This is good stuff as most of these items are badge engineered and sold for a lot more. I have bought one of the hose reels and found it absoutely excellent much better than the crap one from clarke that fell apart and always leaked this is a quality item. If you were running production then buy dea...

I have painted my jodel with an international two pack that is meant for glassfibre boats and I rollered it on using their own special rollers and although it is not as smooth as I would like it is passable and very tough, I used it on my previous D120 and I think it is still there after twenty year...

GONE or at least promised.

My friends have a problem with their Terra Transponder and radio, similar in that both have lost part of the gas discharge display for frequency and code, Both unit have been taken out and put in a warm dry place in case of damp but no change the figures still do not come up as complete numbers.

I am disappointed at hearing this I always thought the Irish were laid back over these kind of rules, maybe I am just naive but I always thought we were similar. What do they do about permit aircraft anyway is it the same?

I have a mighty box full of Pilot magazines going back to some of 1968 of the forerunner of Pilot. Many are missing but I cant bear throwing them out if anyone else would like them. they would need collectiing from Dover.

The spar and many other structural parts were made up of multifaceted steel tubing rivetted together,8 or 10 facets if I remember. I doubt that there would have been that little tolerance to damage as the tube were slipped over each other ina descending number of tube as the went out to the tips the...

Well well now we know what they really want. This is not about any availabilty of frequencies or safety it is TAX. For their organisation is all about raising money to pay itself and the treasury. It is another Quango set up to provide jobs for the great and good with fat salaries to match. They are...

Have you tried it on 2024 or the like thats where you see what it does.
Even mild steel take a bit of doing.

I am in the middle of repairing a Jodel D11 and it requires a new Pitot/ Static unit, and whilst the original was a bent piece of tube and some holes in the side, they were fitted under the wing, I do not believe that there was any accuracy for the static but now because I require a mode S transpond...

With regard to hydraulic transmission, I remembr someone making a pushbike with a system like that, and the power loss thriough the system meant it was like riding up a mountain to just go along the flat at enough speed to keep upright. Pumping losses are horendous and that is why there are large oi...

With an aircraft with which I had dealings, One of the pilots had a landing accident,damaging the engine and lower fuselage. The group made a claim to their insurers( A well known UK company) and the loss adjuster came around to check over the AC and pilots documents. The pilot however had an FAA li...
