    I would have thought that the best effort would be put into finding a convenient landing spot and concentrating on that, not recalling master of physics lessons andsecond guessing the initial decision which was to land safe. Laws of physics and convoluted theories are great in the classroom but when the excrement hits the revolving thing get practical. Always fly assuming you will need a safe landing spot at any time.

    I built my own RAA aircraft and was trained in it by a qualified instructor, no problems. Not sure about GA aircaft. Check the rules online or ask a flight instructor.

    given the time these things take, and the past history of this, I would not get too excited. Better off taking up watching grass growing as a hobby. In other words, low confidence level from this observer.

    guys, breathing, cow fa.ts, insect emissions and worm juice all produce CO2. Do we get rid of thos too. I think if you are going to worry about all of the things that peoduce CO2 then nothing will get done. Maybe we should all live in sealed caves using co2 filters. Aircraft do very little to increase the CO2 load. Plant more trees and get over it...

    Absolutely. Why would we not give them a statae funeral, they died to protect us.

    We all have the answer, its the very studied and factual speech given by a juvenile scandinavian who seems to have major psychological issues so it must be true. Obviously the many scientists who have studied for years and kept and analysed records for generations must be wrong, after all, an iumpassioned speech to the august UN body must be believed. Lemmjings leap off cliffs because they are cfonvinced their leader knows where to go, climate conspiracy theorists seem to be doing the same thing. Remember folks, at the end of the day, FOLLOW THE MONEY, and who is making it before believing anything this wild.

    Left what, what new reqime. (do you mean Raa Aus?) Bit hard to understand what you mean given the context of the rest of the previous posts.

    Is that right, I thought it was a forum that everyone could air their concerns etc. The "bashing" is by RAA members, and does not appear to be by the page owner or his staff. I completed the survey but found it limited and only fishing for a couple of answers.

    They are doing the best they can, with what little they have. Easy to sit on your computer and criticise. Have you ever faced a fire and put your life on the line. People have already died fighting these fires. Do you have any positive comments or action to assist them?
  22. robinsm
    I may be cynical, but when NSW (Newcastle, Sydney, Wollongong) are threatened by fires, all the experts come out and try to make a name for themselves. The country people and regional people have been battling these fires for years without a lot of attention, and doing it well I might add. Yes the fires are bloody serious and yes the firies are doing brilliantly but the political grandstanding of city folk does not help. If a pollies country hobby farm, or a CEO from the city's vinyard is threatened then the calls for what can the govt do flow. The volunteers always done a magnificent job with limited resources. If the city slickers want to know something, dont askl the pollies, ask the country people who deal with this every year. (wont happen thopugh because no political mileage to be gained). Rant over

    For goodness sake, this is becoming a lottery, who's next. Makes me start to think.

    dont let over 60's get a pilots licence/certificate. (shoot me) Dont let elephants get them either...lol

    agree, save the dollars and use the Zenforo site. As pointed out, most of the features were not used a lot. Consolidate the core then go for expansion again after analysis.
