Operationally I think you may find it would be more suitable than the Radial
version - much lighter aircraft, hence speeds can come down a bit over
original For you weight and balance types compare the Radial Version
against a turbine version for engine placement, like conversions that also
The rules aren't so much of an issue as is the cost in both Time and Money.

Hi Ian,
I think the message here is that if you don't think you can rely on a
certified piece of kit then perhaps you should spend a little more time
assuring yourself of its airworthiness with more diligent inspections and
maintenance. This how ever does not account for the Biological
Hi Dion,
How distracting to your flying ability in a crisis(Fire) do you think screen
watching will be?
A large proportion of Gas turbine aircraft operate with Overheat/Fire
Warning which are used to prompt specified Engineered/Considered actions,

Gee,
Didn’t think this would happen so quickly.
Small couple of demographic observations:

Hi Urs,
How do you explain the other 2 aircraft - the on tow glider was only 120ft
behind me and had no idea of the other glider.
This is a club aircraft - downloading and uploading files for remote post
event review/analysis to determine serviceability will not work!
You are seriously

Upon landing I mentioned this to the relevant instructor. After all

I too have been almost involved in a Mid-air - with two flarm equipped
aircraft, 3 in fact! I was the tow pilot of a Glider/Tug combo. All
aircraft where fitted with Flarms.
On climb, through approx. 600 feet I observed a single glider tracking
generally away on a divergent track from mine
I would have thought that this is a mandated reportable incident via the Fed
Gov body delegated with that authority - ATSB.
Will there be a formal report from the ATSB?
