    Cesspool ML last night, getting more & more a rat race every day!

    jackc…stop showing signs of enjoyment, that’s unacceptable……to some😉😂

    That heli contraption has $$$$ written all over it😂

    Give that man a cigar😉 The peak on the left (as far as I could tell) is rather famous. Drove past it yesterday.
  5. Flightrite
    Guess where?

    Lake Eyre Nth yesterday, for those that can’t get there to see it. Taken a little higher than the average bug smasher😉👍

    Ah poor Bob, feeling a little left out😉😂😂

    Amazing footage there! Imagine the cost involved just so mankind can continue to find quicker easy ways to blow each other up? The human species hasn’t progressed far at all since they left the caves with clubs!🙁

    That’s so true T88. I recently drove/ferried a basic toy plane interstate for somebody and it was a horrible thing as far as the gas pedal goes! Pull it to idle and watch the tachometer creep up 150 rpm or so!

    Too easy😂

    In over 42 years driving planes I no longer question what keeps us up, it just does, and that’s fine with me😂

    Dave wont do annuals etc normally, there’s no money in it! He’s a savvy businessman, he knows where the $$& lie and it ain’t in toy planes!😂

    How much an hour for that old girl?

    They also don’t mention other added stresses. Violent engine failure with associated noise and oil spraying everywhere! hysterical passenger especially sitting next to you! The only other thing that should be mentioned is that the need to get back on the RWY should NOT be the priority, the whole airfield should be clear enough to make an emergency landing!

    Hope everyone watches the Blancolirio Chanel re the latest stall/spin fatal accident in the States of a C140, actual footage is available. just so unnecessary🙁

    Good job we don’t have much of this going on in Oz udderwize we’d have bodies everywhere!

    Most understand it but there will always be those that simply don’t believe! as long as they are not sharing the same airspace as me then let ‘em rip😂

    Turning DW I maintain the same airspeed, Airbus to ultralights, old wives tales tends to frighten many!

    I’ve completed today a trip up to my mates place, 440 nm in 2.5 hrs using 84ltrs costing just under $230 bucks. It couldn’t be done in some batt powered machine and never will in my lifetime! I’ll stick to my hydrocarbon burning contraption for just the thrill and simplicity of it👍

    All basic info for a well trained and recurrent tested driver, trouble is few are properly trained in the first place and even less tested thoroughly during annual checks! Till licensing gets a lot harder the accidents will continue!

    The poor brave buggers didn’t have to worry about stalls etc too much, few lived past a few weeks of combat flying anyway!

    Water and electrons don’t mix, ask any early vehicle Pommy POS!😂

    This has been around for a while now. Looks good as computer generated graphics but so are all the other Weasley idea’s that pop up every now and then! The fuel source is often the biggest stumbling block, just like EP they have a looooong way to go to knock off petrol/diesel powered ICE’s! Oil Co”s control just about everything!
  24. Flightrite
    You missed my point flyboy!
  25. Flightrite
    That’s incorrect flyboy. I’ve been using Lithium batts for many years always charging with the correct multi cell charger, I’ve had 3 catch on fire! I wouldn’t fly in a batt powered plane for all the tea in China!
