[NSRCA-discussion] Starters for YS in Canada

I'm in agreement with DoWayne...sorry Steve...This list has always been a public forum, you don't have to be a member of the NSRCA to subscribe.

I've been a member since I started flying Pattern, 2001, I think, and the first time I didn't renew on time was last year.  Money was tight, and paying other bills seemed a lot more important than paying my dues with the NSRCA.  I got an email asking when I was going to renew, not an issue, I explained my situation and was given a reprieve, but I saw where others were called out on the list for not having renewed as of yet.  My opinion...calling someone out for not having renewed yet is a "hard sell tactic" which could very well lead to the "old school attitude" in which Pattern personnel are considered "uppity"...I thought we wanted to get away from that situation...

You want someone to renew, send them a private email...you don't try to embarass them into renewing by calling them out in public.

If someone want to slam me for my putting this on the list, so be it.

Ken

   I have to disagree I have seen this list been abrused many times by people that have never been NASRCA members. I tyhink it's time someone does watch the list. My hats off to Jim.

    I have to agree Ken. I donâ?Tt understand the strong arm tactics. Is this the way to get new members to join the NSRCA? I donâ?Tt think a public brow beating is good for anyone. If it keeps up you can count me out next year at renewal time. I donâ?Tt agree with it, I donâ?Tt care to have it done to me and I donâ?Tt like seeing anyone else getting it!

      Colin, Why do you keep coming to us (NSRCA) for help but refuse to join our membership? It makes no sense to me.

                Iââ,¬â"¢ve been using the Kavan for years.  No problems.  Itââ,¬â"¢s currently starting my 1.60 and 1.70DZââ,¬â"¢s    Canââ,¬â"¢t comment on the others, as to whether they are better or not, but the Kavan will work just fine.

                Hi all  I tried to start my DZ with a regular, non-geared 12V Sullivan starter yesterday...no joy.  I know guys are running geared staters from B&P and PAM, but I can't find starters like those in Canada.  My options at the LHS are KAVAN and Sullivan Dynatron.  The KAVAN is really compact...but can it turn over a 170? And the Dynatron....I guess I can use it in the weight room after flying.  Can you advise which is more commonly used and functions better?  Of course if there are other options the Canadians can chime in.  Thanks much Colin.
