    ........ tis strange that there is not something better to see - more of a record of this B17 flying
  2. johnm
    .......... be great to see a video of this B17 taking off / flying / landing ........... must be have broken its earthly bonds by now ?

    oh how we are living in stupidity .................. this thread reminds me of the QLD anti gang laws (revoked) that from memory stated it was illegal for 3 or more gang members to congregate apart from this thread being collusive ((fraudulently contrived by agreement) - love it .... keep it going) ........ the definition of 'flyin' surely must be written by those same smart bods from QLD ? but, its easy me for to throw rocks at a legislator and yes surely the legislator feels insulted at my lack of understanding - however, irrespective of the legislator's vastly superior understanding on the subject I still can't think its all inane legislation and the 'age of reason' surely must be around the corner

    ......... change is good :D
  5. johnm
    The following suggests unsound mathematical advice: ...........Yes - that said rotax hoses to be replaced at 5 years .......... you can probably stretch it to say 7 years if you are not good at counting

    how many hours flying experience have you got sonny ? and ............... did you learn to fly in tiger moths ?

    its your first thought isn't it ? - just build full size having said that I take my hat of to the builder - must be a lot harder to fly remotely - seems a bit underpowered - probably cause of weight limit .................... how much would something like that be worth Dominicm ?? (got to be at least 25 to 50% of piloted plane ?)

    patent the 'foam cranium headset adjuster' Deskpilot .................... with the right package and wrap you could make some serious money from that

    ..... are you sure thats it ? SSCBD in the course of students flight training - at some time the student must do solo work (god forbid) - assuming the solo rate is then charged to the student when the student flies solo
  11. johnm
    if he going to stay in the new work location - why does n't he do some dual flying with that flight school - that might reassure the flight school that 'new bloke' is competent its their aircraft so I guess they choose who fly's it ............... having said that they may be busy enough, the plane is fully utilised and they don't need new customers (........ a rare business that does n't need new business / customers)
  12. johnm
    the purpose of a flyin / airshow is to see aeroplanes ................ why discourage anyone flying in ... because of an entry fee ? arrivals by plane want to pay nothing. The organisers want to charge as best they can. There must be logically a 'top' fee where no one would arrive by plane because it stings the back pocket to much you need to charge the seething hordes that arrive ....... weighed down by gravity at the earths surface at the gate (not the ones that fly in)
  13. johnm
    yes - you need all sorts kids - adults - lgbti ? - petrol heads - cafe latte - ............ even boaties
  14. johnm
    the annual rate bill is not enough ? ............. they're gunna slug you at the boat ramp ! bureaucracies have an insatiable need for money - they are a prime inflationary cause in my book if you apply the same logic re fees / tolls ......................... they'll have to put a toll on: - entry into the library - entry to public toilets - fence all parks and charge entry through gates - fence all rivers and charge entry through gates - fence all beaches and charge entry through gates - fence all airstrips and charge entry through gates

    I like post 113 is it an actual need from 3rd parties like insurers ............ etc or as post 113 suggest - the RAA bodies need for more members. Isn't more and more cash flowing in (from new members) called a ponzi scheme (sarcasm ....................sorry)

    Suncoast flying ? gympie has a Victa Airtourer assuming for training - come in spinner
  17. johnm
    it would be interesting to know circumstances of why the chute was pulled on the Sirius ? prop seems to be spinning - was it a factory test ?
  18. johnm
    gave you a caution onetrack ! (good insight all the same) ............ hoping the FB people you describe get some sort of meaning out of breathing oxygen, somehow
  19. johnm
    great precedent Bernie .................. but alas 50 lashes probably awaits you when Mr Plod comes to visit ?
  20. johnm
    pilot maybe have also been trying to go to their left - suitable landing area there ........................ not enough inertia though ?
  21. johnm
    it most certainly is satirical - some greats stories case in point (more crime - not aviation though): You searched for parking fine — The Betoota Advocate
  22. johnm
    more crime ....................... being committed at birdsville: Local man slapped with jay-walking ticket in Birdsville — The Betoota Advocate
  23. johnm
    you punched through 10,000 posts turbo - congratulations are in order
  24. johnm
    lack of spare money floating around in society not many students with $ 50 notes falling out of their back pockets in some ways its better to have a flight school operating at say a high $ 300 per hour than have NO flight schools operating at a low $ 150 per hour ?
  25. johnm
    I think that hawker hunter would be worth at least $ 25k oz ? (guess) .................... computes to £140 english pounds There must be a skill to fly one of these remotely - probably harder than sitting in real thing
