  3. Hi Doug, Really interesting story - thanks for finding and posting it. Cheers Neil
  4. Hope so, wx permitting, of course....
  5. ....so do you also get annoyed at the signs at supermarket checkouts saying "9 items or less" instead of "9 items or fewer" ? Pedants rule OK

    I'm green with envy!
  8. Hi Rob and . Congrats on getting your Certificate. Tell us a bit about yourself - what you fly, what sort of flying you intend doing, will you be buying a plane, etc Cheers Neil
  9. Hi JWW and Tooradin is a long way to go from the North West suburbs - have you moved location recently? Do you still fly from there? Cheers Neil
  10. Hmm - acronyms ...WINO - does that stand for Watching Incoming Nanchang Operations? Cheers Neil
  11. Why don't I ever get attendants like that on my flights? Excellent stuff...
  12. Hi Kaz, I had not seen that story about the colliding Ansons before - absolutely amazing! And ironic that they survived something freaky like that and then died in stupidly mundane circumstances later... My favourite bit "As far as Fuller was concerned, the touchdown was better than any he had made when practising 'circuits and bumps' at Forest Hill airfield the previous day". LOL Cheers Neil
  13. Well, Alan, just how low do you fly that cow in your avatar? I'm sure most members of the public would not want a pat on the head - not only is it condescending, but also very messy to clean up.......
  14. ...and in the UK, where you might expect a white Christmas, they had temperatures (in the south-east anyway) of about 14 degrees C and one of the warmest Christmases on record. But then at the same time last year they were knee deep in snow... Gotta love the weather. Neil
  15. Hi Gary, I was at East Anglia University in the early 1970s, and was at the Halls of Residence at Fifer's Lane just by the airfield! Wow - takes me back! I remember many times going into Norwich for a few bevvies....(don't remember getting back ....) Moved out to Aus about 14 years ago now and learnt to fly here. Good to hear you are flying there in sunny Blighty! Cheers Neil
  16. Hi TP, Hmmm, I would say just the opposite! Firstly and most important, he is still alive! Secondly, if he was being a naughty boy, then he will learn a very important lesson. I would say he was very fortunate... Cheers Neil
  17. Hi Pete, Just click on the image itself, rather than the text "View attachment 16158 " and it works OK (for me anyway). The plane looks great, Andrew! So when are you dropping in to Penfield so I can get a close-up look? Cheers Neil

    Hi

    Hi Scott, Congratulations, mate!! Excellent stuff. Gave Saturday afternoon a miss myself due to the hot weather (not much cool air round our way on Saturday!) Expect to see you at Sunbury soon then by the sounds of it Cheers Neil
  19. Hubcap look? What do these people drive? Roman chariots? Personally I drive a Subaru, the version without the scythes on the wheel hubs....

  21. Me too. Perhaps they could put it back in the new design.....

  23. Hi Dane, to the site. I don't know about Airborne aircraft myself - but the Classifieds here will probably have some. Also the Members' Market section of the Sport Pilot mag has a load of ads you can search.... Cheers Neil
