Microlighters

Moving on from "is this the end of microlighting in SA" whatever happens now its not the end of microlighting and a most definite backlash is:

Its the start of a new era in powerplants for microlighting in South Africa. Its really interesting stuff...

South Africans have been through sanctions and all sorts of challenges and have had to get on with it..just another example but for different reasons..

No Part 24 on this thread please or Rotax whatever just a source of retro fit components and materials tips and resources.

SO

I thought that I would start this thread to help out the chaps who are replacing their 503/582 with alternative engines. I have had a few calls about sourcing materials and components. Jhb is full of the necessary vendors and they are good at it !!

A suitable database will be built up and most probably will be able to produce from standard drawings.


Oil coolers

I have used these chaps and they make to specs, very good.
