No one herd from him for months, but one day when Turbine Mining were sifting the sands of the Caymans for gold teeth (which they quickly melted into ingots) their sonar picked up a sound like someone whistling in lower case .....................
  3. Its very rough country up in that part of Tasmania. I dropped in to the BP office in Launceston one day and they were all laughing and explained that one of the Finance people (as they do) was complaining that the NE run was only x km so they should be doing it same day, but the driver was taking three days. He flew over for the day to show them how it was done. The locals said most of the trip out is low range, so when it gets dark they'll be staying in a motel about a third of the way out. It the aircraft that have gone down in Bass Strait haven't all left wreckage. When Freedie Valentich went in in the C182 it was five years before a cowl flap was found on one of the islands.

Not many people know that bull owns the Cayman Islands (Turbo only found out about it when he saw the new sign "cayman islands - where your dreams cost less!" at the Airport) and takes a cool 2% commission on every deposit.

His research had already told him that all prawns originate from French Polynesia, so he tried to respond, saying "Bonjour Monsieur". To his surprise the prawn responded with...................................

NES readers should not be put off by Cappy's moaning. Don't tell anyone this but where we all learned our ABCs, he only, at the Kapooka Primary Schoolm was taught the ABs.

This made bullphrog the equivalent of a 21 st century multi-millionaire like Cappy. Turbo's time machine was interesting. He'd bought it as a work in progress of a recreational aircraft the Diamond Dog. The owner had been building it for 12 years without success while asking how to do this from the range of rock stars to toilet attendants who advised him regularly on metalurgy and particularly electronics. The end result was that the aircraft never flew; what could with a galvanised iron skin ("puts huge extra strength into the wings mate") and the lights and radio wouldn't work in spite of 10,000 pages of internet advice. Turbo bought it for a dollar on the proviso that he would also take the hundreds of parts left over from the build. Idly, he started connectig wires when he got it home, and heard a noise ......"This - is the BBC" and "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" and "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" Turbo's grandfather had told him this was a French Resistance code for "Drop 48 cases of exlosives, 18 Owen guns, 6 Gestapo Uniforms and a carton of Jaffas" He didn't do anything more to that wiring, then connected the volume wires and a screen flashed up reading "1944". He turned the volume up and the screen said 1979, and there were Cappy and Turbo lying on the gravel of the Kyber pass, rapid - firing at a hundred advancing Khybers. He quickly hit a button marked "Cutoff" and two hundred arms fell bleeding into the Khyber dust. "This aircaft might be worth something" he said to ...................................
  18. Turbo wishes to reassure NES readers that he merely tapped his mouse (NTTIAWWT) accidentally and the part- finished prose was on it's way! ............it has to be admitted that they crushed the mangroves, the mudcrabs and wiped out the rare one legged sun crab, covered the walking tracks with mud and ate all the easy to catch mini buffalo and short legged kangaroos. For that reason the Environmental Sherrifs, Clag and Phog would turn a blind eye to killing a crocodylianus cookii, as long as the carcass was disposed of thoughtfully. A surly member of the tribe, bullphrog began to find these remains and carted them on two sticks back into the village and down to the sea where he baited a Pterodactyl's wing thorn and started catching hairy-backed sharks which he cut up and sold for ............

  20. ............in fact that's the eighth Pedi Team member in the photo, and as it happens, Turbine's Prehistorical Nails and Beauty has a vacancy for a Pedi consultant; must be able to run fast.
  21. This is the "seeks advice then disregards it" syndrome. No one "dreamt" this up; the procedures were developed by real life around the world which is why we are trained using formal documents from CASA, Airservices and ATSB - linked with ICAO.
  22. I quoted you a CASA document which quotes ICAO material which a Pilot in Command is required to learn and use in the real world.
  23. Do you understand what the Visual Flight Rules Guide is? That the VFRG is an easy ready of the legislation pilots are, or are supposed to have been, trained in? and are expected ti use when flying?
  24. Just checked on where to get the answer. Mayday For those who missed being taught these things, there is a specific and significant difference between the calls. For a start there are three different Maydays, the other two being "Mayday Fuel" and Mayday when Intercepted. Pan Pan This calls up different responses. Both can be googled in the Visual Flight Rules Guide.
  25. No, the Pilot was using the correct term.
