  1. ............three cups of chook uts which are a Chinese delicacy served in the resorts in the Taklamakan Desert in North West China.

    cook uts translated mean Rams Eyes.

     

    The duty chef that night was Jacguelin, who had called herself Jack from the time she roped a bull at the age of three.

    Jack came from the wheat town of Henty South and was .....a wheat farmer.

    Like most wheat farmers her head tapered to the top and her body was a rectangle from the shoulders down, with legs like tree stups.

    Wheat farmers used to pearn how to life and carry a 180 point bag of wheat but Jack could throw them, and frequently did when she was criticised.

    Her only weak point was schooling, and in the winter time when all the other Cockeys went to school, Jack would sit on the front verandah with a pair of binoculars watching the wheat grow, and tweaking it this way or that with spray or irrigation. She had the best return in the district.

     

    However, on that night that lack of schooling caught her out and she went out the back, reached into the bin and grabbed two handfuls of chook guts, and......

  2. .....CWA supper kitchen. Mavis called the Fire Brigade and told them to hurry, the pub was burning down. Loxie rang the bell, slid down the pole raced across and started up the new Mercedes Benz Fire Truck (nothing was too good while Wagga Wagga ratepayers were available to foot the bill) raced to the pub, aimed the hose at the smoke and the BBQ wood went flying in all directions.

    Arthur, President of the GGPub BBQ Committee, wearing his green Committee blazer with his gold name on it advanced on a line of six CWA members all wearing white aprons. This was not going to be .....

  3. BULLETIN: EEN HAS GRACIOUSLY VOLUNTEERED TO HOUSE WHAT HE THOUGHT WERE 129 REFUGEES AT HIS PLACE BUT HADN'T TAKEN ACCOUNT OF THE 40 OFFICES ON EACH FLOOR.

    HE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY RAA VOLUNTEERS WHO COULD TAKE A FEW. I'M BUSY ORGANISING A WEDDING. MODERATOR 2.

  4. ............Dipro nuts newly released by Turbine Stockfeeds and Dipro Delicacies.

    This prompted Lonely to get up and sing an old Country song "I may have a coat of concrete but I've got a heart of gold." and by the time he was finished there wasn't a dry eye in the house.

    Cappy couldn't help himself; he stood up and ......

  6. Had an argument with my BFR instructor while doing a spin check. The aircraft would enter a spin but as soon as the rudder or stick pressure was relaxed it started flying again. He wanted a full spin recovery demonstration but as soon as the back pressure or rudder was centered the speed climed very quickly into the yellow arc I was on to this and would roll straight and get the nose up ASAP. He did not like the use of aileron which is true if it was still in a spin but not is a spiral dive with the speed getting away. Some people want to see the procedure rather than flying the plane hence the over speeds.

    Hopefully you weren’t flying RA

  7. ........night. The live music had started with Ali Mills singing Waltzing Matilda in Dipro so Lonely could understand it. Of course before he got the concrete coat there were no sheep in Australia so Ali had to improvise.

    Not many people know that the drummer arrived late for the show to a glaring stare from Ali.

    At around 36 seconds you can see him still screwing up the drum skins, and from that point he plays head down. At 2:28 after a few more death stares you can see him just waiting for the cuff under the ear.

     

    Following this act .........

     

  8. .......way with meat. At this point a fight broke out between the Animal Rights group in the corner of the Ladies Parlour and the members of the Guwangee Nguyen CheeTribe who'd got to the pub early and were sitting next to the band.

     

    Turbo, who in the old days as MC of many weddings, usually a month or two after a BNS, used to spend half his week's pay to the often less than happy couple sending outrageous telegrams to liven things up, sent a number of emails to the band with requests which were going to liven things up later in the ..............

  9. ...........was its lack of elasticity. The appreciative crowd nodded their heads and agreed they were getting concrete advice from Lonely.

    All except little WunTrak who'd come in from the bush and missed the Drifter landing, and now .........

  10. .......had told the story of "Lonely" and the wombats many times before. Lonely had a brain comparable to ours and had built himself a giant Drifter (avref) from plans. It was actually Lonely who invented sand casting aluminium, and the propellor, but he hadn't tthought of ailerons and had to twist his wings with his hind claws.

    Bur, and let this be a lesson to all readers here, he started a movement called BLM and showered the main street of Longreach with propaganda, but God was watching and turned him into a pillar of stone which didn't do much for the W&B of the Drifter and he finished up in the main street of Eulo where the Drifter....................

  11. .............making it illegal to kill Diprodons in Australia.

    The STD movement upset the plans of Turbo, who had located the museum where the Diprodon was kept, sent in an operative from TIA (Turbine Intelligence Agency), to obtain a small sample of DNA, and this week at the cat farm a big and nasty Tabby had give birth to six baby Diprodons.

     

    The logic was simple for Turbo; if you can export 200,000 tonnes of cat meat, for the same wages cost you can export 2 million tonnes of DMeat, which was the proposed product's new name, and would be marketed with pictures of rolling green hills studded with Hereford cattle.

    (Some people might call this misleading, but consider that we eat Chines pig meat from our Australian supermarkets which label it 2% Australian content).

     

    Realising he was going to lose his battle with STD, Turbo had managed to secure a deal with Kim Jong Un to build a 20,000 Ha DFarm in North Korea. Kim was so excited about it that he bought the first ten years' production; a total of 20 million tonnes.

     

    Turbo had scaled up the cat meat volume, and now all he had to to was find a pair of giant Rats to breed for the DFood, and who would be better to advise on this than ...............

  12. ........a tribute to the original owners of this land, the Coast Salesh tribe from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

    There was some rumbling within the meeting until Turbo explained the local Aborigines referred to themselves as "First Nations" and this was the name of the tribes of which the Coast Salesh were members. Being Canadian, First Nationals were automatically disqualified from taking over any Australian land, least of all the offices of FU.

    Since that applied in every State, FU were able to lower their rates even further to the point where it was likely they would replace Qantas as Australia's Airline and they could now use their catchy little tune "FU Australia;., In there and fight ...........................

  13. .........this all fitted very well with the millenial dudes who'd stand for the whole flight provided they had two thumbs free and were allowed to use their Iphones.

    and Virgin FU was almost ready for launch when Diversity stepped in and ................

  14. .............a seating layout first mentioned by Charlie Sitch who owned 105 buses servicing Melbourne's Sunshine area. The Bus Operators were complaining about an upper limit on seating capacity of 41 not being enough. "I've taken seats out of mine" said Charlie "They're all now 28 seaters, which costs me less in licenseing fees. I've put stanchions in them for people to hang onto, and now in peak peridos we carry 100. I can't help it if people keep getting on." Not many people have noticed and the press hasn't commented, but the Virgin fleet has been quietly moved from the mothball area to Engineering and B-Doubles have been seen delivering light gauge stainless steel tube. Once again it seems that Turbo has produced success out of failure, and the new Virgin ticket, at $9.99 Sydney to Brisbane is going to .................

  15. I really have no way of knowing Turbs I'm NOT trying to say it's ok but I don't wish to see people afraid to do things when and if they get into situations outside of the comfortable "normal". I've exceeded vertical bank at less than 100 ft altitude with a violent wind change on take off. IF that had freaked Me out I would be dead or have be been seriously injured. An onlooker would no doubt have thought "what the hell is HE trying to do?" Nev

    We are talking about students here, and early ones at that. Nor are we talking about violent wind changes or people being freaked out.

    In this case the onlooker is ATSB, the question is how it ever got to that point.

  16. Yes you shouldn't perform aerobatics and extreme manoeuvers in circuits without a good reason.. All pilots are BOUND to operate the aircraft in the most safe manner possible in the circumstances. THIS may include breaking some rule or other and if so, be ready to Justify it.. A least you may be alive to do so. Nev

    Do you think, when he got it up to 104 degrees AOB he thought he was performing aerobatics?

    We are talking way beyond breaking rules here, or doing a non-standard manoeuvre to save an aircraft.

  17. It's called showing off, something a lot of pilots love doing!

    "turns in excess of 90 degrees AOB over a built up area at heights betweeb 600 - 1300 feet"........."manoeuvres far inexcess of the aircraft's performance' ......"104 degree AOB > loss of control"

     

    These are not showing off; they indicate a major lack of understanding of basic aircraft handling and CASA are going to have a major job on their hands trying to reef in anoy others who went through training and didn't understand that 104 degrees angle of bank in the circuit would not normally be taught by an instructor. People being trained for 30 degree AOB in the circuit, and steep turns at 45 degrees are not likely to experience what happened to this person, nevber mind about the make of aircraft.

  18. There's no record of any coronial finding involving Fentanyl, in any aircraft crash in Australia, that I can find.

     

    There have only been four recorded Bristell crashes where the ATSB has become involved, one in Ireland and three in Australia, and only two of these crashes are recorded as being suspected as a result of a flat spin.

    ...........

     

    Australia - Stawell, VIC - Investigation: AO-2018-066 - Collision with terrain involving BRM Aero s.r.o. Bristell S-LSA, VH-YVX, near Stawell, Victoria, on 5 October 2018

     

     

    The ATSB has published details of the Stawell crash, and they don't seem to have a lot to do with aircraft design.
