Best of luck, Kaye.

A few attitude changes in this approach...

From the man who brought you the porcelain carburettor:

A UAL 747 overshot the stop and collided with an aerobridge at YMML, damaging its leading edge and putting the aerobridge out of service.

An F-111 has been moved from Amberley to a museum "south of Sydney" according to TV reports.

Nice link Willie. Some good stuff there. Surprising no airliner models.

This is definately off topic, but it's so insane I just had to share it.

The Icon A5 has been featured here before, but here is another video.

YMML was closed for a short time today when the control tower was evacuated because smoke was coming from the computer room. Back to normal now, airlines catching up their schedules.

I spent Friday at the Formula One Grand Prix practice sessions. My son couldn't use his ticket because he had to work, so he lent it to me. The announcer was commenting on modifications to the cars to reduce their weight to as close as possible to the minimum permissible weight - 642 kg. I thought it interesting that it' s just below the maximum weight of recreational aircraft.

If we're posting other videos, this could ruin your whole day:

That was one hell of a ride. Amazing flying.

Hi All,

Found this video on Takeoff Tube:

The Incredible Brodie Landing System

.

This aired a couple of days ago on Sunrise (Channel 7)

INCREDIBLE Cessna Crash Landing filmed by passenger phone

Here's another interesting one. How different thinks look in hindsight.

At YMML I have been sent back and asked to remove my belt and shoes. Many shoes have a metal arch support which sets off the alarm. I also have a fairly large belt and buckle, which also spooks them, not to mention loose change in your pocket. The worst bit is collecting all your bits and pieces and getting dressed again after you have been cleared through.

Not too big, Kaye. 656 x 541. 30.6 KB.
