Hi Bennie,

I will like to attend next year. A mate of mine is attending but I have already made plans with the family. Is the event every year and where do all the people sleep?

Hi Hennie, I would just like to comment on the modified performance exhausts- yes they do improve the performance and profides a couple of extra horses, but that is a sure way of shortening the life span of the motor.

Hi PIERRE, The main difference between 618 and the 582 besides bore and stroke is the exhaust reed valves, this gives the 618 a higher altitude operation. All the carbs and ignition systems are transferrable from the 503 and 582. It has a different exhaust system. All the other issues written on the...

It is amazing what men will do for the love of flying :D
