Oscar Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Not a Jabiru, so not of interest... despite the fact that it appears he did a damn good job of picking a soft spot. . Anybody have a clue to what it is? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yenn Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 So why is it not of interest because it is not a Jabiru. Are you not interested in what can go wrong when you fly. Oh sorry you probably don't fly, just sit on the edges and snipe at others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I read Oscar's post I noticed that it was two days since the original post and that no one else had commented. I took it, and agree with Oscar, that it is notworthy for nothing to have been said about this incident on this forum for two days. Had it been a Jabiru incident (engine or aircraft) we would be on about page five of comments by now! 2 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yenn Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Retarded is easy, not so sure about advanced. Too much advance could lead to detonation. Maybe that is the Muslim way. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
