    I could not agree More. Nev

    Care to elaborate?. Plenty of good and reliable information says otherwise. He's a stand over Merchant who purposely divides the USA and has spread Chaos and instability widely. with his Dealings and Putin Loving.. Nev

    You are Blowing it out of proportion, I would suggest, and it was still about managing aerodromes and safety thereof. Something used as an example needs no follow up nor was it sought. Nev

    HARS is a great Place to visit. Nev

    I was giving a stark EXAMPLE of an adverse situation most would be aware of. Is it untrue, and can you think of a better one to Quote as an example? Very short . Trump obeys NO rules. Nev

    The Aircraft depicted are different types of aircraft from Years ago. RPT jets are required to be stabilised by at least 400 feet above runway Level. It's a higher figure with Larger and Longer planes, This Precludes a tight low turn onto a short final and Supports my contention the particular Runway is NOT suitable for the B 767. Nev

    I only used VASIS (generic) as they all use Pilots Eye height and do the same thing. Eye height Vs Wheel position varies significantly from plane to Plane. When you first go onto a plane like this, the Landing feels/appears to the Pilot like a low fly past in the small Plane you recently flew. The wheels are 70+ feet behind you as well as below you. They can also have refractive errors. with air density There could also have been some wind shear or heat from the busy road which is far too close to the end of a very short runway. Undershoots are not that rare and that one is deadly. Nev

    Was there a VASIS? That's MY Point ALL pilot's vision is constantly checked as Part of their Licence Medical. THAT runway is Unsafe for that aircraft. Nev

    Tribes have rules if they want to exist in a way that has Order and form. Trump obeys NO rules, THAT is CHAOS and Instability. Just what you don't NEED. Nev

    It would have Been a VISUAL approach in that situation. Nev

    BrIsvegas . Trump Tower also has a lot of opposition. GOLD Coast... Corruption Capital of Australia. Nev

    A VASIS is REQUIRED for Jet Ops. Even so, the Long fuselage of that Plane has to be adjusted for. Short runway with a Major road at the Threshold it's Only a Matter of time before an Undershooting Plane comes to grief. Lucky to get away with it, and how would it be in Marginal weather? Nev

    Having flown in 1929, it must have been designed before that so Has to be viewed in that context it would be quite advanced. Nev

    I call it Empire Building. Make everything as complex as possible, with a small minded outlook. Nev

    Some times it all gets too Hard. Have your own strip and IF others use it, you have Liability issues. In the country you may find out everybody is related when you want anything done and you will always be a Blow in. . Nev

    There were Faulty components involved there. Going through the Inter-tropic convergence zone should have HAD the Captain in the cockpit, being predictably the Most critical Part of the Flight. That Plane should not have crashed. Nev

    Some weak arguments there, Lads. Nev

    By the same token a Loss on the books doesn't help your chances of anything permanent or secure. It's not reasonable to expect use of it for free. car parking costs in many Places. Close to a Town is very convenient User Pays is a common Philosophy. emergency use is something the Council should appreciate in Keeping available and it's something for Ratepayers to Keep on Mind IF a case has to Be made to Keep the Facility..

    Murphy's Law. IF It Is possible to do it Wrong, it will Be.. In this case, before the Bolt was tightened it should have been ascertained the Bolt was through the eye by Moving The Wing up and down and checking it's movement was Limited both ways, by a positive and definite stop.. That would be a Normal procedure and there's NO Backup. Flight is unforgiving of errors and Mistakes. Nev

    I don't think that is correct. I doubt it is that effective at all. Security Has to Be effective. Todays world (unfortunately) REQUIRES it. Nev

    Councils are a good example of A failure of democracy. The structure eventually serves the people running it whose salaries are Linked to rate INCOME. Shire Officers. You need a Permit for everything and each time it Costs Money. Funny that, and the most common word there is NO. Their ability to slow things down or stop them, is Unmatched. It's a sheltered Workshop. Nev

    You will Get Airfields closed to Build Business and housing but Never the reverse.. People want the benefits with none of the discomfort. Sell off the Airport and develop it. Land values go UP and they SELL and Move anyhow. Passengers want Airports to Operate 24/7 and with International flights, that's a Necessity. Airports are High investment Land and it's got to make A return and provide a service. That's how a Modern society Functions. Nev

    It's of NO assistance when getting or renewing a Passport either, It's TIME its form and purpose was reassessed . Nev

    How can you be required to PAY for something you don't GET? Nev
