    Thanks Jim, that about sums it up. I appreciate you taking the time to make a considered, accurate truthful summary. FLIGHTRITE, what is the significance of the funny faces you post after many of the postings, including this one?
  2. Roscoe
    Yes they have been very receptive to all my queries over the years as well
  3. Roscoe
    Yes, a Report to RAA.
  4. Roscoe
    Well said, and if the engine is maintained as per Manuf specs, they are pretty much trouble free!
  5. Roscoe
    Its 37degC according to the Handbook
  6. Roscoe
    What proof do you have that it was an engine FAILURE! The engine may have been operating normally but the ambient weather, weight, density height and Wind may gave degraded the performance and affected the climb profile. How about waiting for the investigation results before saying, just another Jab engine failure!
  7. Roscoe
    My point was….. Temp about 40deg Density Alt about 3000ft 2POB Fuel load ? Wind? Just maybe the engine was performing perfectly but the ambient conditions were unsuitable for the takeoff. Unreasonable to infer that Jab engines are unsafe. Cant accept your argument sorry

    You dont seem to have digested the content of my earlier post….. Please read it before making irresponsible statements
  9. Roscoe
    Have a read of my earlier post, and you may reconsider your remarks.
  10. Roscoe
    Doesnt take them too long Col
  11. Roscoe
    Yes 2 POB and temp around 40deg. If they had heavy fuel load would be a struggle to climb. Jabiru mandate ops at max 37deg.
  12. Roscoe
    High density housing and Factories right on the boundaries of Bankstown. Trees surrounding Wedderburn. Are you implying that ops at Bankstown are dangerous? Sorry, I still cannot understand your point.
  13. Roscoe
    Why are you critiscising Wedderburn? Bankstown is a short distance away and is heavily built up right around it. I dont understand your reasoning. Bankstown is a training Airport and has been for many years.

    Much the same as Raa. If your aircraft is used privately and you want to do Maint above LINE MAINT then you have to do an online course and if sucessful, you get an L1 qual which entitles you to sign off work on your aircraft
  15. Roscoe
    Sorry you mean no annual FEE!?
  16. Roscoe
    No Annual Inspection??
  17. Roscoe
    Have a chat to Kody at Jabiru if you want clarification
  18. Roscoe
    Jabiru advertised the larger tyres on their website months ago. They sold them to me. They have approved them.
  19. Roscoe
    Back to tyres, Jabiru do offer a larger 10 ply tyre which I have purchased but not fitted yet. Will try out at next tyre change.
  20. Roscoe
    Maybe, but the reason many went from GA to RAA was due to the onerous expensive medical requirements for GA, and the ageing GAA fleet
  21. Roscoe
    Correct, but the problem is, once you get your RAA Cert, you CANT THEN FLY IN controlled airspace unless you have a CASA licence and medical! This topic has been discussed over and over and is why RAA is working on controlled airspace privilages for RAA Cert holders

    I am currenly in Oshkosh and saw them demonstrating this item. I believe the $299 is USD!
  23. Roscoe
    All my items online cone from the USA. The freight cost is horendous but at least the goods arrive and come with a tracking number.
  24. Roscoe
    And sticks to sidewall with velcro. No probs so far
  25. Roscoe
    I have one. Got one from Sportys Pilot shop in the USA, They are under ANR Control Holder on their website custom made for the major brands. Works fine but not cheap! $40 USD
