  1. Out of interest Skippy what type was it?
  2. You are allowed to fly under S3 lockdown restrictions, thank Christ!
  3. It's just unfathomable that it's come to this! Wait till the middle of the 6 weeks, bet there's a rebellion on the streets!
  4. Tragic to hear the guy has left for a better place, RIP ?
  5. I recall a few tmes in the Sim (where I would ha w to 'sand bag' a session) land asap was displayed and the hurry to get on the ground was worse than the original fault! CraZy WX right now, the sun is streaming in thru the window as I watch the snow fall??
  6. Love that Piper Comment, been around as long as the Cub itself??
  7. ASAPossible has a much higher urgency attached to it where as ASAPracticable means just that, as far as practicable taking into all other considerations including the commercial aspect of the operation.
  8. If you have paid taxes in Australia you have funded CASA, they will thank you for it?
  9. Still prefer the Dixie chicks in ever sense of the word?
  10. HF was one of my pet hates during flying, the days wasted in class rooms filled with 'feet putting to sleep stuff' I'll never get back!
  11. I do feel for those in the hospitality industry, it is a huge employer of staff! Will be interesting to see what other industries will be forced to close? Me shakes me head at this whole debarcle!?
  12. Engine manufacturers had to draw a line in the sand somewhere regarding an over temp. Engines don't just blow up 1 deg over the manufacturers set limit, turbine engines are actually very robust but it's the longevity that comes into question if multiple exceedences have occurred.
  13. You don't have to maintain any set Alt VFR due WX or terrain.
  14. Centre sure do watch. I used to enjoy decending to meet the 9000' by 30 DME ML from the Nth many times going thru exactly 9000' with ATC saying ....confirm you can make that req??
  15. Watched a Caribou Taxi in many years ago next to where I was parked at a small drome thinking WTF he'll corner himself for sure and jam me in too! The noise was deafening! Then I noticed the rear ramp come down and a Aileen looking guy walked down the ramp tethered to the plane via his helmet (reminded me of "Close encounters of the third kind") and the big lumbering noisy bird backed up right into a tight spot! Never seen that, well I had done it a few times in the plane I was driving but that Caribou looked so ugly cumbersome!?
  16. No doubt the sheeple have cleaned the shelves out already! That will make two things that have disappeared, dunny paper & common sense!
  17. Love the style of the Sonerai's, this is my fav, would love one of these?
  18. You must have used up all the film in yr camera with that marathon trip? I've only done short trips over the last few weeks, too cold after a while although today was a little warmer but bumpy.
  19. Spot on? The constant fear & hysteria is worse than any Virus which we have no cure for despite destroying the nation!
  20. Check this one off model out I saw for sale online. Very rare??
  21. This says it all! Always liked the Lancair for style but not wirh a tip up canopy and the 3rd wheel at the wrong end. I prefer a slider for cool factor and survivability although obvioisly not guaranteed.
