  1. Not according to the link you posted...you need to negotiate a purchase above and beyond your land ownership. In other words owning the land doesnt mean you own the airspace
  2. 14.5mm dia is awfully large, got a pic of the stem?, or do you mean just the flared section is that wide? Try warming it with a hair dryer first
  3. Litigeous types have no sense of humour and these days the world runs scared of them
  4. https://www.flightradar24.com/BAW9999/39b3ee42
  5. Id be tempted to announce myself as an RAAF PC-21 intending a low and slow pass next time...just add 'tally ho!' at the end of the call and none would ever know
  6. This might help https://flyingdonald.blogspot.com/2011/03/what-flutter.html
  7. The thing with Jabiru engines Is doubling the amount of them fitted probably halves the likelihood of someone buying😁
  8. I agree they were as bad as every USA administration I can remember. Thanks for illustrating Skippy's point on how we got to this awfull situation.
  9. Have you got hold of the wrong end of the stick there matey? (I mean regarding what TDS is supposed to mean)
  10. In my opinion TDS is a rather childish put down term directed towards people rightly concerned that a nutcase has been given perhaps the most powerfull position in the world. The term is almost always used by those who agree with some of Trump's behaviour. Perhaps you could elaborate on your position in more detail than simply throwing out the TDS insult?
  11. Yea I was also confused, then noticed Skippy's statement following those points... "The last three are demonstrably in the best interests of the nation as a whole, being an investment in the populations current & future well-being and competitiveness." . .... agree completely with Skippy's thoughts on how despotes can get into power, it takes a very messed up population to actually believe in and vote for such a blatantly sick individual as Trump.
  12. Need to deal with these Drug sales bots somehow. Odd that it only seems to affect the Aus/NZ discussion part of the site, makes it feel like targetting
  13. Yea, I don't use that site, but point taken
  14. Pretty much the same proportion still havn't woken up to the fact their guy is taking them for a ride so looks like those millions were and remain extremely poor judges of whats the lesser of 2 evils. Zero sympathy for them
  15. Good for you, I have been trying to eliminate my contributions to that country's economy too. It's not just Trump, I know some good people in America but 49% of the US population still support the scumbag
  16. Short video of the wreck being retrieved from the roof. https://www.fire.nsw.gov.au/incident.php?record=recQn0hkFgTcgnsKt Looks like lower rear fuselage impacted just behind the cabin into the the top edge of the hanger likely stalled, and then just flopped onto the roof
  17. Haven't seen this in the wild for years now. I doubt there are many with the problem still out there as it usually became apparent at fairly modest hours.
  18. I think theres only maybe 3 Ladies here, if you include me. Don't you lot just use chatGPT to write your thesis these days?
  19. Could you post a link to the article please?
  20. The thread isnt about you I'm sure a few extra strokes of the keyboard using google by your good self might give you the answers to simple things like aviation acronyms.
  21. Thruster88, Would have been nice if he had approached his neighbour to inform him of his intention to land over their house Following the law and being a good neighbor are often not the same thing.
  22. A Wirraway used for top dressing? I suppose fuel must have been cheap then? did it have some sort of hopper/chute fitted SS?
  23. Alpi Pioneers also have a hydraulic park brake, I've known them lose pressure over time, overnight for instance I wouldnt trust them. I uess they are an easy way to enable a park brake if the brake lines pass close to hand as its basically just closing a valve. The Skyranger series just has a hole in the brake lever to stick a pin through thus holding the hand lever in braked position.
  24. Listen to Skippy here. Set max at 5200 tied down and prop full fine, if you set 5800 tied down as you stated then full fine in flight will allow an overspeed
  25. Does the aircraft have a MAP gauge? (Yes I realise its not a constant speed prop)
