They did a remake that was pathetic compared to the original. The Great Waldo Pepper and the Blue Max are two other good old movies. George Peppard learned to fly to do most of his own flying in the Blue Max. The lozenge camouflaged plane he flew in the movie is in Peter Jackson’s museum in NZ.

Yes, you gave the game away by including Biden. If you had just made it the Trump fund, I would have been convinced.

Simpler to just ask ATC for a wake-up call.

Given that a lot of people haven’t had any problems they have probably been fiddling with the code recently and broken it. Maybe they thought it was working too well, or perhaps they have reached their quota of Class 5’s. for the year. I hope they fix it soon.

I was talking to a friend yesterday who applied for her Class 5 recently and also got a notice to contact a Dame. Her Class 5 appeared on the screen but she couldn’t print it. She emailed CASA and they didn’t have an explanation but cancelled her application, refunded her $10 and told her to try again. On the other hand about 8 club members have got theirs previously without any problems so this IT issue seems to be a recent problem.

So what happens now? Are they going to fix the problem and send you the Class 5 or do you have to wait until they've fixed it and and apply again l?

Is CASA planning to let you know when their system is working properly again, or have they gone quiet.

I'm about to apply for mine. I know others on here have been through the process with no apparent problems, so I'd be very interested to know why your application ran into problems.

Very sad outcome. Local paper said it was a Zenith CH801.

I don’t think many would agree with that view, even those who have been affected by the problem.

Except when you’re pumping up the tyres.

Most of the potential `yes' respondents may not be able to.

If you think you are being rolled to the left by a willy-will or rotor rather than experiencing a wing drop due to a stall, it would be easy to apply the wrong correction.

No need. I was just amused by the English translation. One of the more memorable ones I've seen. Thanks for the video.

Was looking at the Screw Extractor Set but am a bit confused by the instructions. Maybe they need to do a uTube video: How to choose a correct screw extractor? Situation 1: If the stripped and damaged screws still has a hat (head), you can use single side screw extractor to remove it out, but other tools are needed, such as a drill bit, to drill a hole in the screw head. Situation 2: If you would like to remove the stripped and damaged screws without a hat (head), you can use double sides screw extractor to remove it out, firstly use one side (without thread) to drill a hole on the screw diameter, but you need to choose suitable size (0#,1#,2#,3#,4#), and then use the other side (with thread) to drill the damaged screw out. Both these two situations above need to use in reverse. Tips for using: 1. Firstly, using drill head to penetrate drill, be careful not to use the impact hammer gear, with the normal screwdriver gear. 2. Secondly drilling time to the slowest speed, there is a fixed speed with fixed speed, no in the end speed file a certain to be able to evenly rotate. 3. After the volley speed is stable and then aligned with the top of the screw center for a long time. Don't worry, be patient. 4. Then when you obviously felt drilled into and drilled for a while, and then for another. 5. The head rotates, puts the rotating head into the hole just drilled, presses and turns on the electric screws .It can be removed normally. 6. The whole process reverse operation!

Any chance of a having a 5 minute window to edit a typo without triggering an automatic "Edit:" comment? I can read my post three times before posting it and then pick up an obvious typo as soon as it's posted. It would be nice to be able to fix it without flagging an edit.

I wouldn’t be surprised if OzRunway’s best features turn up in Foreflight which eventually takes over, at least on iOS. Why would Boeing maintain two competing product lines when Foreflight dominates in the US.

It seems that OzRunways has been sold to Boeing who also own Foreflight, and Foreflight is now also approved by CASA for Australia. The local EFB market is getting a bit crowded. I wonder what that means for OzRunways. Edit: Already been noted in another post so ignore this.

Better than chainmail in a battle.

I was once coming into Port Lincoln from Aldinga in my weed-hopper ahead of an RPT aircraft also coming in to Port Lincoln. Not wanting to get in the way of his approach I contacted him and said I'd orbit out to sea until he was clear. He said thanks. A little while later he contacted me and told be to be aware of possible severe turbulence on downwind. I realised he was right when I nearly went through the canopy. Shows the value of being on the right frequency.

It’s 16.000 feet down, I believe, so 5,000m. I’d be surprised if they tried to recover it, even if it is her aircraft which is not at all certain at this stage.

The problem was that they couldn’t see Howland Island.

Maybe, maybe not. Time will tell. What happened to Amelia Earhart? Sonar images find what could be plane wreckage in Pacific Ocean ABC7CHICAGO.COM A sonar image shows what looks like an object shaped like an airplane, resting underwater within 100 miles of Howland Island, near where...

Same as mine except it was a C152 and 2009.

What engine are you using that produces 200+HP?
