... and it had the makings of such a good conspiracy story.

Dunno nuthin' about it.....

Here's a link to the NPRM for the proposed changes to CAR 166 Civil Aviation Safety Authority - NPRM 0908OS - Carriage and use of Radio and Circuit Procedures at, or in the vicinity of, Non-Towered Aerodromes

'Twas probably 'cuz 'collection of old beer cans held together by 3 million rivets and powered by a sewing machine motor', didn't fit in the space available...:black_eye:

..Hadn't really thought about them Peter... i_dunno I suppose that with some surgery and a bit of intense therapy they'd be able to get that silly looking grin off their faces....:ne_nau:

Marty, First and foremost, good on you for making your post. It's good to see 'the other side' of this discussion presented in an open and honest manner. No offence intended, but that turn really did make me hope that the pilots were up to the task that they had set themselves and to start plotting where they were likely to end up if it went pear shaped. Apart from that, those little radials sounded lovely. Cheers!

.."%#$&! i h8 txt cz its 2 hrd 2 udrstnd..." :confused: The Rat's cunning subterfuge had almost worked....:ah_oh: "Just who's name is actually on those lady Killa of the year nominations you've got stashed away there TextRat?" sherlocks probed i_dunno, his suspicions alerted after witnessing the smooth talking Dikka :ilmostro: weaving his magic amongst the ladies:polite: at NatFly...

"Aus Kosh" is catchy, with in aviation circles, but would probably draw the interest of trademark lawyers.

Geoff, I am not aware if the formation fly past was a sanction event or not. I observed the event from the commercial display area approximately halfway down 18. I am not aware of the traffic density in the circuit or of any CTAF transmissions that were broadcast at the time. I observed a turn made by two aircraft flying in close proximity, presumably to conduct a fly past along 18, that gave me cause to contemplate the likelihood of a collision between those two aircraft. I did think it an odd sort of thing to do considering the locusts and the varied mix of traffic types and skill sets that would be expected at NatFly. As an after thought, airfield movements are suspended for the duration of an aerial display and no part of the display is conducted overhead of the public areas when Temora museum holds flying days. Dunno what else to make of it, apart from people do weird things...:ne_nau:

...Look Ma, I caught a grass hopper! Can I keep him?"....

They did it!! Took VH-BIKe on a quick IFR run over to YTEM late this arvo (the beercan isn't night rated) and I'm happy to report that, They did it!! a wallaby kit assembled in four days! Well done the team. :thumb_up: Oh yeah,... someone needed an NES fix as well....:raise_eyebrow:... sad really...

Next time use the park brake.... Storchy Neil attempts some percussive reinforcement ....

I don't think you would be doing beat u.... sorry, a series of missed approaches in a loose formation though HH. Agree with Nev. This mustn't become the usual GA v's RAA bun fight that seems to follow on after a fly-in event.

BREAKING NEWS ============ News just to hand from the Temora bureau; A well known forum identity has been implicated in a string of break, enter and smile incidents at the airport in the rural township of Temora NSW over the Easter long weekend. Sources have reported that attendees of a national flying event being held at the town were astounded at the prowess of a lanky kid with a Queenslander's accent at retrieving keys from locked vehicles at the weekend. "He just cobbled up something from a bit of fencing wire and an old car battery and the next moment he was in!" exclaimed a stunned BMW owner. "If I'd known he was about, I wouldn't have bothered with calling the NRMA." commented another witness visiting from Munyablah. "He had such a lovely smile" added local CWA president Pearl Whitely. Authorities are eager to investigate whether the suspect, dubbed theGrin, had an accomplice in the alleged events but are waiting to interview the suspect when they can pry him away from the Wallaby building project. In other News, Formation flying drama unfolding as protests being made by sensible aviators astounded at such silly bugger antics.

Sounds perfectly flash to me. :thumb_up: And the best bit is that it's all yours!:big_grin:

...have a wet J120 contest!" :cool_shades:agreed JatzLock, for the benefit of those who missed the point :rolleyes1: of #3824 ....

To bed with you young JabTalker and trip safe be having. :thumb_up: CYA Friday

McLoch whinced in pain from the second strike to his nethers by O'Dalby, champion :man flying:of the young enthusiasts :thumb_up::big_grin: and scourge of the nefarious :hittinghead: "Get your eyes off her curves and svelt shape." :no no: he warned. "And no smart comments about how good she would have looked, all wet from that shower :heart:.... ......And stay away from me mum TOO!.....

... and a large bag of ice.:run:(<<this little bugger moves too quick,:ne_nau: but he'll do.. ) "Surely, it's a bit of a stretch to call a blob of old ice cream containers and an overlocker motor an aeroplane. :rolleyes1:" sniped Loch painfully in his freshly acquired falsetto....

"Didn't think a bloke could inhale so much and so quick!" as he watched the dust settle. O'Loch stood frozen in place. Mouth agap and eyes watering...

...fib that he was about to tell. :raise_eyebrow: "Relaxy MrsTomo'sMum." continued fullOf'ItLock as he tossed a cupfull of avgas onto the smouldering remains. :raise_eyebrow: "The fire is mainly to keep the crabs away, but we use it for making the occassional cuppa too. "But there's no crabs this far inland?!" :scratch head: scoffed MrsTomo'sMum. :confused: "The fire must be working then..." replied ahlow as he heard the distinct clack of bricks :ah_oh: from behind him....

:cool_shades:"Ahhh!" realised Locksley "...so it's a 120 seconds from go to whoa then?! " he smirked as he recalled that young blokes go about things, like a bull at a gate."() "You can't be rushin' (:cool_shades:) into these things Maaate!" mentored Merv as he tried to explain the finer points of life to the youngster. "So you've got to stop using the stick for speed" :Disappointed: DitDah :big_grin:ed and then :blush:ed as figured he'd been .... ========== Added a bit for a double gotcha!...:devil:

....individual pieces of plastic melted together to form my titillating tupperware transport....

Dearest RatCeo, The suggested inclusion to regulations would necessitate additional inclusions such as "Here, hold my beer" and "who put you in the damn thing anyway" The regulation is to be enacted to put the :big_grin: back into light aircraft flying. (pending the outcome NESIO investigations. :uhoh2:) Your etc etc, Loch Tzrapp Regulator. P.S you spelt 'legs' wrong in your last post....()

"Hello, Dalby Escorts.." "G'day, :big_grin: I'm flyin' down to Temora with me mum :heart: for the weekend :thumb_up: and I need an escort :DevilDog:for the trip." :big_grin: "Really! :raise_eyebrow: so what do you have in mind, sir?" "Well, I was thinking of big hefty ones with machine guns and helicopters for a couple of days.." :thumb_up: "Oh! that might be a little difficult to organise on short notice sir,.... ..could I interest you in our half hour special with Roseanne:spruce_up: in a maid's outfit instead?" DitDah Blushed, almost stopped grinning, and realised that ....
