Leicester Rally 2024

Re: Jodel DR1050

TADS 000. Despite the 1050 and the 1050M1 (TADS 304) being exactly the same airframe (only the engine is different) the LAA in its infinite wisdom has decided NOT to use the same TADS. It would be sensible for owners and operators and Inspectors of these aircraft to have a look at TADS 304 for refer...

Re: New Vans SB….00036

Thanks Simon Ring for nothing. :( .
I'm not even a RV owner, but my own research has found this: now at revision 3

Re: New Vans SB….00036

Give us a clue, please. Which SB? Which RV does it apply to? Have you got a link?

Your continued input would be most appreciated for the benefit of all.

Popham 2022

How strange that there is no mention of the LAA "Rally" at Popham 2022 here :?

Re: 5052-0 grade aluminium fuel line

Martin: I have every other size apart from that. Are you sure it's not metric (being a Jodel) or is it firewall-forward US fittings with a Continental? If the latter, and if you have or can get the blue fittings, I have some 1/2" pipe that might suffice (bigger diameter will be approved). Rob p.s. T...

Re: Wanted ULTRA WING WALK COATING

Will regular Randolph wing walk coating suffice?

Or better still, self-adhesive wing walk tape?

Re: Desperate Need of Jodel U/C part

That picture is "locked out" so (for me) I can't see what you are talking about.
Why not download the picture to something more user-friendly (like Dropbox? Or your own webspace) and then re-post the image.

Re: Copper Crush Gasket Seal (Oil Pump) - AN900-28 /MS35769-48

Like others, I'm late to the party here. These gaskets are less than a dollar each, and I have many in stock, so I would have let you have one for a first class stamp. I buy them when I'm in the USA and get free delivery to Oshkosh (when times are normal!) I don't frequent this Forum as much as the ...

Try a sailing place (chandler etc). They do lots of cable work.

Why not ask the manufacturer of the prop?
