This was my post on Avcom after the trip in December. Due to bad weather we landed in the Limpopo river last week on our way to Pomene. Landing on sandbanks or on the beach can be done safely in the following way with a tail dragger. Tyre pressure is very important. It must be as flat as possible. D...

My VP2 is fitted with a 0235 Lycoming 115hp and can do 110 mph easy. Jan Kemp in Volksrus fitted a Jetta 1800 and did interesting flying. 8) To get to know all yo...

What Oil in Rotex 503

I have been flying fixed wings since 1982. Including Micros like Mc CDL and Shadow but just bought a Windless with Aquila wing fitted with a 503 Ratex. (Agent told me to call it this) :twisted:
Now I would like to make sure about the oil. What is the best brand and mix.
