Funny parallel, when I was in Ho Chi Min City the locals still call it Saigon. -

Renewing Blue Cards annually has required the applicant to report any Crimes etc by the applicant which may effect their qualification for the card. Teachers receive their invitation to renew each year which states if they do not renew and continue their activities that require them to hold the card, they will be liable to prosecution. Just a money grabbing activity.

https://www.carsales.com.au/editorial/details/norways-electric-car-mix-rises-to-54-per-cent-128023/ While other Nations provide tax incentives to Electric vehicle purchasers Australia (Victoria) wants to tax EV's per km. Wrong attitude.

In 1942 My Dad was transferred from Adelaide River not long after the Bombing of Darwin to the Kurnell area to act as a Turk in the "40 Thousand Horseman". Better than being strafed and bombed for a few months.

135kg in 4 Batteries /4 = 33.75kg ea. Interesting what the voltage and AmpHr is. I just swapped out a 100AH AGM at 32kgs for a 100AH Lithium 10kgs in my camper and installed a new Battery Management System. (Not making any comparison between my AGM and the aircraft Batteries) theoretically simply weight comparison with Lithium could see 1350AH at 12v. Mass may be an issue.

Foxbat oops at Casino this morning 26/3/21
Cosmick replied to Kyle Communications's topic in Aircraft Incidents and Accidents
I actually like the Gossips, get it from Dan's about $24 for 6 bottles. They have red and white wines in all types i.e. Shiraz (my choice). Best thing no hangover. -

The 3-4 pilots looking on may be ex council workers -
Hi Mark, With a stated Vc of 120mph = 104kts for the 912ULS would you expect cruise with the Big Bore Kit around 115kts. (Titan 180hp equiped is stated at Vc 155mph (135kts).

I have a mate who left Air Services 4 years ago so this has been brewing for a while. The mindset here is the same as Individual solar to increase renewables. Primary radar only has limited range and is very expensive to setup all over the country. Initially ASA considered it cheaper to subsidize Transponders/Grant for ALL users to be a much cheaper option so secondary radar could do the job. For some reason the subsidy option has stalled but as it was once considered may be a push in that direction may succeed.
