    ..and different N-Registrations too. Seems either one was a complete rebuild and re-register of the other or 2 different airframes that shared the same type name

    Do applications for this ASIC thing get vetted or is it purely a paper exercise?

    RR, I notice you use the words "Anti Puncture" as oppossed to puncture repair. Are you referring perhaps to products like Slime?. I have experience of Slime and other similar products in Mountain Bike tyres and they are effective on small punctures but they dont half leave a mess inside the tube or tubeless tyre. I would steer clear of these products. Are your Aircraft tyres tubed or tubeless? If tubeless and you were actually asking about repair and not prevention, then the motorcycle Plug type repair kits work really well in my experience.

    But you (and apparently everyone else here) is dismissing the fact that the mechanical pump was also still operating in this scenario but with an open outlet valve. I'm baffled that apparently nobody else (except the blokes who conducted the investigation) can see how that can reduce pressure.
  5. Red
    Skippy you have misunderstood, we are talking about the outlet valve in the mechanical pump failing open. I'm gonna leave this, busy today maybe Nev can explain P.S. its highly unlikely that is your problem anyway.
  6. Red
    Of course It wont make the boost pump fail, but If the outlet valve remains open during the suction stroke then it will suck fuel back through the outlet thus reducing pressure overall.

    Pardon?

    No apology needed, I knew who you meant

    The amount of crap most airline travelers take with them for a week away is ridiculous.

    I thought you were moving to the land of the free
  11. Red
    Not really, it would happen in certain situations like a leak downstream But that wouldnt explain what happened when you switched on the Boost Pump, Id be suspicious that this is all false readings
  12. Red
    Is this all from readings on that Dynon you've been having problems with?

    Nice one mb, so just some more solo consolidation and a couple of cross country flights to do? (I'm unsure of your regime)

    Ooh, sorry to read that you have to consider selling Danny.

    Huh?, the wreck is clearly Black and White

    Pardon the selective quoting but I've never heard anyone express that before You rank better than us here in the UK for a start https://www.democracymatrix.com/ranking

    Indeed, but its still a very very bad idea even on non teetering heads for most pilots, I've never heard of a specifically aerobatic helicopter regardless of rotor system is in use. The bloke in the MBB BO105 always impressed but its a very niche area
  19. Red
    Yeah one of the reasons aeros in a Helicopter aren't a good idea for most Helicopter/pilot combinations. Negative G is a no-no

    I know you weren't converting SS Different Bushel SS...? https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/bushel&ved=2ahUKEwiL9O7Y2tGMAxWOQEEAHcjfMNcQFnoECDQQAQ&usg=AOvVaw2ex-it179YfJ2XJWqV69aI

    Metric is easy, no system is as straightforward as metric, all you have to do is move the decimal point around...everything is just multiples of 10 innit But converting stuff from one system to another (usualy trying to convert to your familiar system) is of course a different matter, I'd be completely discombobulated if you stuck an altimeter graduated in metres in front of me How many Litres in a Bushel???

    No requirement to be truthful when marketing in 21st century, but that nonsense is a rather amateur example. A combination of normal commercial bollox and language translation issues perhaps in this case

    You're clearly basing your message on what the media has fed you, having spent 2 years there I can see your post is not from personal experience. They have massive social problems but its not the allamo on every street

    100 centimetres is exactly the same as 1000 millimetres, so apart from the grammar what's your point?
