    Remember Engines DON'T FIX them selves. An inlet valve not closing can force High Pressures into other Cylinders. Backfiires DO damage Motors. Glad to hear it's fixed. I'd prefer manually adjusted valves . Bit more work to adjust But More reliable and you get to know if anything's changing there. Nev

    Esperance is worth a few days and I think there's a club there. Normal prices. You might EVEN want to LIVE there. Nev

    The Weather would be my Main concern for both the actual flying and accommodation and the Aircrafts safety when the weather changes. It's LOOOooNG WAY. Nev

    The "Technology" has come a long way since the 40's. The top builders are easy to find. and even they have their occasional production delays. This is super hi tech stuff. and always will be. Nev

    Joe had a brain and knowledge to lapse in his MOMENTS. Trumps KNOWLEDGE is of the Lacking variety. He has Nothing to lose. Nev

    There's Carbon Black in Rubber. Not many light aircraft window materials like fuel or the sun. Nev

    Removing the Limit Number of terms you can serve doesn't mean the BBC VIEW on interpreting IS the only possible outcome. PUT in had a seat warmer ( Medvedev the Crazy) do the Job for him and his possible Opponents seem to disappear one way or another. China is not that obvious. .1.4 thousand Million People have to be reasonably Happy with their lot and XI Knows it. HE doesn't strut around pretending to Be GOD either and knows the Importance of economics. Something Trump will never know the Basics Of. "You're Fired" is what happens when he gets told the Truth. Where does THAT END? Nev

    Trumps America is looking even worse than China as an example of how to get things done. China doesn't have a God-KING like TRUMP wants to be. The Chinese Leader is only there till He isn't. He has to deliver the Goods or HE Goes. The Party will see to that . Trump is about making it IMPOSSIBLE to get rid of HIM by stacking the deck and by retribution on any thing OR PERSON that can/ might oppose what HE WANTS. He orders records to be altered or Disappear that Might affect him. . USA is now in Deep $#!t. It cannot be TRUSTED anymore. Nev

    Hangars have to be High wind RATED to provide aircraft Safety. Doors are the WEAK POINT. you can't triangulate the Opening. Another problem is getting planes out from the back without damaging or moving others by "hangar Rash". The sealed floor in concrete costs a Monty. Consider good compaction and Hot tar mix as an alternative. It's a rich mans World. Nev

    Not likely they would get UK Or US engines supplied on an assured basis.. Nev

    People who visit Chinese Factories are simply "in AWE" of what they see. Us Infrastructure is out dated and in dis repair. Lack of Investment and research. Port Facilities and road and rail. USA still make SOME good stuff but Gov't Interference and chaos won't be the solution. "Hewson We have a Problem". The Bloke at the Helm has a screw loose. He's not POTUS Material. and thinks He Da KING. Nev

    You can't rest on your Laurels. The BIG RR motor nearly sent Britain Broke before it was sorted. Nev

    I've met Mike a few times when he worked for CASA. Quiet, Unassuming and Capable. I doubt anybody would say a bad word about him. Nev

    It would take a while but their Barking can be Louder than the interior of a Plane. You can hear my dogs 4 Kms away. Nev

    She "Goes Like a Rocket" won't mean what it used to. Nev

    IF their ears tolerate their own barking the Plane won't worry them. Dogs go deaf anyway. . Nev

    I don't see a cage as a necessary requirement G of G wise. Some restraint is another matter. (interfere with control movement).. Pets are being allowed on commercial flights more and more. Nev

    Work on BIG stuff has Builder approved procedures. IF you follow that to the Letter you are bombproof. Outside of that and you are on your own (as it should be). and it's also documented. Nev

    What's a LAIM? Nev

    Bass Strait was at that stage regarded as Australia's Bermuda Triangle.. I crewed a DCA F27 at short Notice to search for that Fellow. Had about 6 observers on Board . Maybe the DCA pilots were on a day off. Nev

    ltf I think you'd have to have a current PIFR and certified GNSS. Nev
