Light Aircraft Association

Don't forget you're still flying it until it's parked in the Hangar.

How are things progressing for early next year Brian?

From a bad experience last week. A horizontal prop took some of the paint of my rudder. Had the prop been vertical, it would have missed. This was of course due a to hangar rash incident. You could say my aircraft put some paint on to a horizontal prop as it was mine some one was putting away.

I too had an excellent rally. Having heard several remarks as to the airmanship of some, I do think the greater majority were well disciplined.

No excuse for the idiots though. Lots of info online and loads of advice available on various forums.


Far too much beer though.

It is really much easier than it looks. I have been to the last two and not being particularly experienced was also quite concerned. I found it daunting but, If you look after yourself and let everyone else do the same, it seems to work. Don't be rushed into doing something you're not happy with ie....

That's it John. What a fantastic reply service. See PM

I need a Tacho cable for my C90 Jodel fitted with a Jaeger Chronometric Tachometer. The Tacho end has a "keyhole" screw fitting.

Welcome to the new CEO from me. If I don't get to bend his ear at the Rally. Here is what I would like him to take on as a matter of great importance. If it don't say you can't....................YOU CAN Reduce the health and safety commitments. "I am a big boy and can stick my finger in a meat slic...

I couldn't care less whether I use my real name or a soo-don-im. I do however care a great deal about abuse or personal insults. The rights and wrongs of Ron's actions aren't for me to judge, but would expect him to be treated fairly and would be up in arms against anyone who didn't. We all know Ron...

I would like to be able to fly VFR on top and to do so I need the ability to climb and descend through cloud. Having an old wooden wonder doesn't stop me doing this. I have the basic 6. It's the regulations and training in my permit aircraft needed that I hope for. I have no wish to fly an ILS or ai...

Hi Rod,
I expect to clear through Abbeville, then on to Chartres on Friday the 1st. The Illuminations at Chartres are fantastic.Then pop down to Blois on Saturday.
Will speak to you some time before we fly.

Alan

I'm planning to go Rod. Friday the 1st Chartres, then on to Blois. Isle D'yeu and beyond later.

Ok, maybe I am being a bit enthusiastic, but a having D117 with a stall speed of 26 kts you don't need to go far before you have air under your wheels. Nor do you need to approach at 70 kts to get in short.

Can't let that go unanswered I'm afraid. 2 up,full fuel,weeks worth of camping gear,no wind,90 hp Jodel:............200 metres. Stopping the little beggar from touchdown is a slightly different matter though. About 250 metres, 1/2 tanks and little wind is about my limit. I do have a bias though. I l...

Jodel D11 complete trim cable wanted. Not the piano wire type.
