hello Baz You do meet people from time to time that did not 'get it' when coming to flying (instructors no doubt meet them more). Main thing is flying is a detachment from things normal - its great fun - and its a learning thing of things unknown. ................. I recommend you jump in a plane and do / pay 2 or 3 hours of lessons - you'll know from that, or have an idea if you'll fit into 'the slot' Also if you know someone that flies - ask & go for a fly with them - that way there is no learing / instructor obligation - just the fun of it (learning and instruction is / are fun - just a different sort of fun (should be))

at time 1.54 ............... whats that on left wing trailing edge ............................... does not match the other wing / difference -
not taking anything away from the skill of the flying - a demonstration of skill ? .......... and no offense to the poster but ............ a lot of this stuff on UTube (or whatever) is contrived - at 0.37 the pilot has paper, a pen and a tape measure ................ no less ................ a mathematical calculation to determine (please fill in blanks) Contrived describes something artificial, forced, or unnatural, often appearing carefully planned rather than spontaneous or genuine. It usually implies a negative, disapproving, or "fake" quality in plots, excuses, or situations. Synonyms include artificial, forced, stilted, unnatural, engineered, and affected

the landing strip is at carriage 9 I can't see any reson why some live music - quartet / orchestral perjhaps folk - could not be undertaken at carriage 3 or 4 - maybe also deancing bears at carriage 5 it would be just as relevant

page 23 - rupert red two - autobigraphy of pilot jack broughton 1940 WW2 ............ and Churchill was aluding to the US army that they might not be ready for any future military conflict - the us army tried to counter such allegations and to generate the image of strength; in a highly publisized military exercise in Louisiana between ill trained blue and red forces - one unwanted outcome was concerned a GI from the red force raising a broomstick to simulate a rifle - pointing at a blue GI and shouting 'bang you are dead' - The blue Gi's reply was 'No i'm not - I'm a tank'

............... start of a good idea - theres money involved here ............ so there's going to be some rorting - you could put lots of other things in this category to - imagine the whole neighbourhood going to the supermarket in the falcon with a trailer on the back ......... sound like fun to me - imagine having a depot -m where you wait for a car to take you to your advertised destination - imagine hitching a ride with a pollie when they jet overseas to France - etc
