no this is it and then I was climbing twice as fast as normal I talked my way around the circuit as I had been taught and then turned final as I approached the threshold I was still too high so full throttle and around I went again this time height was good and down I went flared, floated a little and then I was down. Then I started grinning and had to have a coffee to calm me down a bit, so thanks for your patience Anthony I really appreciated it ashley

If the airplane used a direct drive to the wheels like in a car to gain enough speed and thus airflow over the wings and it was on the now famous conveyer it would not take off but planes use a prop to develop their speed and the conveyer can't stop the prop moving the plane forward so It will TAKE OFF Perhaps someond could demonstrate a model car on a treadmill and then you will see my point
-
Of course the plane will takeoff because the prop is pulling the plane forward through the air which makes it create lift the wheels have nothing to do with it they just stop the plane scraping along the runway

HI can you email me at [email protected] I have some t/c cable that should do the job for you ashley
