  1. Bushbaby 500 from kitplanes for Africa.
  2. I thought an RPL did not cost per year, but requirement to pay for medical $75.00 unless you have extra stuff to test for. also BFR to be completed. should still need RAAus membership, and current Raa BFR to jump in numbers plane. i don’t think my RAAus is current due to not taking BFR on time, even though I fly around 50 hrs a year in VH rego. cheers clinton
  3. What’s better than owning 1 warbirds. Owning 2 stuck together. Got to love that sound.
  4. Hope it is going well for you Brent. Nothing more fun than getting back in the air. cheers clinton
  5. That’s not a lot of time from stoppage until the ground is there. Maybe time for some practice next flight.
  6. Hope he is Ok. Must be scary watching those houses and trees coming towards you with no other options.
  7. Why USA citizens only, is old tech now. Would be great with a fighter game installed.
  8. My brain hurts. Too much overload and too hot to go flying☹️
  9. I don't think anyone has made an accurate gauge, fuel flow meter measuring what has been used versus known quantity via accurate dip-stick or visually full tanks of a known capacity would be the best way of determining fuel remaining. cars, caravans and trucks are not reliable in tank gauges.
  10. Might just need the cylinder bolts tightening up a bit? Looks like it is all still there.
  11. Same here Bex, best of luck with the op and recovery, want to see your project at the end when you’re better. cheers clintonb
  12. Fire works and a helicopter ride, what could be more fun.?
  13. Just wondering if it is too cold to fly in the UK, missing looking at the interesting models Dominicm posts videos of.
  14. Got to be a few mines that need filling somewhere, just down the road is the hunter valley
  15. Fresh meat and Vegetables work well, funny that when there was less take away options on every corner and people ate at home we all seemed slimmer and more active. I’m only a seventies vintage and I do not recall seeing so many large people as now (including in the mirror)
  16. Our local storage dam had the wall raised a few years ago by 2 metres. It took away the road on the far side, increased the storage by 50%. But they did not think to dig out the millions of tonnes of silt from the shallow end whilst the dam was close to empty for 4 or 5 years. It appeared to be several metres deep even in the river entry end (judging by the original landscape shape). The increase in depth would have to be a gain better than surface area.
  17. I found the Man Challenge works in changing your mind set on food and works for a small input of exercise with no machinery/equipment. i have only gained weight back due to laziness (not spending 1/2 hr walking and 10 mins exercising each day) which I i now have to work harder at.
  18. :score 010:just like a gull wing mercedes
  19. Why is no-one ever around to see that perfect landing. Had a short local flight over the local recreation dam this arvo, which finished with a straight in greaser. Made the hour or so to get out of the hanger worthwhile.
  20. They are usually Impressed with early morning, no bump flights to the coast, not the roller coaster ride coming home too late in the day over the range. ( my experience has found this out, very green coloured passengers upon return journeys)
  21. Diamonds :))))))))))))))))))))))) For the wife that is And for the value of the experience along the way.
  22. Looks like perfect weather there at the moment. We are enjoying some rain and storms lately. Just wish they would come after beeer o’clock and give us some flying weather.
  23. Bushmaster conversion?
  24. I took a pic of this aircraft at Coffs Harbour with rego METAL, looked it up and found it to be morrocan rego. Quite sleek up close, my son loved it as one of his computer games has it as an option to fly.
  25. no pointing behind- there goes a bad guy! whoops.
