  3. I had a Jag for a few years , it was called :Gareth,s Folly: 2 engines by other so called experts,1 engine rebuilt by me aaand then I put a small block chevy in, kept it for 1 more year then sold it to a bikie who rebuilt it as a concourse car, he spent 35k and only drove to shows, jags are not good cars
  4. His strip is closed , houses built up all around very dense suburbia now
  5. Hi Nobody, you have quoted the costs for air shows in other countries that are far superior to what we get here in Aus, Avalon being the exception,the shows there are better run, have more static displays and showcase,more industry ,I could go on , we are minnows in the big scheme , Australia used to host better airshows but as with aviation in general its downward, I just want to fly and the odd airshow would be great but the costs associated take the cash away from flying to places I want see, my 2 bobs worth cheers gareth
  6. anyone who flys in should pay minimal entry, it costs us to fly there and the non flying people who want to see all types of aircraft should pay those fees, it does cost to put airshows on but aviators especially those who fly great distance to get there should be subsidised cheers Gareth (another RV owner )
  7. Oops you are in wa not qld
  8. From your description you are at boonah 22 and 04 talk to nigel arnot

  17. Crop dusting from a Foxbat, methinks not
  18. don't mention money ,wink wink nudge nudge
  19. I am only" judging" Neil on his writing on this forum,he probably as you suggest a very nice chap,but if Niel wants us to hear and heed what he is writing on the forum he needs to check what he has written,as you say we have not all had the same education(and I put myself in that bracket to) maybe some help to write ,if I have derided Neil I apologise cheers Gareth
  20. He needs to brush up on his grammar and use of full stops, commas etc, its a pain to read his rants , I try not to read them they are so bad , my 10 granddaughter can do better
  21. Best advice , don,t tell her the cost LOL but new is best if the cost is not too prohibitive for you , good luck Cheers Gareth
  22. and it was settled ,vans were found not to be at fault, litigation gone mad
