  1. Couldn’t ask for a flatter site to have an event. walking away is always a good outcome.
  2. Ground fires from impact look pretty severe. Was it working time when it hit the industrial area. A lot of buildings seem damaged.

    I’m getting there. 15kg gone, and still having a beer or wine. Just eating home cooked meals based on csiro diet recipes. might get airborne myself yet.
  4. A thorough brief needs to be part of pre takeoff if you have that kind of safety gear it would be beneficial if your pax knows how it works if poo hits the fan. it might have changed the outcome for the better.
  5. 7 news reporting aircraft dropped from 24000m to 560m rapidly. Even if they stuffed up the measurements in feet, FL 24 is a bit high. Also reported final velocity 190kmh, doesn’t a cirrus travel around 120 knots plus normally. My old C182 did 120 in cruise. sometimes a bit more research before reporting would be better. sad outcome all round regardless.
  6. I did it in a sportstar once, sounded distant and tower could only hear me from other headset mike. ok once i worked out what happened. they are behind the seats also.
  7. Does anyone know anything about a missing plane in the snowy area. News is vague about type other than 1 POB. below freezing there , even if it’s a forced landing, it will be hard surviving.
  8. nanna could knit pure wool ones, i believe wool fibre is a bit fire resistant. wouldn't look to baaaad either
  9. I was meaning more like these than the leotard, looks like they make them in neutral colours now, not just like a rainbow threw up.
  10. Knitted leg warmers like the aerobic set from the 80’s. light enough to roll off and drop on the seat before anyone sees you wearing them.
  11. Nice piloting, would be extra awesome if someone builds a scale carrier and puts it on a lake for missions.
  12. The rear seemed to be the perfect crumple zone. were the occupants ok.
  13. People push past and block up the aisle in the dash 8 into Sydney all the timeushing to get out, only to stand at baggage for 10 minutes or more. Front to back by row should empty out. It’s not that complicated. I put it down to ignorance.
  14. I had the Cessna window pop out on takeoff once, bit of a startle, but I kept on until a safe height to close it. Only closed it due to rustling of charts on leg board and noise level.
