Flightrite

The QR code system reminds me of the bullshit Covid App the fools insisted everyone have, that died & you never hear of that anymore, just another stuff up by our inept Govt! I'm with you jackc I use the sheet provided most times as my writing won't always be too legible (is to me!)

It's a CASA legal requirement to have sufficient fuel for the proposed flight prior to starting, there simply in no excuse for experiencing fuel exhaustion! Not confirming the fuel Qty onboard prior to flight is poor airmanship, something that I see lacking a LOT!

Mr Van's said it was gunna be a high wing STOL?

There's a new strain (of course there is!) called Mu so will be interesting to see what the lunatics in charge come up for with this one & use it to their advantage! If you think getting vaxed is the answer then welcome to fairyland! Dan & his his fellow cohorts are making it up as they go resulting in the clusterf*cks he's had already!

I only recall the accident in small detail. It sure was an odd design. The guy had a few friends/helpers hanging around him on the day & old Doc (who owned Penfield) was there also but it sure looked weird his design and when it finally went in I think to the south of the drome it disappeared behind some trees but was heading earthbound straight down into a very rocky outcrop. I'm not 100% sure but I think he wasn't wearing a bone dome either, Crazy! There was also a fatal crash of a Gyro copter, another crazy!:-(

This is the level of draconian stupidity the criminals in charge has layed upon us..... one parent/guardian can mind a child under 12 at a playground providing that person does not eat or drink whilst doing so meaning wear a bloody mask the whole time! Utter lunatics couldn't dream this shit up if they tried! I hope all the Dan lovers are feeling real proud of themselves now!

The Victorian lunatic/s keep on rolling on whilst their income also keeps rolling on, their BS & tyranny has destroyed the hopes & dreams of many! The real cost of their criminal activities won't be known for a long time as people crumble under their dictatorship! Lockdowns don't work they just divide the nation & turn people against each other! As for flying during lockdown? Did it last time during the extended jail term & will again this term!

Where you there?

I recall Charlie and that crash, I was there! He was being a bit of a hoon high speed low passes to impress, playing test pilot at only a few hundred feet wasn't very clever!:-(

Here's a little gem I found, another so true!

Jackc you wont convince some in here, they are too far gone but it does make for amusing reading observing all the fear:-)

Found this on another forum, so true!:-)

We are a nation of dobbers, always have been! There wouldn't be a person amongst these forums who hasn't broken some law sometime! We are all hypocrites & the corrupt Govt/s are the worst! There's an old saying you rob a bank for $1 or a$1000000 you are still a bank robber!

It would be great if the people would fight back against the oppression in large No's but unfortunately too many people have been 'infected' by the grubby Govt's hysteria, we are too much a divided nation after all this BS to be effective!

Poor old Glady will get attacked over that by the indoctrinated for sure:-) The resident lunatic in Vict will go the opposite way now that the daily BS No's have exceeded 90, extending the imprisonment time & probably increase the oppression as he gets off on it!

T88 money must be tight if ya got a hand written piece of tape stuck to yr panel with the type & rego😁

I have to agree there Spacey, school for me was for learning about hard knocks, daily fights behind the shelter sheds, lots of wogs (which was the accepted word during the day, no harm) giving it to us whites but oddly enuf we where the best of mates outside of the school yards, hmmm...nothing academically worth remembering. Growing up in a commission area and attending the public system meant you learnt by the strap, 6 of the best pretty much every other day, then again at home. I probably deserved it anyway and as mentioned didn't do many any harm:-) At grade 6 it was time to be divided up, clever kids (which where few) went to high school, the rest of us trouble makers went to a tech school, we where the ones that failed tests regularly. I saw form D (the lowest class( for the 4 years I was in secondary school, came away with practical skills but zero smarts, the crazy thing is I retired as a jet Capt, go figure:-) Thread drift, as already said maybe we need another thread about education, or lack of it! I'd hate to be in the public system these days also!

I'll guarantee they where dobbed in, seems to be the Aussie way!

I put a lot of blame of restlessness and a non desire to learn due to discipline, or lack of it! We have become a weak nation where we pander to the weak, the youth of today have little respect & know they can't be touched! Discipline at home & at school back when was administered liberally! Dad used to belt the crap out of us boys as did the head master, never did us any harm & taught respect! I feel sorry for teachers, they are in a war with no weapons!

Our grubby councils are well known to knock down the little people, it's in their mantra to destroy those that rock their cushy boat & create more paperwork! Having dealt with a certain inept council during an owner builder adventure some years ago it was the worst experience I had ever come across of jobs fr the boys!

Who would wanna be a teacher these days? The system is stuffed & with all this BS Covid crap they are suffering big time along with their parents trying to hold together some sort of normal life! The sooner we have another ice age the better!

The airfield's not closing down (lots of development going on there as an air park)but we are talking about corrupt inefficient councils who are obstructive at every turn! It's Australia remember, a convoluted corrupt mess when it comes to Govt's etc!

Good idea, A/C syndicates are generally bloody awful! Been there done that. NEVER again! Now back to work & stop goofing off there:-)

I can't see the difficulty here, we have a power driven vehicle, simply as that!

Haha love that:-) ALL the lunatics in charge are enjoying their power trips whilst they send numerous businesses to the wall & individuals to desperation with their oppression! It wont end here there's plenty more hurt to be handed out yet! By Xmas during lockdown No 10 (or whatever number) we may very well see far more revolt in the streets! Talk about a divided ruined nation!
