Not good.

I was sitting at Narita airport later that day waiting for my flight home.

Yes we knew you were away in Japan as we bought some more items from your store.

The guys served us (God_speed aka Matt & I) well.

Windy Take-off?

Creaking in the airport roof?

Cheers,

Hell yeah aint that the truth. Then like UPS they dob you into customs and you get nailed for import duty and GST as well.

Only once, and never again...

well in some countries they like UPS are licenced duty collectors so they do levy whatever applicable taxes on their customers. can be a nasty surprise for some people.

on a serious note it's a very sad occurrence. and a very strange looking accident. from that one piece of footage it certainly looks like either mechanical failure or wind shear. poor crew. :banana:

      Oh my god, I feel sick. So much second year uni formulas and crap in that for modelling a sprung and dampened system. Blergh!

      Lock up the old for sale / wtb threads.

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Hey Prank, Any chance you could easily lock all the old FS and WTB posts? Even if it's just a one off hit through there. The majority of posts are people asking someone if they still have something for sale from 8+ years ago, when the person who originally advertised it hasn't been on the site in donkeys years. Just a thought I had. Maybe go through and lock everything older than 12 months or something?

      I'd be thinking it's the other way around. Less of an impact when rich compared to lean, but definitely in a lean condition the cat specifically uses up a lot more free oxygen. When rich it's grabbing oxygen from other places to like NOx, but it still gets converted to CO2 and H2O.

      Sorry yeah - My post was a mess and I attempted to fix it. In my example both sensors are post-cat. I realized later that I had literally pulled the motor apart and we saw no evidence of any knock and everything was sweet, so my WB was likely accurate (enough!, if anything the engine looked a little rich) In your example I'd want to recalibrate both sensors. I realize this is not possible in the real world. Best you can do is: 1) Calibrate current sensor 2) Calibrate a brand new sensor in same location (do you have an older one to compare to? Or is this a new purchase) Observe any changes in readings. I always thought it was 1M, I am clearly out of date. Mine is likely 2m+. I didn't want to have to choose one bank over another in my application.
