Just trying to show that there are other possibilities out there.

I agree, local is lekker.....now to do my own Honda V-Tec aero conversion!!

Pardon the ignorance but,

How many hours required for Gyro Licence?

Can any PPL hours count towards Gyro licence or is the only thing you can carry forward your radio Licence?

Phone Placo, they will be able to quote you.

Assume they will add tax, import duties(if they apply) and mark up, so you are most likely looking at around R220 to R250 each

You can get these from Aircraft Spruce, or order locally through Placo. http://www.aircraftspruce.com/menus/el/circuitbreakers.html http://www.placo.co.za/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=22&Itemid=36 The Klixon are the push pull type whic...

Does anyone have experience or know of companies in the gauteng area which can do waterjet cutting of instrument panels?

In the Rotax Service Instruction see the note under section 3.1

VG's are fitted using a 3M double sided tape product.

It's a solvent-free acrylic adhesive that holds extremely well, but can be easily removed with no damage to the paint. It remains flexible, so can take a severe knock without breaking loose, but can be removed by a long steady hard pull.

Just Thought I would share my latest project with my Cubby. I have always been intrigued with STOL flight, and from many articles I have read, it seems that one of the items which seemed to be at the top of the list and best bang for your buck was to install vortex generators. So after doing some se...
