  1. I'll definitely start carrying my phone when I start flying solo, but for now I know that my instructor has his phone and if I take mine, it's just another thing to lose... I wouldn't fly solo without a phone though, it's another way of making things that bit safer Although after reading this thread, I might try and find room in my pockets for my phone as well... This may be a stupid question, but if you leave it turned on while flying, does the signal affect the radio/aircraft at all?
  2. Just always chuck them in the same place at home (or hide them in the same place ). Mine are always on my desk, so I know where they are... I'm impressed you have time for picture taking, I'm too busy concentrating on the flying! :)
  3. Out of curiosity, if you don't have your Ps yet, why take the car keys? (perhaps it's just me, I'd lose them and not realise, since I wouldn't be putting them in the car straight after...) I leave my phone in my car when I fly, it's not like I'm going to answer it when I'm flying! (beating that Gen Y addiction)
  4. I dunno Qwerty, I thought they all sounded pretty reasonable really... I'm not doing navs yet so right now I fly with a pen, credit card, licence and car keys but I'm sure that list will grow somewhat when I move onto my XC endorsement
  5. Buy a smaller bag so you're forced to take less?
  6. If it helps, I laughed Always better to get an economical hitman...
  7. The 'up and coming' part means that I still live with my parents :big_grin: The backyard is probably big enough to feed one sheep for an arvo...
  8. How big do you think my backyard is?! Lilydale could do with a mow though, missed the taxiway on Wednesday because I couldn't see it in time...
  9. ...called a Drifter? Darky -> :devil:
  10. Well, once he's done the runway, he's welcome to come and help out with my backyard...
  11. Sometimes the randomness of the posts I see on this forum make me go :raise_eyebrow: I'll keep an eye out for any sheep wandering about...
  12. Decca, however, had forgotten that Darky was the one with the hat, so naturally the audience would have already given all of their money to the quintet and would have none left for Decca and Planey...
  13. I've got 12.3 hours (going up quicker now I'm flying twice a week though, yay!)
  14. Like get completely lost? :big_grin: Don't worry guys, I know what you mean. :)
  15. Only 18 and already young Ditdah's memory is going...:stirring pot:
  16. I have a feeling he won't agree to a navex until I manage to land the bl**dy thing without his help at least once Plan for the future though :)
  17. What do you wonder young Tomo, I'm curious :confused: The Scarlet Rat?
  18. Thanks Sem. Now I just need to justify the petrol cost of the 4 hour round trip Maybe when I get my licence I'll do a nav up there...
  19. Does anyone know anywhere in Melbourne where I can book a trial Gyrocopter flight? I'm out to try as many different kinds of aircraft as possible and think these look rather funky.... I googled 'Gyrocopter Melbourne' but the only results I got were news articles about people dying in gyrocopter crashes (just what I want to know...makes me wonder if Gyros are actually safe?) So does anyone know of anywhere in Melbourne that has gyros?
  20. I'm with Destiny Flyer, completely hilarious but definitely not where I thought it was going!
  21. I like it when everything comes together and just works... (if that makes any sense) However with my landings at the moment, that isn't happening (gah) But yeah, when it all clicks :)
  22. Darky mused on the delights (or lack thereof) of being 'consistently destructive' and then realised it was a good thing she wasn't alone on this Subrolla, otherwise it would've been sunk ages ago. Darky then realised that, apart from her and (the newly 18) DitDot, the Subrolla (and the NES recently) was strangely empty. Had the rest of the crew been kidnapped or were they simply sunbaking up on deck??... Tune in next week for the next exciting instalment of The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy! Oh, wait...
  23. Meanwhile, as Ahlo restarted his rivet count, Darky moved from breaking wheels to breaking headsets...
  24. Well, what else was I meant to do, what if we go down and have to have an emergency picnic? :big_grin:
  25. Well I took it out to Peter at Moorabbin today It definitely has a problem...he said he'd never heard one make that noise before :raise_eyebrow: He thought the plates inside the earcups might need to be replaced, whatever that means! Wonder how long it'll take to get them repaired...
