I bet every emergency response team within 100kms raced to the scene to see if there was any help needed. 😄

Good choice to avoid the crocs in the water and wrestle with the white pointers on the beach.

This is very enlightening.. Reminds me of what we were like in sixth class.  Good effort by the Pilot. Nev

What's so SAD about that. BrendAn ? It has a ring of truth does it Not.?  What's wrong with recognising the Efforts of the Pilot?  Aren't WE Pilots?  Nev

There used to be a term in gliding used a lot in the '70's & 80's - SOFITTH - Silly Old F--- in a Terry Towelling Hat

 

What is see a bit of in this forum is another unusual "item" - a SOFWDF (pronounced SOF WOODIF) - Silly Old F--- Who Doesn't Fly

 

They can certainly be annoying

Non  pilot is not correct, but I haven.t worried about it as I didn't think it was Important  enough to do anything about. What I hate is RUDE people like you who have no idea about being  decent to other people on this forum  entails .You should be ashamed of yourself, peter g. So also the two who think it funny. It's Not as there is a victim. You are also a coward as you would not say it to My face. It' only the last 5 years or  so Behaviour like yours Here has started to ruin this Forum. THINK about it.  You are ALSO miles off topic.  It has nothing at all to do with Darwin Beach Landing, On an aged Pension things like flying a Plane are generally well out  of my reach but I mix with a lot of active  and very experienced pilots { none of whom would treat me as you have CHOSEN to do... Nev

I am certainly not ashamed of myself. Your "know it all attitude" is annoying, would not be tolerated in any professional environment and would be considered dangerous in an aviation environment. I

You could be confident I would say it to your face but certainly would not go out of my to seek you out - you are the epitome of boring company. I am not surprised you identified with my unusual "item". You can further confident that I am not alone with my thoughts

On the contrary, it is the like of you with 35.1K comments that has caused the rot and caused people to leave

YOU have made many people a victim you SOF - you take every opportunity to take a shot a Brendan - YOUR latest victim - I hope like the use of capitals - it is a bizarre, overused style of yours

I'm possibly one of those - further, I have a few other skill sets founded on academic qualifications from tier 1 institutions

I'm likely saying what a heap of others are thinking and others thought and then left the forum

You say that all the time but still support what amounts to defamation and character assassination. I'm ENTITLED to defend Myself and let me assure you  I will continue to do so. . I have that right surely. . The section you were in is where serious things get discussed .Start a new topic about nude beaches is that is your thing. It DID remind me of the giggly way we talked of such things is Sixth class so I thought it Might strike a chord with a few People. Anyhow the Overreaction is typical when it's Me involved. I'll defend MY reputation from the sort of thing peter g has just said because It's unwarranted, Nasty, and should NOT be encouraged. Nev

I have No idea where you are going, BrendAn. Apparently all gloves OFF is OK when it's  Me. I tell it Like it IS and in as few words as is Needed.  Not in riddles I've tried asking you nicely. That's a complete waste of time. Nev

all i am saying is you feel free to use humour when you feel like it but if anyone else jokes you tell them the forum is not for joking.

i know you have your fair share of knockers.

just like that nude beach.🤣

Why is a Nude beach such a big deal? the story was about an aeroplane Landing after an engine failure. If MY making that Point that was the worst thing that's Happened to you, you would be getting off very lightly here.  There are 2 Parts to this Forum one More about Aircraft than the social one. I'm only asking for a bit of self discipline to be applied from people who should have it. Nev

Nev,

 

The NT News is world renowned for taking the pxss. Every addition has a croc story. My favourite was a building project running months behind schedule. The tradies blamed the delays on the worksite overlooking a swimming area that was frequented by topless, Swiss backpackers. Front page news.

One might imagine you don't like Monty Python either!
