Re: X-Air Standard and F
You still buy a new :S model from Australia. I just landed with the runway lights and beacon at 9A9. Beautiful evening flight over the mountains in my S with a 2200 Jabiru. Best flying and most fun

Re: X-Air Ultralight Aircraft X-Air Standard and F
Well that is good to hear that they are still making them, I just did not see the kits advertise anywhere anymore and had me wondering, They are a great flying airplane for sure.

Re: X-Air Ultralight Aircraft X-Air Standard and F
Hello there, yes they are still making them but the market has changed
substantially for reasons that most people don't comprehend.
Most people are now wanting to spend more than $100,000 on a

Re: X-Air Ultralight Aircraft X-Air Standard and F
Probably, they are certainly still making bits for them and some of us are
still flying them.
I would imaging if they are still for sale, then numbers will be very low

Re: CHT running a bit hot
The oil temp is always good. During that same flight the max temp was 170 an it stayed primarily around 160.

Re: CHT running a bit hot
What was your oil temperature? I can't fly with OAT that hot because my oil temp gets too hot. Yesterday, OAT was 84F and oil temp got to 235 (with oil cooler).

Re: X-Air Ultralight Aircraft Indicated airspeed problem
Thanks for the info. Having the Pitot / ASI calibrated on the ground sounds much safer than flying at 106 knots and finding out the BMAA were wrong and my POH was right. I will make some enquiries

Re: X-Air Ultralight Aircraft Indicated airspeed problem
I have never heard such rubbish. The airspeed indicator is reading 106
knots and you are only doing 85 kn. This tells me that they expect you
to have the cheapest non-calibrated airspeed indicator

Re: X-Air Ultralight Aircraft Indicated airspeed problem
The difference between CAS and IAS should not be more then 3-5 mph at these
slow speeds not 21.

Indicated airspeed problem
I have a problem with my 912 X-air F. The BMAA have kicked back my permit renewal as they say I ran the VNE test at 85kt IAS and they say I should have run it at 106 kt IAS and must repeat it.

Re: X-Air Ultralight Aircraft Flying H with Doors off
Yes. I fly mine with the doors off. A little slower and some buffeting which I fixed by adding a full length deflector that bolts into the door hinge holes.
