  1. Aside from the movie, bit disappointed with the whole incident. I am always hearing about the Captain (Sully) but what about the FO Jeff Skiles, you never hear about him much. It was not just Sully flying that aircraft !! Also the cabin crew was involved, seems all we hear is Sully the hero !

  11. The Dangers of the Sideslip in Light Aircraft Have a look at this video, ahhh no pilot in command seat hmm wonder if thats legal.
  12. Jeez I was wondering where that was leading to, thought it was some foot fetish. Cool video.
  13. I have flown to Yarram many times, a few things I have observed. Front of aircraft was destroyed, you can almost put this down to the rescue crews cutting it up. Next, the aircraft was well away from the runway and near the hangars. One wing was ripped off. So from this it seems there may have been a sudden wind draft under one wing that has forced the aircraft to roll and the pilot has failed to gain control. The aircraft has then cart wheeled and tore one wing off and maybe balloed before plunging. But these are just my observations.
  14. Thought that rego of the inbound bonanza rang a bell. It's the former aviation minister Gordon Rich-Phillips Hon. Gordon Rich-Phillips MLC | Member for South-Eastern Metropolitan Region > Home

  20. Not really, informative could advise you of something and helpful could mean you have helped someone do something. Ahh as I type that you may be right.
