Final call Latest orders added to the proof post here. Last chance to check them and approve, or for last minute orders. If I don't hear from you soon, we will assume acceptance of the final version and confirmation of your order. Turboplanner kindly dropped in to check the proof print. Just as well because I had stuffed up the size and resolution. Not sure how I managed it. Skill I guess. Thanks Turbo. The printer did another test print with my second attempt this morning and all is well, so I just have to produce the final file and we're off. I count 137 so far, but I've forgotten to add mine. We will additionally print an assortment of the best (IMHO) phrases for sale at Natfly and through Clear Prop. Payment for your orders will be through Clear Prop.

DarkCriticism:see saw:

Presumably with "Don't follow me I'm going flying"? With or without username? Would you mind if I put some punctuation in there? At least a dash? Like - "Don't follow me - I'm going flying"

Added to previous post - unless you particularly wanted to include the dots. The message is much bigger without them.

OK. We're just about ready to go, so I need you all to confirm your orders. Please check the stickers and quantity under your name and let me know if both are satisfactory and correct. Darky x 3 Pud x 2 Skyspud x 5 Escadrille x 3 CFICare x 10 BlackRod x 2 Sharp End x 2 and x 2 Tomo x 10 and x 2 Trevor x 5 Destiny Flyer x 5 shags_j x 1 and x 1 Neil S x 1 and x 1 Maj Millard x 5 and x 2 David Isaac x 4 bpn@hotkey x 3 JRMobile x 2 Dazza x 5 sfGnome x 1 and x 1 and x 1 Wigg x 4 and x 1 BecM x 2 and x 2 Ian x 2 and x 2 BigPete x 3 Bryon x 2 and x 2 and x 2 Decca x 2 Bilby x 1 and x 1 and x 3 kermit x 6 GraemeK x 2 and x 2 Deskpilot x 2 conor x 3 Skeptic36 x 6 Ultralights x 3 and x 3 Hihosland x 1 and x 1 and x 1 Tracktop x 3 bluey the fly x 2 and x 2 1946 x 1 and x 1 and x 1 Jabiru Phil x 2 and x 2 Relfy x 2 and x 2 BushCaddy x 4 slarti x 4 Chucky x 2 So once all these are confirmed, and any stragglers up until then sneak in, or any I've missed, orders will close and we'll do a run. I think we'll print up some extras and sell them at Natfly, but the only way to get your username and the slogan/phrase/motto/pithy saying/quip/jibe/bash/tribute/diatribe of your choice on them is to order now! Come get some! Note: these are all low-res version of the images. The printed stickers will be 11 x 3 inches (27.9 x 7.6 cm) and 200dpi

An artificial horizon based on an accelerometer? That's same as flying in cloud with a string attached overhead with a weight tied to the end and saying that you always know where the ground is because the weight always points to it.

That was a bit of a slow start to the year. Some nice entries for January, but not too many of them. Let's see if we can do better this month. Get snapping and post your entries here to win a 6 month subscription to Pacific Flyer magazine. Make your mum proud. Don't forget to have a high resolution version of your photo available for publication, and to send it to Angela at [email protected] when she announces the winners. Also remember that if you didn't take the picture, the person who did needs to give permission for publication. So get your entries in, and good luck all.

His username is Methusala. He'll turn up sometime. Flies out of Currandooley near Bungendore, but the VP1 isn't flying at the moment. He's been trying to sell it for ages.

In the nymph-market at Margaritaville. It's too sexy to be just a mobile.

I can see it. Very good replay of the incident. The controller stuffed up big time. It's a Flash. Make sure you aren't blocking the Flash Player, or indeed that you have it installed.

This kind of thing? [ATTACH]9877.vB[/ATTACH] Just choose "add path" from the toolbar and click on each point in the path. If they join up like this one, they form a polygon and it gets shaded. The one I have been using runs on my nubile phone and records my position every 30 seconds and sends it straight to a server on the internet. This can then be loaded into Google Earth to show your trip. DarkPath.kmz DarkPath.kmz DarkPath.kmz

The video is a recreation done by The History Channel. The event is supposed to be real. Haven't found any evidence to suggest it didn't happen. The History Channel wouldn't lie. The KillaThrilla one was definitely fake.

Thanks Ian. Not sure why you are using a frameset, but if I have the browser in "mobile view", the page won't render at all. If I use Untitled Page, it renders, but badly formatted. It works fine if I use standard web page view, so no biggy.

... is not CTA. No aeroplane may be flown into such areas - RA or not.

Me neither Philthy. That's why I posted your photo after I made a painting out of it. Not for publication unless Philthy agrees. I just wanted something to show while reminding everyone to get their entries in.

Last day for this month's competition coming up. Get your entries in to win.

Looks lovely. Here it is (opens in Google Earth if you have it)

Happy to do it Maj. I was joshing. I'm thinking of creating a bunch of extras with the various phrases and no usernames for sale at Natfly. I reckon they'll sell.

Original design? Hit refresh. I used the same file name - just overwrote the copy on the server.

Like this? I should get a prize - most accomodating bastard ever!

OK - fixed. The confusion was because Darky actually wants "Fly it like you stole it".

Like this Maj? The smiley was too small, so I had to draw a new one. I only did it because you didn't call my plane orange.

Works great on my Windows Mobile HTC. Great job Ian. Thanks.

How you exercise a fwying dog?

Ah but Bono became a politician (Sonny for those too young). His wife Cher was the pro. She later came to sit on large cannon entertaining sailors in skimpy outfits. Interesting that cher is French for expensive. So we all know where the real money is.
