I hope that Shell are declaring when they are selling ethanol spiked fuels in Tassie.

I've considered them a reliable supplier of untainted fuel (until now!)

Down here we have United fuel as well...wouldn't touch it with a barge pole...

Many pilots down here are testing fuel for ethanol....some surprising results as well...

Every pilot should know how to test the fuel they use for ethanol.

i reckon we need to have a 'take someone for a fly' day...it only needs to be a circuit.....

perhaps try it in your local community..?

g'day tt..another familiar name..

taildraggers demand a pilot who is proactive...not reactive!

..if it ain't right...do something about it!

gotta agree G...lots of potential out there..

i get the impression we miss out due to .."not getting a potential student, beyond the airfield fence".

..get them in an aircraft...and the addiction is started..

as pilots we need to encourage a 'non-pilot' into the air...ask yourself...did i fly to a flyin/meet with an empty seat beside me??....

if u did...it's time to change.

RAA are /would be on the cusp of an explosion in flying training...if....they got serious about it.

he's current now....3 touch and go's!

cooee and hello Andy!

I am continually concerned with the use of VG's on a (very ageing) fleet of Piper Cheiftains.

Sure they increase the MTOW....but...in a failed engine scenario..they are a recipe for disaster...increased drag ...less single engine performance..

reckon i have met Nelson in days gone by...........

...dont tell me about lung cancer....got my mum in 8 months.......

smoking is not cool......

sad to hear the news..........

i don't believe it....why havenent they a "I wanna say this" forum...with a caution ...enter at your own risk!!

i'm having trouble with political correct..........................its crap.

i had a message from a site owner to call him today...are u joking?...

starting to feel very isolated.

..ejected from another place and had all contributions wiped....only a few years of thought....gone..

being told that only happy thoughts are here.....i call a spade for what it is....can't do happiness....used to do advise....

reckon i'm gone from here as well.

Constantly Pulsing and My..'Es Constantly In Rowdy arguements!

...totally agree bas!

....hopefully 'kind' to refugees.........

sorry Pow..............
