    That sounds extremely economical to me, good for you. No incentive for you to ever own a plane then.

    Looked a bit like the 50Hertz dance my electrician friends describe.

    The cracking occurs because the lexan is such a good thermal insulator and the evaporating fuel chills the tensioned face of the curved sheet causing it to shrink even more which causes the cracking. I am thinking your friends put fuel on un stressed sheets or else the ambient temperature was much lower than in Australia so the temperature reduction of the evaporation became ineffective.

    Considering the app costs the same on android and apple, so when is the functionality of the android app going to start to approach the apple one? It is still extremely Lite for a premium priced app.

    What about a rod failure? You need some spring to open the throttle or it will be tiger taming time.

    Would the standard setup benefit form the gentle return springs?

    If he was taking off and landing at high altitude the accident would have happened at Guyra or Katoomba.

    Better outcome than the one spraying cane at Mackay a couple of days ago.

    Would you mind so much if you were floating around with the sharks and Melbourne was already tasked?

    My reference to "sausage factory" was inspired by the rush to offer VET Fee-Help funded courses, especially those offering laptop computers to disabled applicant who can't comply with course requirement, rather than any knowledge of training at RQAC. They had no trouble getting hold of the money, salting it away and going broke after paying the director's consultancy fees, long before the candidates passed their courses. All they get for their trouble is a $22,000 laptop computer.

    Even better, have you had a call from the administrators? If not What are they doing going down with the ship.

    You sound like just the bloke the administrators should be fast tracking to pump you out of the sausage machine so they can get their VET FEE-HELP money from the guvment.

    Was Martin Bryant an immigrant? I don't remember that being mentioned before.

    What flying future can a commercial pilot look forward to if he or she does seek help for depression, or if they have a medical condition that makes their medical unachievable. Even as a recreational pilot a diagnosed mental illness puts a load of extra hoops for you to climb through, for ever. Giving up the grog and changing my work life balance worked for me but it doesn't help a commercial pilot working in a company that is trying to maximise profit to the share holders instead of looking after it's people first.

    Thought that was blood on the floor but there is no crime scene tape so you must have got away with it.
