Re: Fun: Urban Air Samba at Popham - engine stopped - captio
Actually, I know the 2 guys that fly that Samba. It is based in the hanger next to mine. They are 2 really nice Irish chaps. The prop stopping is intentional, he does it after almost every landing. He is used to flying from very short strips and the brakes on the Samba are terrible. He likes to give...

Re: mogas

Re: Excellent service for permit renewal
I don't usually post on forums regarding complaints or unhappiness about something but this thread has hit a nerve with me and I just feel like venting. Maybe my forthcoming comments will get to the relevant people in the LAA. For permit renewals and general information, I don't think the LAA could ...

Category Change
Hi All, Perhaps someone could advise on what I need to do. I have very recently purchased a Jabiru UL-450 year 2000. Currently this is in the Microlight category so any hours I fly do not contribute to my EASA PPL re-validation. I am told that if I change the aircraft in to the Group A category then...
