  1. And Soylent Green was a biscuit made out of people. Classic Charlton Heston
  2. I have played DSotM, The Wall and Wish you were here a million times in my life. Got some new Bose Headphones recently and have discovered more hidden lyrics - Wow
  3. A false alarm is not a situation that may have gone but didn't and if able should be canceled ASAP. If a misuse of equipment then a steep fine should apply.
  4. Sad to lose a good friend Frank. Condolences to family and friends.
  5. Like most open cockpit flyers I have been frustrated with Comms especially radio communications. Have recently been trialing Sena Motorcycle comms buitl into the helmet with radio interface for UHF and VHF and WOW it actually works very good. All wireless the bluetooth intercomm works up to 2km. Paired to iphone and due to very good noise cancelling Siri works and calls are clear at both ends. HD music if you want it and it works great and ive got a 503 within 12 inches of my head. there is a chap in SA who has created aviation packs. I wont advertise him here but if you want his details PM me. (how is that any different).
  6. Lovely specimen at Caloundra
  7. Imagine the cockpits with large screens set up for virtual reality bombing runs or Carrier Landings.
  8. Up or back, bit of a dog leg but Watts is having a Breaky. Weather at this stage looks good.
  9. In this recent video in the MTOW increase thread, Linke talks about CTA and MTOW from 15.00 and Medicals from 23.00. They will never abandon "Drivers Licence Medicals" for RAA membership so I would say that includes the new group G up to 1500kg and CTA. RAA MTOW increase?
  10. Yeah, my only concern was for long road trips, kangaroos and idiots.
  11. yeah it is in a locked shipping container, they wanted the container to be locked in a shed
  12. Pilot dies in light plane crash in Tasmania's north-west
  13. Not the same but similar, read through might assist. Private airstrip access
  14. Make sure you check out the Video Will paid sex breaks boost Sweden's fertility rate?
  15. Think about the response you want when you make THAT call. Do you want a professional at the other end giving you the attention required. Listening to your condition and location OR being over transmitted by someone doing circuits. Multi com within 10nm same as CTAF otherwise area FULL STOP. All unmarked strips Multicom.
  16. Not knowing if in the right or wrong, the Lame's in this case who conducted very recent maintenance would be very concerned about any possibility of mechanical cause.
  17. Had me guessing there Mick, thought ya might have been slightly concussed from a heavy load on your 454's. I think only a minor drift but relevant as all about affordability. Now popularity, PG and PPG very popular as cheap, Hang Gliding well many here started that way, last year saw 80 of em lots of them kids towed up for a comp at Dalby. If something cheap and green were to become available in 3-axis might see more interest.
  18. I think the age gap is too large recreationally. Only young 3-axis students I see have a career in mind. Flying with oldies is not that attractive to them. Face it if we are doing a trip to the Rock we have to plan stops for our Bladders not necessarily fuel. Most young flyers look to Hang Gliding and Para-Gliding for our shared thrill. They will most likely migrate to 3-axis later in life.
  19. Momentum .............. Calls for Archerfield Airport safety check after Melbourne tragedy
