  1. Mark, Do you need the original back wall in the baggage area to protect you from rocket blast if the rocket is deployed?

  3. 4 passengers from Inverell was quite common, end result no RPT service.

  5. Or just the bridles for a chute pack.

  7. Pots and Kettles?

  9. My cowling was the last of the gel coat ones. I think the change was a mistake. They must be chasing minimum weight but where is the point if you have to use a kilo of bog to get a surface fit to paint.

  11. Always room for another junk wannabe.

  13. There is a short video on aerokits.net.au website home page of the VG landing across my strip with 5 kts of headwind, 18 m landing roll. Savannah VG is a very special case, S/XL models are not quite so capable.
  14. Rego G-4848 shown on the video on channel 9, but the rego doesn't change the result. We have still lost another brother, too many!
  15. When I first joined these forums many of the members described their flying, or the flying they aspired to as "low and slow". haven't heard nearly so much of it lately, I thought it must have been going out of fashion, surely they haven't all crashed.
  16. http://www.9news.com.au/national/2015/08/09/13/07/aircraft-crashes-south-east-of-melbourne has a photo of the type involved.
  17. Just as there were representatives of the all countries who had citizens on the manifest.
  18. Hope the trailer has nice soft suspension, it would be a shame to shake a beautiful new airframe to bits dragging it around looking for somewhere different to launch.
  19. http://www.9news.com.au/World/2015/08/08/02/21/France-hunts-for-more-MH370-debris Interesting that we have searched for 17 months at a cost approaching $100 million, yet the froggies are going to search for one week then draw their initial conclusions. Seems very efficient to me.
  20. But the price is appealing, such a high price though!
  21. Pilot and pax ok. http://www.dailymercury.com.au/news/pilot-and-his-pooch-survive-crash-landing/2724064/
  22. Only thing that is certain, if one roo got through there will be others and the hole in the fence will be getting bigger.
  23. Too many of us don't know what we don't know. I think the CFI conference system may be the beginning of the solution, if the sub standard schools rub shoulders with the real ones, they may either give it away or lift their game.
  24. Maybe they just assume it was written off at it's second last lolly drop.
