    The pockets of damaged trees are normal in dense bushland. If you take a look on Google earth at the mountain ranges north of Gippsland in Victoria you'll see the white "Stags" - trees that were snapped in isolated pockets of wind. with the bush right up to them untouched. If you compared this to the Barrington Tops and they were free of Stages, but there was just the one damaged area that's been reported then that would carry some weight.

    .......the Diversity Act of Tasmania and was accosted by 6 sets of identical twins. There used to be a law in Australia that it was mandatory to carry a firearm in any aircraft carrying an animal, but it was rescinded after too many pilots shot passengers, so bull was restricted to giving gutso a good cuff under the ear, but the angle didn't make it easy to get his hand out of the way and gutso bit him on the piggy to market finger. bull ........

    ........didn't forget gutso when he graduated. He made gotso a little seat behind his head rest with a blood red five point harness just like his own. Perhaps bull should have thought this through; gutso was named after his habit in the Bone RSL of scooping up any scraps falling from the tables and sometimes those scraps had been through the digestive tracts of merry makers. gutso seemed to be enjoying the climb out of the airport, with little yaps at the passing clouds, but 40 minutes later right in the middle of a barrel roll he went for the Big Chuck. The rotating aircraft sprayed undigested pieces of steak and a yellow liquid all over bull who ......

    Red Bull, although some got confused and called him their Blue Bull, Pink Bull, Yellow Bull etc. He bought himself an Extra and started taking lessons from a real pilot, a real instructor who for this story has to be disguised. We'll call him the Wingman. Wingman showed him how to hold ..........

    .....inability to identify which way to push the stick to correct things like spins, sporran dives and sh!t so he kept on showing it all over the place until he'd fluttered down low enough to land. Suited bull so he'd never bothered to change it and of course ........

    Good, thanks; someone else did what I recommended for you; looked the regulations up and provided them for you. It's not that hard.

    Well he got you in for a start. The character will be referring to any regulations like that before his first solo on an airstrip without taxyways or before first navex with a landing involved. In either case the student has to refer to regulations whether there are 9.56 million or not.

    .....sky effect at that exact altitude. [congratulations to Cappy for recognising the "Hinkler Layer"]. bull, it has to be said has paid the price for staring longingly into the eyes of Mavis at the Bone RSL, while Mavis fought him off with batch after batch of pancakes, night after night. The Jacka, like most untralights, had to operate 40% over its MTOW. The Jacka would handle the takeoff quite well, but when it hit the Hinkler layer it would start skipping - a climb of a few feet then an incipient stall. bull would...........

    .....a voice in with that squeaky, grovelling Perth accent, explaining as he picked up the nuts with the cable hoist; "We check them for correct axis of elasticity and granular direction". Using a 5 lb hammer he tapped each nut. Some needed just two taps, some needed three, and one needed five. "Here you are" he said toi bull, "good as new", but bull knew they were better than new and resolved to buy a 5 ln hammer when he goy home. But .........

    .... the nut problem. What he didn't know was that EP had been short of students for some time after scaring half of them by lesson three. He wasn't prepared to lower his standard of training so he resolved the problem by importing cheap students from China. Of the ones he imported every second one didn't want to work and those who did often stopped halfway through the lesson, but they paid big monet and EP was able to buy a new Satin Blue flying suit every season, so he wasn't going to tip a bucket on the Country which had made this possible and he suggested the nuts had been poorly serviced, which ........

    In the hundreds of online discussions, some highly skilled navigators pooled information from the radio transmissions, second by second, position reports, ATC records etc. and over time I think the area decided on is not unreasonable. The crash area has been described as double canopy, so when anything falls in the net view through the canopies is going to be pretty much closed again. The ground parties have gone in well informed but the problem is they've only been able to search minute pockets due to the rough terrain.

    ......an understatement because the engines had failed, and bull had to tow it the last 63 Nm with a rope between his teeth. When the mechanics checked the engines they found 32 big end nuts had cracked. The nuts had been supplied by Golden River Co, a subsidiary of Hoo Boi Co. bull was not amused .........

    .....plastic bags and sell them in the markets in competition with conventional trawlers like bull's. However bull had issued a world-wide press release explaining what Bovear does to the reproductive organs of little children and men. Withing a few weeks bull was needing the trawlers he'd ordered plus another six, and ...... NES News Item: The current fad in the Cattle and Dairy industries where feeding the animals with Bovear to reduce CO2 production has passed on some nasty diseases from the milk and meat and will be yet another headache for Albo to deal with in 2025 along with Tania P.

    If you want to do a little searching, you'll find the reports from several well organised and financed parties, where they went and what they found (but not MDX).
