Re: Kitfox II bungees

Hi Paul. I am horrified to see that you sent a follow up message from last October, and I failed to reply - I only go to this site when I am stuck for something, and having concluded last time, I only looked again today.
Did you get fixed up?
If not I can send details.

Re: Bing 54 carb parts

Thanks Mike.
Yes I have looked - can't find any.
These specs are a direct replacement for those supplied and recommended.

EASa licence validation

My currently unemployed civil airline pilot son wishes to renew his single engine EASA licence so he can fly my kitfox.
We are having trouble finding an instructor in the Yorkshire area who can provide this. Can anyone help with a recommendation (has to be EASA).

Re: prop blade foil leading edge

background reading revealed possibilities, but not 100% effective.
Bought new ones from a UK vendor.

prop blade foil leading edge

Hi all,
The foil leading edges of my prop blades are beginning to lift.
Does anyone know what type of adhesive is best to stick them down again?

Re: Kitfox II bungees

Thanks to all who have made helpful suggestions.
I have managed to find someone who will manufacture and provide certification - all for under £80.00 - Ibex Marinas in Bury.

Kitfox II bungees

Hi,
I am new to microlight flying, and have bought G-BPKK.
I wish to replace the bungees. Kitfox want me to pay c£150 postage!
I can source bungee cord, but cannot find anyone in the UK who can ferrule the loops - can anybody help?
Also, can friction lock throttle cables be replaced?
