  1. The collision was correctly posted back in October and has 6 pages of worthwhile data on it.
  2. ......he had a list of 15 recipients, kept him smiting for a month. He particularly smited OT repeatedly for his botched operation, and he smited his local coffee shop owner for putting up his prices and was rewarded with free coffee for life. He smit his car dealer and got a free Land Cruiser. He even smote the Bank Manager and was given a no interest overdraft for as much as he wanted. He smit the chick at the bakery but had to run................
  3. ......higher, then Turbo handed a grand to his local Father and wondered if the church needed a new roof and btw would the Father recommend his new Holy Water to the Pope and maybe he needed a new Chevy Corvette Popemobile and a week later the Pope had blessed the Holy Water and called it Nectar or Jesus, and the sales went through the roof. It paid for te Father to get a new two story church with gaming machines on the lower floor and the Pope to get his new Chevy and a Pope 1 aircraft to match Airforce 1, and ........
  4. Someone just plugged this prelim report here. The ATSB people will still be obtaining data at this stage so a lot could come up by the time of the final report.

  7. Woolies bags. It became a craze with 7 million Australians having the simple operation. The Medical industry advertised them with "Ever been caught short and found all the doors shut?" Always have a door open with L6. And then in the Supermarket....."Great news! We have replaced L6 plastic bags with Paper biodegradable bags which melt on contact with water. WOOLIES!

  9. So $10 mil on RAA and $5 mil = $15 mil? Sounds in the ballpark depending on the airfield environment, flying over suburbs etc.
  10. I haven't been watching recent cases so thes figures are only rough guesses: While the RAA insurance may cover you for killing someone or makinh someone a paraplegic, aquadripleic + legal costs used to be around $14 million so you would need to buy a top up to cover that. Also there's a wide variety of risk. If you are flying out of your own property strip, never carry passengers, and don't allow people near the airstrip and aircraft, then you'd expect the risk to be low. If you fly out of a busy airport with people milling around airside, gliders stopping on the strip with people on the strip and chatting within a few metres of active powered aircraft and on multiple and conflicting strips, the odds are that someone will forget a safety item and be responsible. If you don't take the VFRG seriously and don't bother to fly a correct circuit, you could be in a place that someone else hits etc. and that's your negligence. If you fly out of an RPT Airport the aircraft usig it are so dissimilar that an airprox is a common risk and the payout if you are negligent (as in make a mistake or forget something rather than doing beat ups), could be in the tens of millions. So it's worth looking at your level of risk rather that just going along with blanket numbers.
  11. You were a moving target for the GM system. You needed a part now, but the dealer parts guy was trying to help you offering to get one from another dealer or State warehouse. If you had asked the dealer to get the Brisbane dealer to put the part on Hold for you it would have been held for you to pick up on arrival.
  12. The Australian Public Liability system allows an aggrieved/injured party to sue someone alleged to have breached his/her duty of care in a Civil Court which hears the merits of the case, or the parties can settle out of court. Fairly straightforward.
  13. PL insurance is not just for a passenger. Someone could walk into a prop, You could run up the back of another aircraft, you could drop an insecure panel or prop etc. Anything where someone could be hurt or killed because you didn’t discharge your duty of care.

  16. 120 cars, 40 events on one night is a single event. You tell the insurer exactly what will be happening. He may decide to include it in the annual subscription.
  17. I'll get a box too; it would be so much easier to write a story.
  18. Thread drift.
  19. The story ran out of gas long ago.

  21. Probably best to email your Serial No to the factories. A lot of different versions, improvements were introduced at that time.
  22. What have you got to say relating to Sport Pilot?
  23. .......the same time meeting the local Corporations and buying their land off them. The sweetener was always a penthouse on the Gold Coast for the Elder. There was some argument after the Elder and the boys arrived at the 1950s dog boxes that were the penthouses of the day, but Turbo currently owned 68% of Australia. The problem was wearing a suit, and he decided to have his tail amputated after being assured he could get a prosthesis. The operation .......
  24. WS00357.pdfOur automotive Industry measures itself on percentage market share. The key figure for trends is the Jan-Dec 12 month market share. Less than 5% and the make/model is heading for closure. These are current market share figures ending with the 2023 year. 2024 year for all these countries will take until about May. This source is from people in various contries contributing on Wikipedia. Note the latest puffery of combining BEV (Battery Electric Vehicles) with PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles) Although PHEV produce CO2, they are removed from the "nasty" lists of ICEV, plus add a handy increase to promote "Electric" vehicles. Similarly we are yet to go to analysis of Real emitting vehicles because "Countrywide" averages are used. In the USA there are states which will be on 100% coal-fired power for the long term future so BEV in those states don't save CO2. If we split out PEV into BEV and PHEV the big increases are for PHEV. Referring to this chart; It shows the result of Germany's problem in getting renewable energy to meet Peak demand. The UK is committed to banning all ICE vehicles soon but that poor market share means that it has passed the point of no return where it can start selling a 100% market share in time. (Because of the difficulty for manufacturers changing the tooling and lines). Italy for some reason is going backwards.
