Puppy dies in overhead locker on United Airlines flight.
Gnarly Gnu replied to red750's topic in US/Canada General Discussion
Surely only a third world airline would allow animals in the cabin. -
Elon Musk Flight to Mars ?
Gnarly Gnu replied to boleropilot's topic in Aircraft Incidents and Accidents
The vehicle will survive long after he goes broke. I get hucksters calling me to invest in Tesla "have you heard of this company?", I tell them unfortunately I know too much about it and would get an equal return plus some warmth from setting fire to bank notes. -
Welcome Shiv! Tell us about flying in India...?
-
Goodness folks, such bathos. This guy is a serious builder....

Newbie Aussie rekindling the passion.
Gnarly Gnu replied to Bazooka's topic in Just Landed - Welcome
Welcome Baz! If you're looking GA I'd suggest going with a Vans. Might seem too vanilla but the kits and support are outstanding for a first build this is important, a less common / specialised build could easily take twice as long. -
Increased security at regional airports?
Gnarly Gnu replied to Bruce Tuncks's topic in Governing Bodies
Well it seems reasonable that regional RPT aviation security should be at least on par with interstate passenger bus service security for example. Wait, what's that...? -
Hundreds almost killed in Cessna!
Gnarly Gnu replied to bexrbetter's topic in Aircraft Incidents and Accidents
I blame global warming. Or possibly Tony Abbott, they are similar I'm told. -
The inference being "haha, that's good" right? RAA being on our side, member organisation and all.... Why don't they help by printing a list of these fascist run airports we should avoid?

As are the womens sheds.

Yes, welcome to the new Left-stralia. Even Chinese people I know laugh at the number of laws we have. With the proles like the refueler that ask for your ASIC ask them to firstly show their ID - both ASIC and drivers licence - and photograph them with your phone.

In this day and age I suggest it's probably not the best to joke about this sort of stuff on a public forum (especially in a country that has no constitutional freedom of speech). And no lion jokes either, very offensive.

Well the recent migrant cultures frequently tend to get their way by going nuts and breaking things, government apparently only responds to goat herding third world activism. Technique now adopted by 'antifa' but with limited success as they lack the culture.

Wanted: Local supplier for .4mm plywood
Gnarly Gnu replied to rtfm's topic in Aircraft General Discussion
0.4mm is very, very thin, a single veneer is usually 0.5mm so the price is no surprise. You could call around the timber / board importers but that thickness is quite a speciality item. -
If you rarely need it then you could print you own ID card and wear it, it's quite cheap to do. If you are asked, no you don't have an ASIC but you have a ID card with you photo on it plus other ID available. Then if asked why no ASIC refer to the rules which state only required for frequent access and that you rarely visit (info is on this forum). If you believe they are likely to demand it call ahead and tell them no ASIC so they are required to escort you. Wow that brings back memories! Not any more of course, a more docile and supine group of sheep you would scarcely find.

A Lion! That's nasty no? Didn't see that bit, I'll go back and have a read. Anyone know how this poor chap is doing? Is he healing OK?
-
Yes, if the injury is minor as implied this is a good outcome & one to be happy about. I wish him well! It's sad there are so many head injuries in light aircraft accidents, really need better design / cushioning / head protection. Something that was largely sorted out in motor vehicles decades ago and further improved since.
-
Was it you in this Skyfox accident Teckair? Or just stroppy about the zoo comments? ...Hope you are OK.
-
Gotta love their humour, both are a crack up; worth it just for that The seem good for GA, but not going to include AU regulations of course.

Hello from a Groppo Distributor in Aus
Gnarly Gnu replied to Groppo Australia's topic in Just Landed - Welcome
Great! Love that Peri-Peri... -
Well a beeper is rather last century, needs a smart monitoring system with emergency auto-lower. But yeah, CASA would probably block that.

There was quite a detailed flight test in Kitplanes magazine a couple of years back.

If you eat pizza found out you can't trust Dominos pizza online ordering website, their email list was either hacked or they sold the info to spammers.... CC payments MAY be safe but personal (name, suburb, email) info isn't. You should put in a bogus email address if you use it.

Well your house was OK thank you Marty, but I noticed you didn't let me use your plane
