Should they get the agency, then out of principle one should not support them - time for people that want to make the thing work I'd say....

The SportCruiser is a lovely plane. I would not mind one of those!

Tell me, how does the Sport Cruiser fly... if I remember correctly, you purchased one or intended to!

Does it have a transponder?
Does it have TCAS?
Your plane is also NTCA is it not?

Purely curiousity : Didn't you cycle seriously at some stage of your life?
SportCruiser doing just fine, and yes it has all the above mentioned items.

Used to cycle, but now I am to lazy.

Whow

TCAS, really......I would really like to see the TCAS, honestly.

Regards,
Arnulf

Well spotted Arnulf....

For those who don't know what it means Traffic alert and Collision Avoidance System

Apart from the powers that be pushing for transponders TCAS is also going to be on the cards sometime!

Shawn - your plane really got TCAS or is it just the plane old lookout and alert version?

You see chaps ...re my other thread...you lost the plot..... you see you ALL have discovered public enemy number one. Now I extreemly interested in the HKS but it appears public enemy number one is moving in the same direction..I smell a rat! Help me here..... Am I now loosing the plot? Also interested in the Hirth 2 cylinder one also looks interesting.
There again that 950 KTM advenutre is starting to look really sweet. There maybe a challie up forsale soon. Thanks to that number one chap.

Hey Bad Nav ...What's the flying like up your way?...or maybe by bike soon?!!!!

Postby **John Boucher** » Sun Mar 16, 2008 6:11 pm

Lots of space and stretched out... 50-100 miles and in between! Frustrated because I don't have use of my plane as I wish I could but yes, that's the way the cookie crumbles.

Augrabies, Prieska area, Witsand near Postmasburg, the Sishen mines
it's like the outback in Aus! Dual purpose bike country!

My softness and I went for a lekker brunch run with a mate of mine's GS1200. Just got back moments ago! Was really great to get the boudjies in the saddle again. I am looking forward to the launch next month of the BMW GS800. Will decide then what to buy. Damn, but I like an Aprilia Caponord 1000. Nothing to beat the sound of a V-twin - Suppose that is why you like the Duke? I like the Motard version....
