    and go full screen! F/A-18C goes supersonic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yh7QSMrdsA Those that didn't hit replay may post below.

    Don't live in a country run by corrupt black Africans?

    Ah, brings back memories (retired rocketeer)! More spectacular than some of my failures though.

    Yes the other point is how would you know what a "small government" country is like Marty, must be getting towards a century ago for Australia? Spending and regulation (size & power) goes up regardless of party - they have the party, not us.

    Do you have a link JEM? The only possible site I could find was down.

    Having just come back from a busted-ass communist country I'm sure you would enjoy the wonderful alternative to the market economy Marty. And let's be clear this IS the alternative and it has ALWAYS failed. The grinding poverty would save you from fretting about the quirks of Queensland politics or the possibility of ever owning an aircraft.

    Are modern jets too automated to fly?

    Imagine CASA (AKA the Grinch) doing a clip like this....

    Fabulous girandola, I love it!

    Tragic story, poor young girl lost her family in a night crash apparently after an engine out.

    Oh the intensity stats disprove facthunters assertion even more starkly. The mythical 'global warming' actually gives us less tropical storms plus also overall less intense: Of course some folk would prefer to instead accept their insurance companies lame excuse for another premium increase. Because global warming (or Abbott) can be used to excuse absolutely anything.

    Hunt for the facts if you are interested Nev. No point me posting OT links here that anyone can easily find but here's one example from American Geophysical Union:

    As Maj says the wild tropical storms have always been there. People informed by the media would think they have been increasing but in actual fact global measured weather data shows a slight decrease over the past few decades.
  15. Gnarly Gnu
    Yes! Actually he used the new embrace-all term 'climate change'. A useful modern explanation for anything and everything.
  16. Gnarly Gnu
    According to Air Asia boss it was due to global warming.
  17. Gnarly Gnu
    Is that like a horse stall?

    "Skytrans lost its government-subsidised routes" retarded socialist government (both brands same-same); over-regulate until things are unaffordable then respond by subsidising them.

    That's interesting poteroo, I was in a commercial flight not far from this area at the exact same time this aircraft disappeared. Although I didn't hear about it till much later I was wondering why our flight had made a diversion over eastern Indonesia then later resumed the original track.
  20. Gnarly Gnu
    Yes they are stuck in the biplane era.
  21. Gnarly Gnu
    Fabulous photos!

    What's it all about?

    It's a union run site, they hate the Australian defence force.
  24. Gnarly Gnu
    Why not, Kevin Rudd based policy on tweets from twitter. You don't think they are stupid enough?

    I want electric powered aircraft to work also but it isn't... for the moment the low oil price has crushed it and in the longer term not until the long awaited major battery breakthrough becomes a reality. As prof John Torode told us the standard lithium ion battery currently used quite literally has a lower energy density than household garbage has.
