I just had some more good news he is off the venterlator and is speaking and they expect he will be able to get out of bed in the next week or so. Not totally out of the woods yet but this is great news.:clap2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guernsey Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Thanks Swanny for the update. This year has not been a good one so it is great to hear some really good news for a change. It will be even better when we hear that our friend is airborne again. Alan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Swanny Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 11 march 2011 was a bad year. Had a visit from our friend today. He has passed his BFR and back in the air. More than I can say for myself.i am in incouraging him to put his experience in print for all to read. It's a great outcome and he has a positive outlook and thanks all for your prayers and support.

Guest Swanny Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 It's been a hard year work wise just keeping in front (I have ny own business ) everyone has stopped spending but things are looking up. Also a trip to China cuts a big whole in the budget. Should be able to get back in the air very soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaz3g Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Austers had one tank in front of you and often another underneath. Two glasses of fuel is enough to blow your house up if it is mixed with air. Car racing systems would have to be better than hollow tanks. I think that if you crash any aeroplane significantly deforming it, and it DOESN'T burn, you are lucky. You have electricity, hot motors, fuel lines all ready to go.. Nev Yes, Nev... I've thought about... One on my lap and the other beneath my bum! And only 120 litres all up. But the Tiger has one right over your head!! I have been thinking seriously of a Liitle Buddy or similar flexible tank to give me greater range between bowsers but they all cost an arm and a leg.
