Marbore II replaced with Marbore VI



It is possible to install Marbore VIF2 instead of Marbore IIF3 it is called the Modification 410.



But you need to install some elements who was on the Fouga with Marbore VIF3.



If you do not follow everything that is what gona happen (photo): Tail pipe will touch the cowling, restrict the airflow, so higher engine temperatures, vibrations will damage the tail pipe and cowling.


An advise, if you do not know what you are doing, do not do it.

It could cost you the same amount to fix it.

Cheap brakes pads




Cheep imitations and costly in a long run !


After new brakes pads was bought for $900.00 garanteed to have been manufactured in the United States ( but printed at the back of the pads is written made in MEXICO), after 40-60 landing on 6000ft runway or longer and aerodynamic braking used on each landing, the brakes pads worn out need to be replaced because the cooper spacers are touching the discs.

The owner of Fouga, was kind of depressed and not happy to have to replaced the brakes pads sold by a fouga specialist after 60 conservative landings. It cost him $1,300.00 / 60 = +- $21.00 per landing.........
