Re: Hangar space to rent at Eagles Creek

There was a topic here or on Avcom about a year ago where it was stated that the airfield owner does not want trikes there, or something along those lines. Mr. Boucher might be able to enlighten us ...

Re: Keep pulling bar back in flight..?

Jou revolusies vir die neutraal posisie klink goed. As jou vlerk fabrieks-standaard is, dan is dit maar jou spoed wat jy gaan kry klink dit my. Maar partykeer word daar so baie verstel aan 'n vlerk oor die jare (deur verskillende eienaars) dat al die gepeuter jou uiteindelik 'n stadiger vlerk gee. O...

Re: Keep pulling bar back in flight..?

The advice above of moving your hang point is based on the assumption that you have checked the rigging of the wing to be correct. A stuck luff line in a pulley, or a luffline wound around the end of a batten could also result in a wing wanting to pitch up (or you feeling you need to keep on pulling...

Re: Keep pulling bar back in flight..?

le boss, what happens when you come a bit off the refs, say 4800 rpm? Or are you doing 5000 rpm to try and stay with the other trikes? Anyway, start by moving your hang point 1 notch forward and then another if it is still not right. This will sort out the pulling back. If the hangpoint is trimmed c...

Re: 6 Dams Flight

Sounds good. I'll keep a lookout here for a forthcoming date. (Just not tomorrow, we are having our AP's done at Brits).
Ideal trip for some more proving flight hours.

Re: Icom A3E to Icom A24: Transmit problem

Hi Magnificent,
It did try that as well. ST on zero or ST on 4, same squeal into headset when transmitting.

Just wondering whether the Airmagic chatterbox needs to be adjusted for a different radio?

Icom A3E to Icom A24: Transmit problem

Morning all,
I switched over from the Icom A3E to an A24. My headsets and intercom are all Air Magic.

The receive works well but when transmitting I get one hell of a squeal through my headsets. What could be the problem?

Any help or advice will be appreciated.
Roel

Zuma Must Fall

Pray our country will be rid of this excuse of a president, rather sooner than later ...
He is playing with what each of us have been working for years of our lives; pensions, taxes, savings, currency etc etc etc.
