thanks for all the reply's every situation obviously merits a different answer but I think the concensus was "get the plane down on the ground" In my experience, unless you are already in the flare, go-around. During take-off roll - stop. Other stages of flight - pull up and/or turn. Birds never (a...

My AP says the same thing. The long list above sounds good but it is preceded by "(1) Emergency/en route maintenance comprising of the following, provided that only approved materials, parts and components are used:" I don't see anything about routine maintenance. So where does it actually say we ca...

Hi Rianier,

It looks very nice. Do you have any plans for a handheld version.

Thanks

Two Cubby's over my home turf - FASH.

Quote "I used Cubby which is a bitch on the ground".
My first taildragger was a cubby and I have just had a few frights so far. My sixteen yr old daughter will be doing her PPL on the Cubby and she has managed some successful landings already. So we will see.

There are lots of stories, some true and some hype. I flew nose wheel aircraft for 30 years before I tried a tail wheel aircraft and my only regret is that I waited so long. 1. I think the key is the instructor and ones ability to do exactly as he/she says. 2. Dont worry about all the hype but all i...

Would appreciatte if any Cubby Owners have any tech tips, AD's SB's they wish to share! Fantastic aircraft. 3 near cape town - mine, DVR at stellenbosch, 2 in Mossel bay, one at Margate and the rest in gauteng area. PM'd you about latest bulletins. Fly from rear seat only when solo. 3 point landing...

I have a Cubby and considering the cost of hire and fly aircraft lately, I have come to the conclusion that the Cubby and Tri-Cubby are good aircraft for hour builders etc. and / or inexpensive fun flying particularly if it is owned by a syndicate. There is a Tri-Cubby (nose wheel) for sale (R180 00...

Hi Rainier,

I am in the market for a light weight transponder. Do you have a delivery date yet for your model.

Thanks. Trevor

I am keen on going for a flight in a challenger. Can anybody help. I have a cubby based at Stellenbosch.

Thanks

I heard about a guy that tended to come home late on friday night (Sat am) which made his wife a tad grumpy. On one such occassion he got home to find that all the doors had been bolted and he couldnt get in. So as he was going to have a long wait he went into the garage, fired up the lawn mower and...

Glad you are flying again.
Dont want to p on your parade but dont you need a new ATF after the engine type change?

b) in case I get caught out one evening I don't think my current light produces that much light! Just a thought, are you also making a plan to fit nav lights as they are also required for night flying. Another thought, is night flying permitted on your aircraft type. My concern is what would I do i...

I have just made a late decision to go to Vredendal this weekend for the airshow. BUT no accom in Vredendal. Does any body have any contacts for accom in Clanwilliam?
