  1. A recent Dan Gryder Utube video; A post / comment by an instructor; interesting technique when in IMC by mistake / error or terror - no hands on yoke - just use your rudder for turns ........... for anyone to comment
  2. ........ step 1 ? .............. before you start the other steps - drop the oil and put in the correct litres amount ...................... and see if that ...................
  3. you must know the correct volume of oil (litres) to put in the engine ............. irrespective of what dipstick is used .............. assuming you have started there ? (obvious simple advice thrown in)
  4. keep up the good work up FH - with plus 32k posts you are sure to attract some attention ........ most of it good (most of us hope)
  5. On another thread - see case 1 below (and others) - you read comments that RAA have various legal issues and claims I am personally unaware of such matters other than reading case 1 below ...................... Is it possible that we can have a rough idea of the circumstance - either: - a description of the issue and being vague of the incident - a description of the incident and being vague of the issue - etc can we discuss these various matters (probably vaguely) Case in point: case 1 - https://www.recreationalflying.com/forums/topic/38545-small-plane-missing-victoria-180922/page/8/
  6. big paint brush that one onetrack ! translation could be: ........................ all the Bindoon theives live in Northam
  7. the licensors actions (RAA) have to be held too account - that is the licensors risk & justification in charging those regular annual fees - whether its a person or a plane ..................... (some heavy ones (planes) in RAA I believe) that is what the parties; that have suffered a loss; are trying to extract consider if the pilot had no next of kin (a loner or a hermit with a flying bug) .................. the lawyer firm would never have been contacted ............. this discussion would have probably never taken place ..................... an irony there
  8. cessna agwagon with retract ..................... mercy sakes
  9. and where is the 'aus' location - nearest town / strip will help get some candidates
  10. parasites ................................... parasitic drag ?
  11. spartan executive - 187 knots cruise with a 450 horsed P & W https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spartan_Executive
  12. many years ago - me & ross took a C152 up and did some mountain and valley flying using clouds as the terrain - probably + 3500 feet - we both had about 150 hrs each ross was a confident hang glider pilot as well anyway, i'd be guessing in a tighter turn (ross as PIC) and slower speed (its a memory after 40 years) ............ ye olde C152 fell out of the turn / shook / fluttered / and pointed to the ground it was a total loss of control if you can say that about a stall - we looked at each other with understanding and continued flying - ignoring more cloud mountain and valley flying - we had unintentinally practised what we had been preached (at height .............. ignoring staying clear of clouds ............ of course)
  13. to true BrendAn great to hear past knowledge and experience - and also the posts from posters that don't have anything of that (include myself here) - all should be able to participate - without fear of ye rock hitting ye scone ironically some organisation (etc) don't want to know about past knowledge and experience - it's all disregarged and you just have to follow the new leader (sometimes over same ground that's bad)
  14. fear not FH ................................. it's just the blunt manerisms of the folk from Guineabissau
