Re: Spark plug NGK for Jabiru
I used them in my XAir for years with no issues. I figured if Jabiru was ok with them then that was fine. Geoff Gartshore Zenith CH200 GCUD Waterloo, Ontario

Re: Spark plug NGK for Jabiru
I just replaced all my spark plugs to the same NGK d9ea and they work great. Some other pilots told me to get a spark plug with R rating due to the fact that it has a resistor to potentially keep

Spark plug NGK for Jabiru
Little bit dilemma here. The Jabiru manual recommends using NGK spark plug for the engine but NGK says that NGK should NOY be used on aircraft engines. Is this due to legal or secuity reasons or both?

Could the transponder 3amp circuit breaker tripping and then my master 15amp circuit breaker tripping be due to a different battery than what my X Air had? Previous battery: Odyssey PC680:

Re: X Air Hanuman: engine-out
Many years ago, we had a series of engine stoppages with an early Jab.? We tried all manner of tricks to prevent carb icing, and I used to climb up to several thousand feet, throttle back and decend

Re: X Air Hanuman: engine-out
Carb ice? I was flying 1000AGL, 17 celsius, 8knot wind from the east. Not exactly sure what the humidity was. I have electronic carb heat but that was not on at any point throughout the flight.

Re: X Air Hanuman: engine-out
I suspect it was carb ice, the first Jabiru powered std xair I built used to stop everytime when you closed the throttle on approach once we installed carb heat it sorted it out. Seamus

Re: X Air Hanuman: engine-out
My only concern is ¡°slamming¡± the throttle ¡­.. It is ok to aggressively pull the throttle back to idle when recovering from , for example, a spiral dive, but I would never ¡°slam ¡° it back.

Hi Justin, Not to take anything away from the contributors here, but on the same groups.io form as this one, there is a Jabiru & Camit engine forum (jabcamit) with lots of guys and gals who know loads

Re: X Air Hawk fuel tank 'shedding' particles into fuel
good to know Sir! ...If this X Air Hawk/Hanuman wasn't fabric covered, I'd replace with a 100HP Rotax and put amphibious floats and keep it for life! Overall, it truly is a fantastic aircraft.

Re: X Air Hawk fuel tank 'shedding' particles into fuel
It will decrease in pressure because of the increased head and also friction losses in the tubing (I did a semester studying fluid dynamics as a surveyor many years ago trying to get water to go up

Re: X Air Hawk fuel tank 'shedding' particles into fuel
do you guys think technically - if the fuel pump is about 40 inches before the carburetor, the PSI output pressure will decrease slightly from 4.5 to about 4.25, for example?
