Re: Building the new Bushbaby SAFARI

Hi Oupa-G, My suggestion is GO FLY, what are they going to do, it will take them at least 20 years to get you into court, if they ever do! Life is too damn short worry about people like this. They are only trying to control our lives, because they think they can, well If I was you I would say F#$% t...

If I did it again, and boy would I like to, I would use the BMW - like Frans (Oupa-G) has used

Re: Zodiac 601 XL Project

Looking good....

I was there about 4 years ago, and now have 180+ hours on my 601XL.

Just keep plodding, and you will get there.

Re: Building the new Bushbaby SAFARI

Hi Oupa-G,

How are you going stop the potential rattle of the cooling shroud, on the engine fins?

Are you going to put a rubber/silicon molding on the edge?

Post some more, I need my fix!
