Can we do a fly out to your airfield in the future?I think it would be great to get a few microlights in the air at a nice place like that,and after the flight to "kuier" with pilos in the bush.Are you in uncontrolled airspace?

Replace your spark plugs,and look if the plug wires is still in place.The fact that the motor still runs with one mag switch off,sounds like only one plug is not working.
Hope for the best

Rainy weather

Just wondering if it is OK to fly my trike in rain-can the Rotax 582 handle the water,or will the air cleaners get to wet?I flew in rain for a short while before,and nothing happened to the performance.

I not tried the people in the ad,but they were not of any help.Zulu1 helped me before with advice.I bought an Icom A24 from Pretoria vliegskool,and can hear people from Brits,Pretoria,Middelburg and other far places from Potgietersrus.

I agree with you,you must pull it a few times and then when you switch the ignition on and pull,it starts easy.

Quentin Ferreira I only use BP VISTRA premium performance synthetic 2 stroke oil on my trikes.I normally buy 2x5 litres,and there is always a spare 500ml in the saddle bag of my trike. When I plan to do a flyaway,I also plan to take a 5lt or so with. The carbon in the motors seems to be less with th...

We soar with gliders.A microlight is there for pleasure,and when it gets bumpy,we don't enjoy flying -except Dave Daniels in Natal.
