Advice please on installing the Bob Archer antenna Model 6

I have had good experience with one of these in my D18 for many years. So now I'm trying to develop a scheme for fitting one into a much smaller rear fuselage. The instructions with the antenna state that it may be bonded onto the curved internal surface of a rear fuselage. But I wonder what the lim...

Re: Consultation on Review of the ANO

Hi Ian,
thanks for posting the link which others may find very helpful.
Guess I'll have to knuckle down and respond, now I've raised my head above the parapet!

Regards

Re: Consultation on Review of the ANO

May I add that it is an extremely well written and structured document by comparison with any other CAA document that I have read. Its almost a pleasure to read it! That said, I asked one of the CAA staff members present at the Duxford meeting if hard copies were available as I had already tried to ...

Grrrrrrrr !!!!

I have only had my new 1/2 mill Southern chart a very few weeks. It shows Wittering on 125.525. Already there is a change to 119.675 Of course GA pilots should understand that frequency changes will be necessary from time to time. Perhaps others should understand that it pays to think ahead and wher...

Hello Steve, thanks for the link. I think you were drawing my attention to this: 'Establish rational, fair principles for CAA fees & charges to the GA sector: Produce a rational and proportionate fees & charges model- Facilitated by the Fees & Charges review to be included in the 2017/2018 financial...

GA Event, Duxford 28 March 2015

The DTI with the CAA hosted this event and a large audience, about 300 we were told, seemed mostly to enjoy and to be impressed by the quality of the many presentations. There was every reason to come away feeling that GA would be in better shape in the years to come as the Regulatory framework is l...

12mm spark plug adaptor for cleaner

I'm after an adapter that will accept my 12mm plugs and screw into a spark plug cleaner and tester. The SPCT-100A Spark Plug Cleaner & Tester has been around a few years now. Its a good piece of kit from all accounts but beyond my reach at over £400. However, I gather it is supplied as standard with...

Postage stamp sized piece of 6swg or 8 swg S514

If anyone has a left-over smidgen of thick S514 I'd should be glad to give it a good home. I'm looking for about 1" square (25mm square) or thereabouts, but as the widest dimension is only 13mm a 1.5" length of strip would be sufficient. Its not a matter of life and death as a 0.25" 4130 plate could...

Re: Cheap Hangar Construction

Thanks Brian. As a membership organisation I for one am deeply appreciative of all voluntary work. And I know just how much time it takes to undertake IT projects that are robust enough to work well and without requiring constant intervention when placed in the public domain. So for me its a wonderf...

Re: Cheap Hangar Construction

Well done Ian.

But I wonder whether Brian will give us an update on the progress on the searchable archive project? It was the intention, or so I thought, to provide LAA members online access to articles from past issues of the magazine?
