Let's see...... the black wire connects to the freps....... the cannon plug goes to port 'A'.......... the secondary harness is linked into the 7-point plug while the RS232 input runs laterally across the base of the chassis tray and must only connect to the blue input socket........ the suction cup is placed on a anteriolateral surface in a perpendovertical plane but must not exceed 27.3 mm from the direct axis of the second rivet counting from the left....... there must not be any electrical storms within 328NM......



AHH FCUK IT LET'S JUST FLY THE PHUCKIN THING.......



mmmmmmm, much better

Damn fine way to spend an afternoon, finished off with a beaut steak & coupla coldies.........We won't discuss what you said to the barmaid though.......

I think its time....................for Just For Men - Welcome

You are a funny bugger Jamjar

But the skin mapping test the next morning after the storms went away was interesting. If you ever want a stormscope fitted make sure the skin mapping test is done first.

Geez you are a brave man Jaba!

If I suggested that my "pride and joy" needed an expensive upgrade, I would be out on the street before I could say, "No! I didn't mean you, darling"!

Upgrades...

Yep... going to put a battery in the old J2 so I can pull that handle thingy hanging out of the panel so it will contact the starter and fire up the motor.
That will make the 'armstrong' one redundant, and make it a more relaxed start up. Less exercise tho.

And not only that...Ive invested in improving the user-terrain interface... a spray can of perspex cleaner. All the better to see the GAFA out there with.
Perspex being the No 1 navaid... you look out thru it.

J2 deserves an upgrade, having just given it new fabric and paint.

Whoohoo.. grass hopping shortly.!

Trying to sell my pride and joy so I can buy a share in another pride and joy that's got 55 Kt on the current one and can go up side down. At night if you have to!

Enough of an upgrade?

Easy there tiger boy, mine's only a powered parachute on short final with 50 degrees flaps out!

I taxied a tiger once, would make a nice four seater for the family. Do they make them IFR?

I think the Chairperson was meaning MOTH as is DH. The Grumman Tiger is a nice machine, one at ycab maybe two actually in IFR trim.

Frigatebird we expect pictures of course!

self castoring nose wheel can be fun to work out.
Self castoring? It has a mind of its own? Nahh you need to get out more. It is like a tail wheel on the front. Use rudder and brakes.....just keep off the brakes as much as you can.

Overall it is far better than them Cessna/Piper things whether it is a Grumman or an RV.

+1 for the Tiger, tho to type n00bs the self castoring nose wheel can be fun to work out.

Never done the numbers against the Archer tho, as it is supposedly a comparable machine
