Yes I must admit I have really missed the flying!

Anyways, I have obtained the manual I was looking for, thanks!

Hi guys, I am busy registering my Windlass with Aquilla wing in Australia and I need a copy of the pilot operating manual ASAP. I never had one and obviously the guys over here are not familiar with the type so they want as much info as they can get. I'm afraid I don't want to wait for snail-mail so...

Thanks Morph, now it makes sense to me again.

Thanks for sharing all this information, Morph. I am curious as to why a prop that is too coarse thus causing a high loading will increase the EGT's?

McGuyver, can you confirm whether or not you needed an export airworthiness certificate or any other fancy paperwork? Or just de-registration certificate from CAA, a...

Thank you very much Pegleg, Cloud Warrior, Skybound.

The info is very useful, I am slowly but surely beginning to understand the process.

I do not know for certain where we are going yet, it could be Brisbane, Melbourne or Adelaide!

Hope to find out soon!

Thanks again

I would like to know what the procedure and paperwork required is for exporting an aircraft (in my case a collapsed microlight in a shipping crate) to Australia. Can I just let CAA know that I am doing this so that they can cancel my SA registration and then use my CAA airworthiness and registration...

We fly with 155 on the highveld (5300ft) and when we go to the lowveld we use 158.

Hope this helps!
