    Hello,

    Materials ?I have a few small leaks form the 4mm brake hydraulic plastic tube and cannot find any of this material locally.

    Would anyone know where this pink 4mm tube can be purchased together with new plastic of brass 'olive ' fittings?

    What is your view in regard to the neoprene Prop protector tape? Should the blades be re balanced after fitting this tape as it might be difficult to get it to wilthin a few grams and is there a tecknique for fitting the tape to the radius section near the tip? It is hard to eliminate the wrinkles around the tip.

    What is the recommended service life for the engine Mounts on the 912 I find I do get a litte vibration on the idle setting gust before switching the engine off in thermals.

    Noticed someone has bee calling for mylar aileron gap seals and wondeing if this makes much difference?

    regards john thirwall
