  1. My first flight of 2024, today. The weather at Dover was amazingly good for mid February, gentle breeze & bright sun. I am looking forward to more tomorrow.
  2. Thanks Both. Looks like I will have to drill & tap M5.
  3. I have acquired a Moki 180 2 stroke, recently, it came without the silencer fixing bolts. I am unable to achieve satisfactory security with M4 bolts & M5s are too big. Can anyone confirm the correct size, please? Tony
  4. To test the system, I bought a couple of cheap items from the UK warehouse last Thursday. They arrived today!
  5. Please see the attached photo. The tank is a square SLEC item, I think 14oz, it projects approx 6mm above the former immediately behind it. Surgery was required!
  6. Hello Manish, Sorry for the tardy response. My tank sits on the bottom of the engine box, several cms back from the firewall. The fuel tubing goes thro the original hole.
  7. I have a partially built example. You are welcome to collect it from CT13. Gratis.
  8. I have an OS 120AX which has been converted to run on petrol using a MMM kit. It has the a standard OS carb, is very powerful, idles & accelerates as well as anyone would wish & is remarkably economical. I use a synthetic oil at 20:1.
  9. Mine was almost ballistic with an OS 120 AX
  10. I was very disappointed that the South East was missing from the itinerary. I was on No2 course at Thorney Island, followed by 2 years in Singapore.
  11. I was at an ATC camp at Kinloss when the film was being shot. The Mosquitos were a great diversion & source of wonder. Air experience in Lancaster derivatives too!
  12. Three stalwarts flew at Dover today in spite of the warm breeze. The thermometer in my show showed 21.5C- October!!
  13. Must be time to take off the eulogy?
  14. I think they are just clearing the left over stock in the UK warehouse, which was closing anyway because the tax regime changed. Very soon (a few hours) after announcing a closing down sale in 2020, the Ipswich area was badly affected by Covid & that finished the UK operation. They can't be faulted for trying to sell in as few transactions as possible.
  15. Minimum order $1k, to be collected from Elmsett warehouse.
  16. I received an email this AM, as club secretary, from [email protected] suggesting what I assume to be their old UK stock would be available to club members at a sale price & that redued postage cost. Any one else been approached? Beaten by Brian! Tony Scott
  17. Mine is nearly run in & is satisfactory so far.
  18. 60 years ago I covered control line combat wings with "paper nylon", it was meant for petticoats but was excellent for my purpose. I also flew on the Town Moor.
