    Looks flocking dangerous.

    My aeroplane is RAA reg but in all respects can be CASA reg if I choose. All certified instruments etc. So, it is an aeroplane!

    My beacon is now 15 years old and I suspect a new one will be better than replacing batteries. What is the best and latest?

    Funny I have both of them on my desk at present and was thinking they would probably work.

    Everything we post here can be found by an ordinary Google search. I have been surprised in the past by what pops up. If you plan to stand for politics, your fate is already sealed by your previous posts!

    I bought a brand new aircraft then paid to have several firewall penetrations properly sealed.

    CASa don’t process your medical they just file it. It is kept in case you crash when they can pull it out and put it in a report. They have few or no medically qualified staff.

    Did he kill two people at Parafield?

    Looks like a catfish.

    It surely must be the way of the future, eventually giving us control like birds have. But that might take another fifty years.

    In my business experience, you can amend a document by hand and initial the change, then send it in with your payment. If they accept the money they have accepted your amendments.

    Machete crime here is always reported as a stabbing. It isn’t. It is a slash or chop.

    Bowen has announced we will be drilling for oil and he now thinks it is a good thing. What a two-faced lying b-----d. He has done everything he could to bring our economy to its knees in the name of net zero, now he has found religion.

    For those who have argued that Australia does not use the term Mogas,Viva energy itself describes it as their Mogas plant.

    So what’s with the propellor?

    Whereas in Australia, many outback charging stations are powered by diesel generators. Saving the planet.

    My local flights take me from one gold mine to the next, as my passengers would confirm.

    Nev I have been here a long time too, though not as long as you. I think you have become more cranky or cantankerous over time and it can annoy people. I have learned not to express my views too often, mainly on the other forum, as it just annoyed people and brought personal attacks. I believe deeply in my own views on some things and wish I could change the thinking of others, but I have largely given up trying. Cheers, Peter.

    I challenge whether a properly maintained Rotax912 has a higher failure rate than say an O320.

    Yes, it will stop the coffee tasting funny.

    The main requirement for DRA used to be carriage of a HF radio.

    Still on the gold mining theme, a super sucker can lift big lumps of broken rock up to 120 meters from a shaft. That’s why your prop can lift bits of gravel half a metre or so from a taxiway if you don’t keep moving.
