Gnarly Gnu

Darn, wanted to see her led away in handcuffs. May still happen, the police investigation continues.

Can anyone in the petroleum industry enlighten us to prevalence of this substance?

Unlicensed lunatics like Orville and Wilbur would be gaoled today for our safety. And Louis Bleriot, mad Frenchman flying international without even a compass.

Support Drive Aid - greedy people in Africa want to eat our fuel!

"hungry petrol tanks make me angry"

Gnu's, of course, are a cheery lot...

Welcome Lior! Be fun to combine your two hobbies no?

I thought there was a recreational H license in NZ? But perhaps they won't recognise that here....

Another CASA triumph that case.

Just more stupid now I suspect, led by Odumbo and all. Back then they could even identify the enemy and figure out a precise strategy to deal with them.

Amazing period, they made all sorts of machines back then that they can't match the performance of today.

Haha, very good!

Cut a small hole in the top and fill them with concrete, never have a flat again.

Nev25.

There are others out there...

He insisted to me it would remain PPL(H). I don't think CASA care much about what works in other countries, they have their own little fiefdom here to regulate. But I'm interested if Nev has something very different?

Meanwhile best to get a H licence in NZ or USA I would suggest, never going to be cost effective here at least in the foreseeable future.

Asked a CASA guy about this last year, he vowed it would absolutely not happen on safety grounds.

Guess it wouldn't help the RaAus fatality record any....

Clowns are evil, as are Panda's...

I wonder if the 'barefoot bandit' is in town?

hrm, now it says 200 required, what's the go there?

All the high-tech sensors and gear, I wonder why they relied on a hobby plane controller with a stock antenna?

Wouldn't mind so much if it landed in my yard provided I got to keep it....

I can't stand wearing helmets and If I had a choice I would only wear one when riding in built up areas.

I believe head trauma is a significant problem in light aircraft accidents, there have been many instances of folk dying in lightly damaged aircraft due to head impact. Maybe one day airbags will become common.

Howdy Tom!

There are some Skyranger and Zenith owners here, you've probably seen the threads.

It's the English words to the song David - Ode to Joy (part of the song).

The first one is an advert for Banc Sabadell, a local Spanish bank. Superbly organised and orchestrated but you can't help but notice how it is filmed in the nice part of the city; no hint of Spain's 27% general unemployment rate or 53% youth unemployment rate - perhaps because such people have no need of a bank. Also with a middle class indigenous Spanish audience, no sign of the hoards of angry Moroccan youth. But as an advert to the target audience it must be very effective.
