I was at the field today between 14:00 & 15:00 all on my own , good flying too. There is a dead sheep along the fence line towards the gate from the pits, I saw the farmer so reported this to her. I hope no one had plans for a BBQ

Posted this elswhere as well,
Don't bother with OS No8 just get enya No3's there are the best alround plug for aeroplane glow engines, I only use them. About a £4.50 - £5.00 each although you can sometimes get a deal if you buy 5 or more. Try some of the websites like sussex models, inwoods or etc.

Sam that was a new plug I put in the engine...what makes you think its on its last legs?

Re: can anyone help me out with some glow plugs?
the last one or two very rarely glow brightly as the heat is disipated to the plug body, as long as it starts it'll be fine
Re: can anyone help me out with some glow plugs?
Ok well she starts so its ok, i just need some as a spare because i have NONE! and with my luck the one in it will go on me when i dont have a spare!

In my eyes Glow plugs get hot when you put the igniter on and make the engine work

As long as it works, im good!

When I look at the price of glow plugs and glow fuel I'm glad I fly predominantly petrol. Steve Webbs main importers of Enya gear has the No3 's for £5.99
P.S. You got the Cosy out from under the dust sheet Rich or is it an old photo Here's a piccy of my old Lotus
I'm just off to find a razor blade having remembered how little I sold it for

It's still under the dust sheet & staying there, last time it was on the road I managed to accumilate 11 points on my licence, very close call as the last ticket was for 88mph in a 60, a quick drag race with an Imprezza I think.
