    Sad news of one of our community. RIP

    I am not normally a supporter of Premier Dan but given the continuing spread of Covid in Victoria what do you suggest would be a better approach? Many citizens are too complacent with contributing to overcoming the situation and so it continued to fester. Better to strike a strong enforcement for six weeks than pussyfoot around for many months. I want to firstly survive the pandemic and importantly to me go flying. Under level three lockdown I could not get to my aircraft so getting serious with the situation to get a result is my choice.

    ABC reporting a helicopter clashing with power lines near Deniliquin.

    As there are reportedly 5,000+ members of AAPS, versus 500,000 specialist physicians in the USA, they are not reflecting the true medical community. Sounds very self serving to me rather than concerned with the truth and the community.

    Thanks Aro, I found it within cloth masks. As I was not looking at cloth masks as a retail source I did not read this section. I doubt that many domestic mask makers would incorporate a valve.

    I haven’t seen this on the Vic Health web page.

    However some masks have an exhaling valve which allows the wearer to breathe out their germs to anyone nearby. These have not been listed as unsuitable by the authorities.

    Correct , south to the cutting at the Hume Hwy, along the range north then approach Wang YWGT from the north landing on the grass of course. True flying that started my liking for tail draggers.

    Grease on the tow ball might as well be lapping paste.

    We went for a Tiger ride some time in the eighties. The female pilot I don’t recall her name, was subbing on for her partner who had health issues. Good fun it was too.

    Am I being cynical in thinking that this is a good way to remove the burden of senior welfare worldwide, Also it could be creating jobs to replace older workers. I am in my seventies and feel challenged not only by the attitude of the 20/30 year olds but by many governments around the world.

    Yes, I do as a part of shut down.

    I run a battery isolator mounted under the panel. 1/4 turn to disconnect. It serves to stop any possible battery leakage as well when hangared.

    Amazing thread drift gents. LEDs to pool chlorinators.

    Typo in #4 above, should read Joyce not Jones. It may be only part of his income but big donation in my opinion. His package is not much different to many on excessive bundles.
  16. tillmanr
    He has, about $3.3million. Easy to search. I am not an apologist for Mr A Jones.

    The registration now appears to be allocated to a Cirrus

    The Jabiru site only shows the current J series aircraft from my looking.

    I was driving a school bus down from Falls Creek Vic when a great tearing sound filled my ears. I thought it was an 18 wheeler locked up about to wipe us out With a flash, the F111 went up the valley at our eye level. Frightening but great to experience.

    Maybe you should speak to Boeing.

    Be very careful of using trico. Bad health downside from fumes.

    I have an Icom A16E and find it nice and clear. I don’t know what the range is transmitting. I have only used it on the ground.

    Some 60 years ago, while in junior high I started rebuilding motorcycle engines but I still gleaned some interesting snippets at the Jab course. If you have not had the opportunity to play with things mechanical then you need to start somewhere. I don’t think a theoretical overview is enough. If the paperwork is critical then run seminars for this but open up opportunities for inexperienced people to get some spanner time.

    I agree KP, I found the Jabiru course well structured and a good example of what be considered a minimum for L1 accreditation.

    During my engagement cannons were not plugged in until time to taxi with engines running.
