Looks Italian to me - Aero Lab?

From memory, it does compensate for wind - and the effect is quite marked!

Yep, many of us hold both - and the GA AFR will also cover your RAAus AFR. Also, any GA endorsements can be added to your RPC (eg MPPC, RU, XC etc).

Criquet (?sp)

Still have to pay $65 (down from $75) even though it no longer gets reviewed by Avmed!

Ahh, the old 6 seater Warrior, been a long time since I flew one of them ... No wonder it fell straight out of the sky!

Not far from me, I lived on Landells Road, a few streets west of Derby Street. I remember that milk bar!

I like how you slid that one in ...

Great shots Peter! I also grew up in Pascoe Vale, and have great memories of Viscounts, Electras and then the 727's and DC-9's tracking overhead on their approach to 26. Later on, I lived for a while directly opposite the airport in Strathmore and well remember the Brain & Brown Argosy's and DC-3's doing their runups prior to departing on 26 not far from our bedroom window.

Herding kangaroos without an AOC will get you into big trouble with the regulator ...

Caproni Campini N.1 experimental jet?

Embraer EMB 121 (Xingu)?

Ahh, might be time to start again - which one do I vote for if I'm 70? 65-70? or 70-75?

Tough one Red! But my money's on a Hirch MRA C.100. From my time, back in the '50's I reckon. Think I saw it at Le Bourget.

Airplane Single Engine Land methinks!

I argued my case before CASA, but they said it wouldn't hold water ....

If it was Graeme, he's a great instructor. I did my first flights with him in a Jab quite a few years ago.

I think it adds the next year when you renew - haven't found any other way to do it.

Looks like a Hoax to me!

Goodyear Inflatoplane! Damn - missed by that much!

Yeah - kasper flipped the image to confuse us!!

Aerosport Rail? Follow-on is the Quail?

One of my faves: A guy is driving around the back woods of Montana and he sees a sign in front of a broken down shanty-style house: 'Talking Dog For Sale.' He rings the bell and the owner appears and tells him the dog is in the backyard. The guy goes into the backyard and sees a nice looking Labrador Retriever sitting there. "You talk?" he asks. "Yep" the Lab replies. After the guy recovers from the shock of hearing a dog talk, he says, "So, what's your story?" The Lab looks up and says, "Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young. I wanted to help the government, so I told the CIA. In no time at all they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping, I was one of their most valuable spies for eight years running... but the jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't getting any younger so I decided to settle down. I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security, wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings and was awarded a batch of medals. I got married, had a mess of puppies, and now I'm just retired." The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for the dog. "Ten dollars" the guy says. "Ten dollars? This dog is amazing! Why on Earth are you selling him so cheap?" "Because he's a bullsh*t artist. He's never been out of the yard in his life."

Oh dear, where to start?

Kinda looks a bit like an aircraft, what with yoke etc, but not really. Hovercraft?
