Many thanks Mike and I'll certainly try U- Pol acid #8.

I've had to change my passwords this evening - no idea why but I guess security is an issue.

It's all a mystery to me!

Ian

Any recommendations appreciated for sources of small amounts of epoxy primer or an etch primer, for several remade 4130N fittings ( external shackles & "lugs " within the wing rigging on a small biplane? ) I have run out of my LAS Chromate acid etch which has served me very well. Replacement from LA...

The link shown doesn't seem to work at present.

Am I doing something wrong?

Many thanks Tony and apologies for only just finding your response.

SkyDemon seems to be my best option, but at present my flying is mainly very local.
That may change for the better in future and if and when that happy day comes around
I'll revisit SkyDemon.

Thanks again.

Ian

Thanks for confirming my suspicions John. I was expecting that would be the case.

Looks as though Sky Demon or Easy VFR might be the only options. I can't justify the extra cost
for the sort of flying I am likely to be doing at present.

Is Airspace Aware still fully supported?

I don't seem to be able to find any up to date references online, although the devices occasionally crop up for sale on E Bay etc. The "Aware" would be ideal for my very limited needs, but would be useless without regular updates, I assume.

I have a valid NPPL and my existing medical Declaration (DVLC Group 1 terms) expires on 9/9/22. I have re registered with the CAA web site and activated my account, but am having trouble finding the new "Cellma" online Medical Self Declaration Form. Reference to the LAPL keeps popping up, but not mu...

If I understand your requirements - the Boredom Fighter uses "Bleriot" type ferrules - brake line/ Bundy steel tubing in short lengths, with each end swaged into a smooth bell shape using a vise and a pair of suitable small home made turned steel formers, housed in hefty ply guides. Not easy to desc...

Many thanks Mike and I'm checking with my inspector ( Dave Sils. ). If he is happy, I'll go ahead with your kind offer at a fair price to you, inc. P&P

Regards.

Thanks Mike and I'll give e bay another try. So far I haven't been able to find a suitable small piece of aluminium alloy ( any kind apart from 1050 - plain aluminium ) , ideally about 3/8" thick and wide enough to end up with enough to extract a blank for the part. Not sure I could afford an 8ft x ...

My A-80 will require a cover plate to seal the hole in the underside of the crankcase, where the old fuel injection unit used to be. The part number in the manual is 21350/ gasket 21404. I have the old intact gasket as a template, if needed. The injector unit is in fairly good condition, but parts a...

Many thanks Sean and that could be the solution for me and well worth a few peanuts!

Ian

Many thanks Ian and I'll start looking for something suitable. Apart from the convenience of having Airspace Aware I am unlikely to use a smart phone enough to justify having one. A small screen satnav that could run the Aware software would probably be a much better option and use less battery life...

Many thanks Duncan. Exactly what I need to know.

I just need to buy a basic smart phone with a GPS, I believe and an Android system.

Regards.
