......that if the rabbit skins had been treated with disagreeable-flavour tannins, then the fox problem wouldn't have occurred. Others in the AUF said that injuring lovely foxes was abhorrent and constituted animal cruelty, and would lead to picketing of the AUF HQ by the Fox Rescuers and Animal Liberationists. CT was heard to mutter under his breath that he'd like to deal with Fox Rescuers and Animal Liberationists just like he dealt with rabbits around YGDG (DG Internationational, in case you're not up with all the latest ICAO codes) - and that was viciously, from an aerial position of strength, and with a 12g, 2-3/4" chamber SxS Tonolini, and a box of BB's, thus instilling............

.....job of how to ensure the correct fur length for rabbit skins used for wing, tailplane and fuselage cladding, because fur that's too long only gives foxes the mouth-watering dribbles, and will result in the aircraft being ambushed by foxes on takeoff, resulting in some dramatic control movements designed to shake off foxes hanging off aforesaid components, and thus leading to...........

Apparently it's an American name to those who fall between ultralight pilots and having a fully-fledged PPL.

The way the aircraft was bouncing around on final looked like enough reason to do a go-around to me. But what would I know, I wasn't there, and who knows what pressure the pilot was under. He probably thought a cabin fire was going to break out any minute, and it was imperative to get on the ground.

The case will more than likely be settled out of court, pushed for by the State Govt, and the insurers of the company. Take the lesser amount of money now, or wait 10 years to see if you might get a bit more - after the class action funder has taken their 30%.

Of course it's true, the manchild wants his new toy, and he wants it NOW! Boeing should just give the plans to the Chinese, they'd have the aircraft finished in 6 months, and supply it at two-thirds the cost of the Boeing version - and the doors would stay on, on the Chinese one!

The hit looks pretty effective to me. What is possibly more interesting is the lack of air defences around a military base.

Boeing wouldn't be able to finish the aircraft on schedule, because the amount of gold DJT wants plastered all over the interior (enough to beat those filthy rich Arabs, of course), means they have to go back to the drawing board to figure out how they can keep it in the sky, with all that extra massive weight.

........recently discovered inability to outrun or outfly .50 cal slugs. This, according to paleontologists, is what led to the Moa becoming extinct. It also appears that cockfighting in ancient times was known, thanks to some cave drawings, and cockfights between Moas were apparently just as dangerous to the cockfight-watchers, as it was to the Moas. Turbo decided that the Moa would be an excellent name for a new Ultralight, projected to be built by Turbine Innovations in Aviation Inc. Just the idea of a sales pitch that could say, "buy a new TIA Moa and kick arse with it!!" really got Turbo sitting on the edge of his seat. Of course, the fact that Moas never even got off the ground seemed to be of no consequence to Turbo - but it certainly did to other managers in the company. "How are we going to get around the guffaws from prospective buyers and tyre kickers when they laugh about the aircraft never getting off the ground?", one was heard to say. "Just ignore them", said Turbo. "They laughed at the Wright Bros, too, and look at what they........................

The best material for dipsticks is black anodised aluminium strip or bar. This material is what is used in commercial fuel storage tanks - however, they utilise square extrusions, which would be too big for recreational aircraft fuel tanks. Watch out for powder coated finishes, they're not as durable as anodising.

It was a step too far, and too late for the Japanese. The Ki-83 was powered by 2 x 18 cyl Mitsubishi Ha 43 Model 11 engines (Ha 211 Ru), each producing 2,200HP. The engine was fuel injected, fan cooled and turbo-supercharged. But the engine was new, and unproven, and when put into operation, it was unreliable. It would've taken another year or two to get the engine even moderately reliable, and even then it was an enormously complex engine. The aircraft itself shows a lot of similarities to a Mosquito in its aerodynamics and profile.

I can't see where 1% ethanol would make any noticeable difference to fuel performance. The Fuel Standards Act also makes allowances for certain levels of other fuel ingredients - even water! Be aware that motoring fuel standards are just as much about limiting emissions, as they are about fuel quality or contaminants. Aircraft fuels do not have to meet any emissions requirements. At the end of the day, fuel quality from service stations is totally reliant on the servo operators and fuel tanker drivers fuel handling abilities, and the condition of their storage tanks. Many servos have old tanks, many have tanks that are subject to flooding. Condensation gathers in tanks and this produces rust, and rarely are either of these removed, the operators simply raise the pump suction spears above the level of the contamination. I recently vacated a factory unit that was integral with 11 other factory units, and a truck parking yard with a servo and workshop, as the landlady closed it all down for sale of the industrial land. The landladys employees sold off the remnant fuel (petrol and diesel) cheap, as the yard and factories closed. Then the employees advised me there was approximately 1500 litres of fuel left in the bottom of the tanks, that couldn't be extracted, as it was contaminated with water, dirt, and rust! The tanks had been there for probably 40 years or more.

You pick up interesting comments on many of the sites. A couple I read - one bloke is convinced the aircraft wreckage is located in one of the ravines in the upper reaches of the Wangat River or its tributaries. Another commenter says he sighted broken tree tops North of Burraga Swamp many years ago, whilst hiking with companions, looking for wreckage, and was convinced that it wasn't storm damage, it could only have been done by an aircraft crashing. One would think that if it was storm-damaged treetops, it would be over a wider area. A relatively small number of damaged trees in close proximity would indicate damage by an aircraft coming down.

Whenever the ground gets soaked - a rare event in the W.A. Goldfields - you have to re-appraise your hold-down method. In which case, the star pickets will probably prove a better hold-down system. The ground can go from concrete-like to extremely soft once it gets soaked, and that applies anywhere.

Well, it's obvious then, isn't it? - you've been a bad boy all year long!

Most Western Australian red dirt with moderate clay content sets like concrete in Summer. You're struggling to drive star pickets into it. I've found modified Hilti concrete bolts ("screw anchors") work for me, for anchoring items in hard W.A. ground in Summer. The Hilti concrete bolts normally require an undersize hole drilled into concrete, and the bolt them screwed straight in. But that's not practical in dirt, so I grind the end of the Hilti bolt to a taper, which assists in starting them into the ground. You drive them in with an impact wrench, and you'll need a minimum of 200mm length, probably 300mm is better. Slip a big heavy washer under the head prior to installing, and use a neat-fitting D-shackle under the washer as the anchor point. /_ui/package/100336/responsive/assets/images/logo_2016_sRGB.png HUS4-H screw anchor - Mechanical Anchors - Hilti Australia WWW.HILTI.COM.AU Hilti Mechanical Anchors - HUS4-H screw anchor - High performing hexagonal head screw anchor for fastening to concrete and masonry (carbon steel)

Is another screen to look at in a cramped cabin, advisable?

Brendan, this previous discussion from over 20 years ago produces a number of points to keep in mind. It seems there's a variance in teaching amongst instructors. Your instructor may be set on teaching offset backtracking, just in case another aircraft has a need for an emergency landing on your runway. In which case, one would expect some radio warning of the need to land immediately, but this is not always the case, either.

But bull rapidly escaped the Church and the Presbyterian Minister, and made his way back to a place where his desires really were still strong - an airstrip!! (long overdue avref). Bull sighted a lonely, dusty, and unloved-looking Jackaroo in a run down hangar, and his heart beat faster. Surely, that couldn't be the Jacka he once owned?

Well, that's exactly what I read all those years ago, too - so I wasn't imagining it. But I can't find any reference anywhere now, to that particular aspect of the story. There's repeated reference to three of the pax sailing an 18 metre steel-hulled yacht (the "Islay G") to the Whitsundays (from Sydney) for the aircraft owner, John Challinor. But the truth is, all four pax on VH-MDX were part of the volunteer crew on the Islay G, on its trip North to the Whitsundays. There were regular crew changes as the yacht went North, but all four pax - Ken Price, Noel Wildash, Phillip Pembroke and Rhett Bosler, were on the Islay G when it reached its destination, and none of the four have ever been identified as a bookmaker. Their occupations are identified as below: - Ken Price - former chief of the NSW Newcastle Water Police Noel Wildash - Company Director Phillip Pembroke - Nursing Home operator Rhett Bosler - Finance broker. This more precise information leads me to believe the story about a bookmaker on board, carrying "the days takings", is a total fabrication, quite possibly based on hearsay. Most interesting is the winess report by a farmers wife (now deceased) at Upper Rouchel, who reported that she went outside after watching the 7:00PM news bulletin (one would presume it was the ABC News, as the ABC was most likely the only TV channel available in the area), and who thought she heard "a tractor coming up the hill". She was shocked to sight an aircraft that flew directly over her head, "nearly close enough to touch". Note, this is not a witness report where they thought they sighted an aircraft or something, in the distance. This would have been around the time of the last radio transmission, where the pilot literally yelped, "5000!!" The townsite of Upper Rouchel has an altitude of approximately 250 metres (820 feet), but there's high terrain in the region ranging up to 1400 metres (4600 feet). Upper Rouchel is quite some distance West from the Barrington Tops, where the last radar trace indicated the location of the aircraft.
