    Hi! ALL Was up at 5am preparing for the 50 mile trip to the rally ! At 7am I fixed my passenger to come. At 0730 I walked outside and couldn't see =BD mile ! Obviously the front is living up to the forecast moving east at 25 kts. So I have had to abandon my trip. However there is just a chance I may make it tomorrow Sunday. Regards Bob Harrison G-PTAG

    As a very happy user of a SmartAss, I would comment that I believe it has made my landing approaches safer and improved my landings considerably by allowing me to keep my head out of the cockpit on approach. I would thoroughly recommend this piece of kit.

I sincerely believe that if such a system had been in use, it may well have been sufficient to prevent some of the stall/spin on approach accidents that have occurred.

    Subject: Carriage of Petrol
    I was first refused more than 15L of petrol by Tesco in Edinburgh 2 years ago and made enquiries about the matter. I first contacted the DfT. They sent me a guidance note which said, inter alia, "Petrol Regulations made under the Petroleum (Consolidation) Act 1928 control the quantities of petrol permitted to be kept in containers for private use. This limit also applies to carriage. A maximum of two metal container each up to 10 litres capacity, plus a maximum of of two suitable and appropriately-marked plastic containers each up to five litres capacity, can be kept in a motor vehicle". I regards this note as rubbish and an example of government departments making 'law' on the hoof. Applying the limit to carriage is at odds with what follows below, and plastic containers in 1928!! Plastic containers were the subject of Regulations made in 1982. I suspect the 10 litre containers were the old two gallon ones, which at the time were the only containers specifically designed for the job. I also obtained a copy of a circular issued by the Health and Safety Executive intended to give advice to Petroleum Enforcement Officers. In what follows I have used inverted commas where I am quoting directly from the Guidance Note, which was reviewed in 2003. The 1928 Act and the regulations made in 1929 and 1982 "control how petrol can be kept. They do not specify the capacity or construction of containers that can be legally filled at petrol filling stations or that can be carried on a vehicle travelling on the road." The 1929 Regulations "exempt certain quantities of petrol kept in metal containers from licensing requirements. The petrol............. must not be for sale" "Up to 275 litres of petrol can be kept in any one storage place without a licence............In calculating the 275 litre limit, the petrol in the fuel tanks of vehicles in the storage area is included in the total" But, and I think this is because they don't know about the marvellous 20 litre ones, "the maximum container capacity for keeping petrol is 10 litres" The 1928 Act and the Regulations "do not exercise any control over the carriage of petrol on vehicles for private or work use" They "are solely concerned with the commercial transport of hazardous substances and do not cover petrol carried on a vehicle for private use" "At filling stations, there is no specific legal restriction on the type or number of containers that can be filled................petroleum licensing officers should advise filling station operators to ensure that only containers suitable for the purpose are filled" I also spoke on the phone to the local Petroleum Officer who confirmed that there had been no change in the regulations since the issue of the guidance note quoted above. I phoned Tesco Head Office but I don't think they were interested, Certainly there has been no change in their practice. Short answer is - avoid Tesco. Morrisons, and Asda (if you have an Asda card 2p off) are usually cheaper. If you have a 'Morrison's Miles' card you will get a =A35 voucher to give to your wife every now and then; it certainly pleased my wife! Frank Mycroft

    Subject: Re: Carriage of Petrol
    Thanks Frank, I did some research today and found the document from the H&SE that you referred to and I certainly got the feeling that the rules are out of date. Not only that but the Trading Standards in Hampshire and West Susex (my local counties) run by different rules despite the guidance given to them by the same document, that which you have quoted from. According to the legislation anyone selling containers larger than 10 litres is committing an offence. Surprising how many large companies in the UK are selling 20 litre plastic and metal fuel containers! I will advise the forum on my feedback (if any ) from AOPA, Trading Standards and the Health and Safety Executive. Regards Steve Pitt G-SMDH PS I have received one suggestion (from a Tesco employee) that I should trailer my plane to their forecourt, take it out of the trailer to fill it up and then put it back in the trailer. Could cause an interesting traffic jam. ----- Original Message ----- From: Frank Mycroft To: europa-list@matronics.com Sent: Saturday, August 09, 2008 9:11 PM Subject: Europa-List: Carriage of Petrol I was first refused more than 15L of petrol by Tesco in Edinburgh 2 years ago and made enquiries about the matter.

    Hi, Can anyone tell me whether a spinner with a base diameter of 12" will either fit or be too large for the XS cowlings please? Alternatively, can anyone tell me what the base diameter of the 'XS Spinner' for a ground adjustable warp drive prop is? Many thanks, Phil Visit - www.EuropaOwners.org

    Jeff, Dave, etc. I wanted to let you all know that Lynne and I will not be at Rough River this year. We have planned a vaction in early 2009 that will be quite expensive and given the cost of gas, it won't work this year. Hopefully we'll fly in in 2009. Dave, if you are driving in, don't forget to load up on beer. I don't recall if it is a dry county or what, but we had a tough time getting it last year. I know gas is important, but one must remember priorities. Hope everyone enjoys it -- see you all at the 2009 fly-in.

    Dave- Meant to put in my earlier e-mail and forgot. (The memory is the second thing to go). If you are combining the fly-in with vacation, be sure to see the Mammoth Cave. It is about a half hour from the park and well worth it. Lynne and I really enjoyed it last year.

    Subject: Re: Carriage of Petrol
    It is a ridiculous rule - I just fill the containers on the far side of the pumps, furthest from the payment kiosk. Also, at my local petrol station there is a sign saying only 10 litre metal containers with a screw top are acceptable, illustrated with a picture of a standard 20 litre jerry can, which of course doesn't have a screw top! I think the only metal fuel cans with a screw top are the 1920's 'shell petroleum' type ones you see in museums, which is probably where the thinking behind this absurdity belongs. Roddy Kesterton #220 In a message dated 09/08/2008 21:49:19 GMT Standard Time, steven.pitt2@ntlworld.com writes: Thanks Frank, I did some research today and found the document from the H&SE that you referred to and I certainly got the feeling that the rules are out of date. Not only that but the Trading Standards in Hampshire and West Susex (my local counties) run by different rules despite the guidance given to them by the same document, that which you have quoted from. According to the legislation anyone selling containers larger than 10 litres is committing an offence. Surprising how many large companies in the UK are selling 20 litre plastic and metal fuel containers! I will advise the forum on my feedback (if any ) from AOPA, Trading Standards and the Health and Safety Executive. Regards Steve Pitt G-SMDH PS I have received one suggestion (from a Tesco employee) that I should trailer my plane to their forecourt, take it out of the trailer to fill it up and then put it back in the trailer. Could cause an interesting traffic jam.
