    Spot on. Nev

    It was doing long approaches at idle. Plenty of motors don't like that. Pistons get loose. Inlet valve guide fit has to be good and can be .001" if the finish is good and parallel. The exhaust needs more and could also pass oil on a glide. Yes oil (and air can go back in if the flange leaks.) When power is on, some of the gas goes UP the exhaust guide and contaminates the rocker box. EXCESS oil can lower the Octane and cause detonation. Nev

    Keep your very) amateur Psychology to yourself Brendan . I've Put a lot of effort into those Posts on your behalf. . Nev

    You do them anyhow in a slow and draggy plane 500 ft. and I said MIGHT. under certain circumstances . Nev.

    Waste of time using any intelligence here. . Just when I thought/hoped WE might be getting somewhere. Dumb it ALL down, You deserve it but maybe your passengers don't. Nev

    Geez That brings back Memories. Nev

    Both including Low level and aerobatics. in GA. A wide range of planes in the AUF/ RAAus field . Having Height is a good thing where its applicable.. . When you are a bit advanced Lower level smaller circuits MIGHT be a good thing to practice . Nev

    Don't worry Brendan. We'll get there. Nev

    They usually vent a bit of oil when you do that. Nev

    I don't know what those little things MEAN. Nev

    And that's your basis for saying no training Unless there's 3000ft cloudless ? At a place where there could be Arriving IFR aircraft THAT would be a fair and reasonable thing to do. The Context is everything. It's called "Situational Awareness". A "must have" for Pilots. Pity HE didn't communicate it to you. I think I would have. Nev

    Bully for U 2, Brendon. Turbs NEVER answers a straight question and you reckon that's alright? . Cheap shot anyhow. You CAN train at any height that is LEGAL to fly at. OK? Nev
  13. facthunter
    Grow UP Turbs. Discussion with you is a lost Cause. Nev

    Because it's NOT correct. Why quote MY post when your reply has nothing to do with it? Nev

    BAD example really. The Police have jurisdiction over all criminal acts. Not RAAus. Police have control over all RAAus incidents/accidents unless ATSB intervene.. RAAus are invited to assist. Have no right to demand access to anything. Nev

    It may be feeding too much oil. Nev
  17. facthunter
    Sorry, but that reply is meaningless. . The oil return is by the pushrod tubes and they should easily handle it. Nev
  18. facthunter
    You tell ME why there's so much oil there then. Nev
  19. facthunter
    Why is that? Is there any harm in checking the SD's? It's NOT ok to have oil filled rockers. Nev
  20. facthunter
    Why is it RAAus problem when he's not a pilot and the plane isn't registered.? Nev
  21. facthunter
    Oil flooded rockerbox will cause your problem. Engine idling will make it worse. (draw the oil down the inlet valve guide). The oil is not draining back. I vaguely recall the need for a bleed hole at the top of the box. Check all SD's. Don't run your engine at high power uncowled. It will overheat. Report back Nev

    Not all males are like that. It's called "SELF DISCIPLINE" and IF you don't have it watch out. Sorry, you'd have to have self discipline to watch out, but you get the drift. Nev
  23. facthunter
    Yeah YOU keep SAYING that, but it doesn't provide the answer to the real issue . Exposure to an almost UNLIMITED LIABILITY more so than most other sports you would compare it to. Nev.
  24. facthunter
    Some good stuff there. Nev
  25. facthunter
    His Partner , More than anyone else KNEW what HE was like. HIS flawed JUDGEMENT caused the event. No Amount of training could have ruled that out. THAT was the REAL CAUSE, was it not? Nev
