27 June 2010 - Ethanol in MOGAS

We have recently carried out some test on the various types of MOGAS from various petrol station forecourts and have discovered that quite a few of the major suppliers had Ethanol present at the time of testing. In order to comply fully with the CAA regulations we suggest that you carry out your own tests to satisfy yourself that you are using clean fuel which must conform with BSI Specification BS:7070 or EN228. Please note that the BSI Specification alone is not proof that no Ethanol is present. For more information please read the CAA Safety Sense Leaflet 04: Use of Mogas: www.caa.co.uk/docs/33/ga_srg_09webSSL04.pdf

22 March 2010 - Autogyro Circumnavigation of the Globe

Please lend your support to our friend and sportsman Norman Surplus from Northern Ireland. He will set off on Monday 22nd March to try and accomplish a world record by flying around the world in an Autogyro (this has never been done before, attempted yes but never successfully completed). He will be flying through 26 countries and covering approx 27000miles including 4500miles across water and, he will be flying by himself. His web address is www.gyroxgoesglobal.com so please have a look and lend him all the support you can. We should expect the journey to take around three to four months. You can also track him through the use of SPOT technology on the website.
