    Hint: It's not us who are calling Scotty from marketing "rotten". In the US there's extensive coverage of this disaster. Morrison is facing international humiliation. The outspoken citizens of Cobargo have been seen and heard around the world. That's not something from which Morrison can run,although he will try.He saw the cameras.That's why he claimed to have met international emissions goals

    Here's something that cheered me up... Bette Midler (@BetteMidler) Pity the poor #Australians, their country ablaze, and their rotten @ScottMorrisonMP saying, “This is not the time to talk about Climate Change. We have to grow our economy.” What an idiot. What good is an economy in an uninhabitable country? Lead!! (My emphasis) Nice one Bette

    The question that hangs in the air like a limp windsock is,"Where are the emergency assistance measures directed at the thousands of Australians with no homes?" Unlike previous disasters that I recall, there has been a void of silence. Does this government feel that demands need to rise to a shout before reluctantly opening the purse for those suffering extreme loss and anxiety.

    Albo was never my choice for loto. But he has been clear about the necessity for nations to stand on the side of positive action when disaster, as predicted 40 years ago, comes to the fore. This is truly the eve of destruction.

    Yes, Ultralight, I still love the Thruster. Wheel and gear damaged when a bolt broke on the tail spring and we hit a tyre marker on the edge of the strip. Don't use tyres at the edge of your strip.

    Anybody with the merest interest in political accountability could have predicted the slothful and disrespectful reaction to this national catastrophe from Scott from marketing. It may, just possibly, bring about an awakening of consciousness from the so obviously ignorant polity. I see that in every utterance, Scott (from marketing), injects his crass political jibes. He's still so far behind in providing empathy and understanding of the people's feelings of loss and despair.

    I once got a bit of hail from a strange, tall and skinny cloud on a warm afternoon at about 7,000ft. Took the leading edge off a wooden prop causing me to pull the power and land pronto on a very convenient ag strip.

    We had a little Kitfox Mk 1 and it was absolutely delightful to fly. Can get the radar on the modern flight apps.

    Yes Frank, we could do with any of that you don't want. Don

    The bit that reads, "No Iraqi's were harmed when making this video."

    Its called , "The big lie." Otherwise, "Drinking the Cool Aid".

    Twist & turn, twist & turn. Plausible deniability is the US' stock in trade.

    The linked story below seems to point to the US as the source of chemical weapons used by Saddam (Yes he's a bastard, but he's OUR bastard) Hussain in the attack on the Kurds. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-153210/Rumsfeld-helped-Iraq-chemical-weapons.html

    Hans Blix was another honorable expert who was ignored by the deplorables in the coalition of the killing.

    Like the Hmong and other hilltop tribes in Vietnam. Used like toilet paper by the US and other western dupes.

    Sounds a little like Howard's declaration that he was not going to listen to the mob, after huge public demo's against Australia going to war on Iraqi peoples. Some democrat!!!

    I have thought that religion, being the "opiate of the masses", was the means for lazy people to calm their ignorant anxiety. Then, from what I read of the pentacostalist's philosophy, they must be the laziest thinkers of all. How good is goin' to kirk on Sunday???

    Of course Nev, the obverse argument is Scummo's "Too small to make a difference". If everyone had that small minded view of the world we could all forget about choice and line up for a tatood number.

    I don't see any joy in doing 19+hrs in any configuration. Alright if you are a "Slave to the Money" and want to be there. A-350's are relatively comfortable and NOT Boeing.
  22. Methusala
    A-350's are around 300mm wider in the cabin. This adds around 25mm width to economy seats. It doesn't sound much but is very noticeable. They are almost uncannily quiet in the cruise.

    Sorry, rushed in without seeing that this was already reported. Don
