  1. I have always wondered why , Rotax motor's couldn't be slanted , ( as in above picture )to get a better look . That big exhaust on the side is off-putting. spacesailor
  2. The obscene salary of ' top ' C E Os in Australia ( $ 53 million P A ) leaves litle for ' shareholders ' to celebrate . ( not forgetting all thos junior Executive Officers ). The J E Os always vote for bigger pay increases , as they climb that corporate ladder . spacesailor
  3. I thought that designer, was silly to make such an ugly plane . spacesailor
  4. Perhaps tethered to a " Grand Zeppelin " . spacesailor
  5. Many thanks " skippydiesel " . No idea when my granddaughter will ever get enough time from her nursing job . She seems to be working long hours everyday of the week. Saving for her first house . spacesailor
  6. It failed in that " Titanic " submersible. spacesailor
  7. That's a problem for many, is the lateness of hearing about a fly-in / drive in . But , didn't we have a " topic " for " spare seats & flyin's " . spacesailor
  8. Those expensive lawyers , will be trading in their Bently sports cars for Toyota's. That will drop the price of their insurance. Novared lease companies will. Drop their car values too . spacesailor
  9. The new students, will have to do what the wealthy have always done !. Divest all personal assets . So they can become ' bankrupt ' . Then they can pay ' five cents on the dollar ' . Like one of my grandsons !, owns nothing , lives at his parents , And can't be bothered to sign on the dole . He has his trade certificate, but was threatened with court action when his Labourer dropped something, causing damage somewhere. Never worked a day since . what could they get out of him . spacesailor
  10. They cart the casualties away . Then, they die in hospital ,not out bush walking . spacesailor
  11. I was always told !, Sex Is the most deadliest pastime . Heart failure, diseases. Then try & dodge the angry husband . spacesailor
  12. Ear moffs & foam ear plugs , will not stop hearing damage . If the sound is in the 120 plus zone !. How do I know . I have industrial deathness. Can't hear sparrows, cicadas, and lots of spoken words . spacesailor PS : or , my cat calling for food . I just see her mouth moving .
  13. What is 'Arifmatik' , I only had a few years of ' terror edgukashun ' . Had to learn after 14. & 6months after skooling. spacesailor
  14. It was very loong ago . ( I was a teenager ) Just a verbal acronym for 100. Mph . Now we speak French , that ton will be 60 kph . spacesailor
  15. Loong ago !. When I was into motor-bikes the local club asked me to join. You only have to stand-up while doing the " ton " . ( 140 kph ) I chickened out spacesailor
  16. Or ! . Perhaps " spare seats " . spacesailor
  17. Subaru makes a very nice plane . .spacesailor
  18. I doubt RaAus will even think about the ' undesirable ' cheap aircraft . More high specs & high price , means more for their organisaItion . GA is their dream in a lesser organisation.. spacesailor
  19. 8.400 RPM Great for a ' ducted fan ' aircraft . It would make my direct-drive 36" HB prop , break the sound barrier, ! . So the exhaust whine wouls be none audible . spacesailor
  20. Save the kids charity's UK . Just under half a million Au dollars. The USoA even more . A pittance compared to Macquarie bank's CEO . The previous one got more than e $ 1 million a week . spacesailor
  21. I , had to learn that . & , Stop shouting . LoL spacesailor
  22. 20 shillings X 12 pence ? . I make it 480 halfpennies . Only one of 480 went to the starving recipients. Very bad charity there,. spacesailor
  23. Student pilot Some time ago, A ' global charity ' was caught out when the directors , were living it up and were driving Rolls Royce cars . in London UK. Of the 240 pennies in the pound collected, only one halfpenny went to the needy . That stopped any donations from everybody that I knew of. spacesailor
  24. The screams perhaps ! . spacesailor
  25. Who ?. SWMBO . spacesailor Please excuse .
