Subject: | Aerobatics International - Forum |
Hi
I have established a new Aerobatics International Forum -
www.aerobaticsinternational.com [1]
This Forum has not been
established with the purpose of being an enterprise or to replace what
is already out there by the way of associations, other forums and clubs.
The Forum has no affiliation with any aerobatic club or association.
I
am an Australian based aerobatic pilot and builder, not really good at
either but enjoy them. I have been addicted to the sport since 1993.
I
see the aerobatic community as truly international and newcomers into
the sport are declining. I am not talking declining membership to a
particular organisation or club but the sport in general. I don't know
the reasons for this across the globe but I see the need for the free
and open sharing of information that the public can access, ask
questions and seek encouragement to give it a try. It can only help.
It
is truly an international sport regardless of where you fly. I have
attempted to make this an international forum where, as an example,
someone in Germany can take a look at what is going on in New Zealand -
share ideas, common interests, tips and general encouragement. It's a
big world out there.
I have included some of the following:
*
Category for Airshow Performers to post details about themselves,
aircraft, events etc. There is no specific order - you will be included
in the order of asking.
* Forums for each IAC Chapter I could find.
If you want your chapter removed, please let me know and I will take it
down immediately.
* Free Classifieds - no need to pay "supporting
member" fees to post an ad.
* Category for Flight Training
Organisations, post details of your FTO for all to see.
* Category
for "Ask a Pro", this is essentially for people new to the sport,
recreational, competition or airshow pilots to post a questions for a
seasoned in the sport to answer.
* Logo design competition - win a
prize. The forum looks pretty bland and I have as much artistic talent
as a XX. Any help here would be appreciated.
* I have included a
category on "getting started" in the sport. This is empty at the moment
- if you have the time, it would be appreciated if you could post in
here information for newcomers to read, personal experiences how you got
started - anything that is going to help.
* There is a category for
links to aerobatic builder sites, forums, blogs etc
* Aircraft
specific forums, general information about the different aircraft bits
* Category for Glider Aerobatics - I have no idea what to include
there, its not something I have exposure too.
* Section for IAC, CIVA
and Judges if they want to use it and choose to be active in the
community - again, happy to remove any category I have setup.
I am
happy to include any other category or forum if its going to help the
aerobatic community overall.
When you first log into the forum, it may
come up with all the categories open. On the right hand side of the
category title you can collapse it all up and of course the reverse.
Unlike other forums, when you post the content or information is not
owned by the forum, me or anyone. It is a mechanism to share information
only so when you post, it belongs to the community. The forum (me) will
not be held liable for any information posted.
I am not a technical
guy; I have had a friend build the site for me. It is not sponsored and
I will be funding it myself for the greater good of the community - I
will divert some Avgas money into the forum! If you do feel generous
then feel free to chip in and make a donation. If costs get out of
control for me, I may look at seeking advertising sponsors or something
like that - at this stage I don't think it will be required. There will
be no Google ads ever - they are intrusive and a general pain in the
butt.
This forum may or may not work, call it idealistic but I thought
I would give it a try anyway - if it doesn't work I will shut it down.
If you think the forum has potential, please be active in registering,
posting and promoting the forum.
Feedback is always appreciated.

Subject: | A new use for the M14 P |
A new use for the M14 P
We were recently approached by one of the major film companies in the UK to
produce a very powerful wind machine for films. The obvious solution was an
M14P with an old MT prop, and I thought people might like to hear about this
project and see a (and not very good) photo of the finished machine.
There were a few practical issues: the control unit of course had to be well
offset from the machine itself to prevent the operator being blown away; a
"door" had to be made in the protective cage so that the prop could be
turned to clear the engine of oil; the engine mount had to be rather
different, since we didn't want, or need, the engine to be suspended in the
normal way, and of course a normal engine mount would have made the whole
device rather long.
In the event, it has worked extremely well, and they have been very
surprised by the strength of the wind it gives! However, they have now
ordered another one
