    what the %$#@# people like this are allowed to breed ?? this is the biggest load of drivel I have read in a long time. I love the fact that you can go to a court and say one of the following, A, B or C but there is no C ? this was 15 minutes of my life I have lost forever and can't get back. If any person ever makes any 'claim' upon your 'business' or 'self' you must never employ a 'solicitor' but simply state to the other or the court A or B or C A - It was my fault and I am sorry and if I am able, I will make restitution as I do my best to compensate the 'loser,' but I can never pay any 'fine.' B - It was your own error and thus not my fault and I cannot pay any compensation to you even if I am commanded to so do. Gary, please now consider the following: "ANYWAY" I have now found the real reason behind all of this drivel, like most religious based activities it is about money http://www.the-testament-of-truth.com/truth/web/enlight.htm it even has a link where you can make payment to continue the authors good work. Jeez

    A few of them out there in various configurations but to me they just looked wrong in the tail. It doesn't look like the fuselage is long enough and the distance is too short between the wing and horizontal stabiliser. It could just be an optical issue and nothing to do with the design but the tail end just looks to chunky/heavy when we are all trying to get the most sexy aircraft that we can. Whatever happened to Gary, I know we survived what should have been a fatal accident in New Zealand that then he just disappeared into the darkness ?

    Sorry BUT a board member is not a director

    honestly, if he was really serious he would do it with semitrailers coming the opposite direction !

    it's Australia Post. I sent something express post from Brisbane to Sydney and it took 16 days. Even though I could track it all the way and putting official complaint they said that the only thing they would do to compensate is a free express post mailbag and they wanted me to provide a receipt saying that I purchased the mailbag and from what post office, I told them that was stupid and they needed to get a life. Then they told me they would look into it and I have to provide proof of posting ? I politely told them that it was put into the express post mailbox and it was entered into THEIR tracking system. In the end I just gave up. If they get 10,000 of these every day who just give up that is a lot of money they don't have to pay out at $16 a mailbag

    According to the advice we received at our club meeting when asking who we should vote for, apparently Rod is only there for the title and doesn't do the work needed. He "claims" to be "the Director" of the company. Recreational Aviation Australia (RA-Aus) this is not true https://au.linkedin.com/in/rodney-birrell He claims also to be the CEO of topaz sport aircraft but the name is not listed with ASIC and is available for registration Yes. This business name is still available. TOPAZ SPORT AIRCRAFT Get this name now Secure it today before someone else does! whilst this does not show any criminal actions it does show that being entirely truthful and accurate about these facts is questionable. Personally, I voted for the other 2 guys but, I take my hat off to anybody who put their name forward !

    I'm sorry but I fail to understand how using left-hand Drive vehicles (of which I currently own 5) is going to make any difference to Australia's road system. Just because we go left-hand drive vehicles doesn''t mean we have to change the side of the road that we drive on ?

    Ford also offers an F-150 Lightning Pro model, which strips out luxury features, adds unpainted black plastic bumpers, vinyl seats, and enjoys a starting price of $US39,974 ($55,000) how could we get one in Australia for less than $150,000 ? they should be $55,000 plus a little bit extra for shipping and may be GST, but say $66,000 ready to roll. Absolutely no chance that this could ever happen in Australia

    Where are the video's showing engines running ? if you go to the video channel it has zero videos looks like vapourware

    The vampire aircraft has a broken image link, just letting you know the front on image is not working

      Thank you. However they all come up OK on my laptop. Which one is it? The heading photo is black and white because it is the only suitable photo I could find of the plane in flight. The four in the middle section also come up OK for me. 930 profiles and I've never had a problem like that before. The photos are all uploaded to Ian's server.

    the report that I read was that the movement was so aggressive no amount off force on your feet could stop the rudder moving

    ?? What is the "usual place"
  18. FlyBoy1960
    I think you mean they are designed to whether cock ?

    Yes of course, It's like a huge trim tab but at the front of the aircraft rather than the back. I remember reading about some very fast aircraft in the US that with the flow without wheel pants even though it is a requirement of the manufacturer. On rare occasions the wind would catch the front wheel doing 150 kn and turn it to the maximum limit instantly. It caused some of the doors to blow in on the aircraft and people actually got hurt because the heads hit the doors or reach other. The response was extremely violent. I will see if I can find the article, it was on the EAA website

    this is the problem with newly all of the people in our segment of aviation (including myself) we are all too old, worn out and put away wet ! I would much rather see complaints coming through that people needed to shave for the first time or something like that looking forward to a career or hobby in aviation rather than dropping off because we are past our use by dates.

    Who cares, they are having fun and not growing old behind a keyboard like the rest of us !

    especially in the USA, let's say the guy was pulled out of the wreckage but became a paraplegic and he would sue the rescuers saying that the way they pulled him out of the wreckage caused his paraplegia. A lot of people in the US are simply afraid of litigation to offer assistance in an accident

    I had a straight tail 182 for years and I know they are heavy, but they are not that heavy you can't control them. This guy was a pro from what i am seeing online
  24. FlyBoy1960
    I think he is off on A tangent because he seems to be so personally invested. I have never seen an aircraft where you cannot overpower the trim, I doubt it would even get through certification if it was something close because there are limits on the amounts of control forces that are allowable through the design

    I knew you were going to say this even before you did! The little chip you had implanted during your injection told me. Seriously, I agree with you. It is now gone too far not to get vaccinated
