  1. No I meant for shaf's to give an example of the disparities - what are the numbers? just curious.
  2. Very nice. I remember having no troubles at all recovering from an incipient spin, but somehow I doubt that I could make myself go into one - that takes guts!! (assuming its on purpose and not inadvertent, in which case it takes lack of attention)
  3. now i know what it must be like driving behind me in my diesel land rover (cough cough)
  4. hah just wait till you solo - that thing will leap off there in half the distance! You won't need to speed that video up!!
  5. nice smooth landing there.. seemed like a really long takeoff roll though, hot day? had to laugh at all the flies in the cockpit, gotta wonder what they are thinking! wheeeeeeeeee!!
  6. I guess if you're going to shxx bricks, you may as well be on the ground!
  7. I guess to the untrained eye, it does look a bit like a hang glider wing with an engine?
  8. jet fuel toxic?? when did this start happening???
  9. wonder if he hung from the line then dropped on his back straight down? Best wishes for a speedy recovery, and hopefully the full story will come out.
  10. Welcome! 1. Sure, a Jabiru would be perfect for that (or any other) - once you have your recreational certificate (for RAAus, separate/different from the CASA RPL) and a passenger and cross-country endorsement, you can go anywhere in the country outside of controlled airspace! 2. 3. If you are after the certificate (not the licence), then all you require is a self-assessment form stating that you are of sufficient physical condition to operate a car. If you are going for the licence, you would be looking at a class 2 medical, and I don't think those check your hearing to any great degree - my DAME just whispered a few words across the room and I was able to hear it. If you are going for class 1, then yeah you have to do the thing in the booth with the headphones. Age is not an issue (at our age anyway) look into the differences between the licence and the certificate, as they are 2 different things - but either way they'd be perfect for what you want!
