MYRO’s Permit Inspection has been arranged for 7.00am on Saturday morning, so I’ve been getting everything ready. One of the important things is the paperwork and although I’m pretty sure that I’ll have the log books and cockpit placards (which are a legal requirement) all in order, I’m not so certain about some of the other stuff.<\/p>\n
My biggest concern is to do with the paperwork for the prop. Although I dealt with everything to ensure the prop would be approved last year, I only got round to doing the paperwork for it this week. I may have left it too late because I had to submit a form to the BMAA Tech Office and they then send another back which has to be filled in by the Inspector. To get the latter in time, the Tech Office would need to turn round my form and also get the Inspector’s form out the same day, and the Post Office would then need to deliver it to me the next. It might be too much to ask \ud83d\ude10<\/p>\n
Since changing the tyres over last week-end, I’ve been agonising about what to do, as the replacements are themselves old and although they have good side-walls, they show signs of age-related cracking in the tread grooves. I’d hate for MYRO’s permit to be declined because of it so I eventually decided to bite the bullet and buy new ones, which arrived today. I was thinking about nipping down to the field later this afternoon to get MYRO’s wheels so I could do another tyre change-over but I had to abandon the idea because a couple of storms came through with thunder and some quite heavy rain, so hopefully I’ll be able to do it tomorrow.<\/p>\n
The final thing I wanted to do, although it’s not essential, was remake the dodgy electrical connections from last week-end, but as they’re working and look fine from the outside, they can wait if necessary until later.<\/p>\n
I realise all of this stuff is an unavoidable and necessary part of the process, but believe me, I’ll be glad when it’s all done and dusted \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
