  1. apart from the rock throwing (all directions) ............ thanks Brendan - somthing to note .......... could be the answer - lets ask some flight schools and see what they say about how they treat any insurance excess - and post
  2. yes ......... interesting to see the delicious cigarettes @ 10.24 ................ while having dinner
  3. we all must be nuts talking about the mechanics of legislation But Turbo does raise the point that any new rule re registration could financially benefit some persons and not others ......... and should be announced correctly
  4. and the data says (numbers rounded) * 70 c dents per 100 miles (fuel) * 40 miles per gallon (fuel) * means that fuel was 28 cents per gallon ? * cigarettes and ashtrays were probably a minimal cost to the body back then
  5. .............. IT crowd - friendface ............
  6. last photo looks squased - a bolbous canopy
  7. and this ............... I assume
  8. true BD ............. but its always advantageous to discuss the absurdity of things (if seen as absurd) something good might come of it by their nature - bureaucracies must go there (either required, not required, willingly or reluctantly)
  9. 1. interesting pint skippy - you are saying - with a PPL or CPL you could do a touch and go at Sydney international airport ......... and you would not need an ASIC card ? 2. in that instance ......... does the legislation say you need an ASIC card ?
  10. 16.51 ......................... when did they change O - oboe to oscar ?
  11. volumetric conversions - here's one that is handy Whiskey 700 mls - 40 % alcohol means = 280 mls alcohol (rocket fuel) has 22 standard drinks 280 mls divided by 22 = 12 to 13 mls of rocket fuel per standard drink other liquids with rocket fuel suspended within the above calculation works ruffly with other liquids standard drink about 13 mls of alcohol
  12. no disrespect BUT they would have had ground crew operating those pads ............... it would not take much ? for a ground radio to advise of movements (perhaps there was - don't know)
  13. my understanding is the airfield owner gets a 'cut' of the landing fee - the 'cut' % age is probably confidential that system is an easy sell for Avdata in that when the airfield owner gets used to the 'take' ................... it's probably then easy for Avdata to get out the thumbscrews ......... and then create a really solid symbiotic mutually beneficial business relationship
  14. there's no option to it .................. you have to stay out of the EMAS (the kitty litter) or you'll be put under the microscope
