Hangarage Immediately Available on a Grass Strip
A space has become available in our 4-plane hangar to suit an LAA type. Currently it houses a Jodel 1050, a Tiger Moth and a Pioneer 300. The hangar has doors at both ends so not much pulling and hauling necessary. We have a 3KW inverter powered from a large battery pack charged from solar panels, b...

Re: Jodel short strip capability
I operate a Jodel 1050 from a grass strip. I can get in within 450 m about 99 times out of a hundred without braking, including with a full load. In a Jodel, if you can get in you'll always get out. If I land longer than usual I just trundle slowly across a path onto a 250 metre "overshoot area" :) ...

Wind Turbine Wake Turbulence
Wind turbines are becoming ever more common in the UK. It might be expected that the wakes generated by a wind turbine have similar characteristics to aircraft wakes (for a nice picture, see: http://www.nrel.gov/news/features/images/20120920_wind_pix00000a_large.jpg ). This means they pose a potenti...

DI Overhaul/Service Exchange
The DI in my Jodel has become unreliable by "wandering" intermittently. So I'm looking for recommendations for where best to get it overhauled, at a reasonable price, or exchanged for a refurbished unit.
