dantheman Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Fairly relevant for use along side your NOTAM checks.... Operational Low Flying Training Timetable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantheman Posted October 22, 2008 Author Share Posted October 22, 2008 Am hoping to fly the North Tyne valley soon which is in the Spadeadam AIAA, I know there is no regulation preventing you flying in the AIAA but I don't want to become a statistic - one would expect the Spadeadam AIAA has similar times to those noted in the AIP, Spadeadam range (EGD510) is only open Mon-Fri or when NOTAM'ed. So for reference check NOTAMs and fly outside the hours in the IAP - check here Also I have found the following numbers to check with. SPADEADAM RANGE CONTROL (01697 747321/95814 EXT 6388) Carlisle Tower 01228 573629 You need to use this info if you are ever planning on flying along Hadrians Wall (near the A69) as this also passes through the AIAA.

dantheman Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 YAY Spadeadam range has been deactivated until 5th Jan, just had a short flight up to Kielder reservoir but was a bit bumpy so decided to land out and met another farmer out on his quad but could not convince him (yet) to let me use his fields, will try and persuade with a bottle of scotch later on. Good news is the H&E is now running fine with new 115cm prop and overhauled carb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordon_dunn Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Dan, one thing to watch on the H&E carb (R80 Type). When you change your carb gasket, make sure that the pressure feedback hole is not obstructed. Sometimes the small holes on the gaskets don't line up right, and partially block the feedback hole. This causes the metering valve in the carb to malfunction, and will cause erratic running issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantheman Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 Spadeadam range danger area (EG D510) is deactivated over the Bank holiday so fingers crossed for some Northumberland flying again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
