  5. I never fill out a survey that were there is no scope to put your own comment in (assuming this survey one was the same) I think such surveys are deriving and answer the the surveyor wants to hear (or use)
  6. could she borrow someone else's card and if interrogated (not likely) .................. then explain that the borrower said it was OK ?
  7. stupid stories ........................... it'd make a good thread dutchroll - we'd all like to hear some ? - I can see the sensitivity of your position though ! its pretty obvious that the majority of airline messages are legal cover / disclaimer. I myself would not mind one announcement that encapsulates it all 'welcome aboard this flight to XXXXX, be warned that if you are concussed, injured, burnt, broken, scalded, poisoned, infected, assaulted, insulted, annoyed, aggravated (etc), during or while arriving within and / or departing any airport terminal, this aircraft or any transport system involved in your travel - then this airline will not enter into any further discussion - you are on your own dearest passenger - assuming that you will enjoy your flight as best you can ........................ if you arrive at your destination safely '
  8. sleep ......... sleeping on the airlines ! - seat belt / cabin warning buzzer every 30 minutes - if there is no warning required - press it anyway - overhead lockers that have latches - they don't need to be slammed - slam it anyway - cabin speakers turned up too loud that your ears ring - turn it up loud anyway - patronising messages stating that you can't smoke in the plane, toilet or terminal (why say it ?) - say in anyway - turn it up loud anyway
  9. geotechnical prize: Prof Mud Walla's comprehensive thesis confirming that dust, is in fact only mud, with all the juice squeezed out

  15. Don Ramsey you seem active on this thread and I think you are part of the RAA office .............................. has 2 yearly registration been considered for aircraft ......................... is there a possibility this may happen - or is filling coffers the primary objective ? thanks JM
  16. asic card or not, I'd like to see the anti-terrorist movement install a vehicle crash barrier around the entire perimeter of Brisbane airport ....................... inside the fence would be much safer then
  17. congratulations fact-hunter - I am at 380 posts - I'll pretend he as at zero and see if I can stay ahead of him
  18. I think consensus is how many active RAA members are there .................. and how many of those use this site ?
  19. geoffreywh ............ here's alittle ditty that covers that quiet well (utube so you should be able to get to it)
  20. I think Ian should organise a brass pipe band and jumper out of cake for this occasion I think its a great achievement ................ shows ticker
