Hi All A recently bought trike - only about 40 hours total time - had one of those marine rubber hand pumps for pre-priming carbs. This one had a bypass tube, which sucked fuel back each time the pump was released, so I decided to remove the bypass. On completion, there was a hole, or tear in the pu...

Another question!

I recently bought a Jora, and did an MPL conversion, from trike. The plane is licenced as a Z216 type. Could I re-register the plane as a ppl plane, and then fly hours on it towards a ppl licence?

Both sides. Open zip at spread bar, ant tie 2 cords about 5m each around the spr...
