Re: great times

The 503 is a great motor. Talking about some of the most memorable flights I did was from JHB to Lamercy in my first gyro ZU-LEO around 20 plus years ago. I got a bit lost as I was looking for the Ballito airfield and someone on the radio told me to follow the N2 in a southerly direction until I saw...

Re: New Airfield in Hartbeespoort

Wow, it would be interesting to hear what happened there. Was it private land that was occupied? Whoever created the runway must have invested some good money there.

David Clark adapter

I have a David Clark headset that runs off the power pack shown below (female 10 pin). Some people (pax) prefer to use their own GA headsets. David Clark does not supply an adapter/cord with a male 10 pin male connector (to the pack) to GA female plugs. Anybody know if these can be made up? Thanks, L.

Re: RAF 2000 hub bar bolt torque over time

Welcome Dave, excellent that you are here! I have learnt a lot and some of the information is really interesting. I must say that the time and trouble that Kolibri (and others) have spent trying to educate us is appreciated. I expect that if some of his observations are considered incorrect, it woul...

Re: ASI overreading

Just remember that your TAS goes up by approx 2%/1000ft. So if you are in Gauteng your ASI will indicate about 10-12% less than TAS. In zero wing conditions your TAS should equal your groundspeed, your groundspeed will not be equal to your indicated speed unless you are at the coast. You are gonna ...
