  1. I began using Aspen 4 a few years back. Much longer shelf life than “ ordinary” petrol, more refined. Seems ok to me. More expensive though
  2. Thanks Martin, all will be revealed over the next few months. We've also, ( Brian’s idea), decided to add flaps!
  3. Sorry it’s been so long. we can’t get on with the build, we’ll do wings first but are waiting on Slec to have 1” phelonic tube in stock.
  4. laserengines.com is working fine with me 🥳
  5. As Christmas is fast approaching. I’m sure you’ve all written to Santa asking for maybe “ just one more flying thing “ This is proved correct by a simple mathematical proof.... P= N+1 P is the ideal number in the hangar N= the number of aircraft already owned. I’m off to write my begging letter......
  6. Stunning work sir. Glad you’re on the mend
  7. You’re going to struggle getting up under all those cats 😴 Well done on the article
  8. No flying as yet this winter. Car issues, family commitments etc. However, this has given time to 4 little jobs/ maintenance.
  9. It’s not often we have snow in deepest Cornwall at the end of November. When we do , we like to make the most of it. ( I know him as Mark, many will know him as Pastyman and his famous Woodspring Wings toffee drop )
  10. Wife...” where have you been luv?” Husband..” burying our old cat” ” What ! For three hours ! “ ” “Yes, it kept struggling “
  11. I hadn’t realised!! Just glad they’re sending me a new bit🤗
  12. Just had a reply to a question.. I bought some bolts etc including a 3mm drill bit. Everything arrived promptly but when using the bit ...it was out of true, bent! Within a couple of hours I’d had a reply and a new one is in the post. My, what service ! “We’re sorry to hear of the problem – unfortunately we can’t play the video file you sent but if you say it’s bent then that’s good enough for us. It’s a first for us to be honest – and must have occurred during manufacture. The high speed steel is so hard and therefore quite brittle, if you tried to bend it, it would instantly fracture. So presumably it happened before the final hardening process. Sorry we didn’t notice it before dispatch – will post another out to you in tomorrows (Fridays) post.”
  13. My fondest childhood memory was building a sand castle with my Grandad ......until my mum took the contents of the urn away ( QI)
  14. So I’ve been told, the effect of a square trailing edge is to increase the efficiency of the moveable surface. It “elongates “ the air , increasing the effective surface……if that makes any sense 🤔
