    and I can't see where there's many public piped water supplies, that have substantial volumes of water to spare - particularly when it's potable water in their pipes.

     

    Well,

     

    Sydney as well as other cities, is short of water, Dubbo is a lot shorter with dams less than half full.

     

    A couple of plane loads of drinking water, for fire fighting will see us in dire straights.

    HOW TO FLY - No Really!

    "How can you manage that M61?."

     

    I too would like to fly (safely) in a paddock, 

     

    I had GOOD training " for a normal two seat aircraft".

     

    And FAILED MY basic EXAM.,

     

    NOW. HOW DO i FLY MY SINGLE-SEAT, UNTESTED (not FLOWN) Pride & joy. (TOY)

     

    No licence

     

    No RAA  registration ( removed from register list )

     

    No insurance ( Not Registered)

     

    Just once OR twice around the field, should let me savour the Joy.s & perils of " soaring like an eagle".

     

    Maybe far too scary, to even Lift the Training wheel off the dirt & have the rudder control my Hummel Bird.

     

    kick left to go left, unless side-slipping.

     

    four other HummelBirds  stalled on the building stage, out of fourteen. ( one went to the TIP.)
