Reckon he'd get the schitts if I cut him off on base?!

I'm rather partial to just landing the thing without all the wooptie doo. Might have to fly as tight as a fish's ring sometimes or extend out on a cross country downwind on others. It's all part of the fun IMHO.

Onya DBI.

He should be charged with living an active and adventurous life and then taken out the back and shot...

It's pretty straight forward. The closed thread has diverged way beyond the original topic and export/importing the wayward posts between appropriate forums is not practical.

What is with these billsh!t claims of being moderated?

...reading fine works by authors of renoun. "Closest to a grass roots I ever got was a tussel with a bushpig at the Barcaldine B&S back in 82" commented.....

Fair chance that if a grass roots driver was to go annoy the bejezuz out of a heap of people and then splaticate in front of them they'd quickly learn that they've not been forgotten at all.

Yeah, it's not going to be easy....

There wasn't really much more to said about that thought Lox as he'd always had a suspicion that RatSac never got enough. But as for Turdbro, well, he was always knee deep in.....

"No, no, go back to the fishnets story" interupted Lox, "Did they have a bulk deal and what's the conversion rate between F'nQld and Oz currency like?" "And are they edible?" added ElRatSac who had taken to gnawing on....

Old mate has brought a world of hurt down upon himself and there is three parts of stuff all that RAAus should be held accountable for. That is unless RAAus were holding a gun to his temple and forcing him to go fly in that manner of course. There you go DBI!

Thanks both Johns.

Re the rego issue, we've all been good lads and ladettes and have our rego cards displayed in the nice little clear plastic sticky things so that we can quickly see if it is out of date haven't we?!

I recall 20AA and 20AB of the act were mentioned and have a vague recollection that the charges stuck. Too many brain cells VB'd into submission to be certain. Might have to wait to see if iggygooglebot can dredge something up. Certainly looks like it sux to be 'ole mate'.... Edit: Disregard, found a newspaper link. He copped $17,500 in fines; http://fw2.dailytelegraph.com.au/travel/unlicensed-pilot-kenneth-william-acton-flew-unlicensed-plane-to-airport-without-clearance-to-catch-commercial-flight/story-e6frezhr-1225787289321

Can anyone recall what ended up happening to the bloke that got pinged for fly unregistered/unlicensed up near Cairns? Did he end up doing the time?

What's to investigate?! There's no carny ride or rivet line to confuse where the problem lay.
