Captain Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 ....received notice from the aerodrome manager thumb_down that as I fly a "Wandering Jew' Jabislew :yuk: - I will be charged for three landings (one sealed and two grass (either side)) every time I touch down. "I'll send those landing charges up to Rod, as it must be his fault if anything goes wrong, despite the fact that the most successful Recreational Aircraft in OZ is flown more hours by more blokes and bloettes each weekend without issues ......................" said some bloke up the coast.
turboplanner Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 BigheartPete joined Tubbo's state of confusion, because Le Crappe was now spitting out double bungers. Just as you start to chase one thread, another springs up. However, Tubbo had already decided he wanted no part of Nan, who was obviously the town mattress, but he had become engrossed in the invective about the Jaberzigzag, and had himself found that as long as you held your tongue out the side of your mouth, all was well with both take offs and landings. He was about to travel to the land of his ancestors for a week, after working what seemed like several hundred hours tracking problems with the power trim and tilt pump on his outboard. "You guys might have built aircraft" he said, but I'll challenge anyone to solve the puzzle of the three ball bearings, three differens springs and the 180,000 incorrect combinations. He didn't have much faith in the result, so he'd booked an hour in an interstate Jabaru, making sure he wasn't going to get a Jabazigzag, or even a Jabbabanana. He'd bought a high speed king fish lure, and was going to tie it behine the Jabba, figuring he'd cover more ground that way. Aothough he hadn't solved the problem of getting them into the aircraft yet. In fact, come to think of it, Le Crappe seems very defensive about his mate and mentor Rod, and of course without Rod, we'd all be wingless hoons running around town in utes....
Captain Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 So we return to about post # not many, where BigPete was flying the Murray with his fishing line dangling from his 160. "I can give you some tips, Tubb" he said. "Dangle your lure, hold your tongue out of the other side, hope that you stay on the tar when you land and blame Bundaberg if you don't catch any fish." "I'm a bit of a dangler" said Boggles "And I'm waiting at the gate for readmission. What do I need to do, again to find The Pebble, just up from Albury? And what are these concentric purple lines on this map thingy around Albury?" Just then the Lass elbowed her Nanna out of the way "I hear Le Crapp is into double bungers" she said "I like ..............

X Zone marks designed just for you Biggerbugle, they hypnotise you and when you get close to them you start flying round and round in circles sort of like a mosquito light" he said. Biggerbugle wasn't sure he wasn't being stitched up and decide to fly via the Ord River, which was very hard to fly. He was pleased that at least his Sheeter landed straight. "What really happens with the Jabberscrewdriver?" he asked Le Crappe, who had just choked on his Latte.....
BigPete Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 Meanwhile, the Good Friar Puk :big_grin: and PlainJaneVanillaGeoff had beens sampling the latest of Puk's altar wine. :clown: "Jeez it's gotta kick like a 170 landing nosewheel first with a 20 knot crosswind", said I'mStraightGeoff. ;):ah_oh: "Well, there's a fair crosswind now", said the Friar, :big_grin: "lets fire up the JabyJuicer and give it a go." :thumb_up: So out two heros strapped themselves in and (after preflight, of course) MidnightGeoff hits the starter. The JabiShrew bellows into life and before they know it, are at 4000ft over the WentWorthLess aerodrome. "", said Geoff - "what did you fuel up with " PiedPuk :clown: took another swig of his bottle and said - "Wow - AVGAS sure tastes funny, doesn't it " OMG, thought Geoff to himself - this will give those bastards at Shell a shake up - I'll call it JabiruJetJuice and sell it for $1.45 a liter. :thumb_up: So as the Captain :heart: choked on his 5th Latte for the day......... regards :big_grin::big_grin:
Captain Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 So as the Captain :heart: choked on his 5th Latte for the day......... .... he thought "I must have missed my invitation to that little get-together. I'll check my PM's tonight when I get back from having another late Latte or 2." "I noticed that too" said Tubb "As I don't think I received anything, and we should have noticed as both me and the Skipper have exchanged a few PM's recently." "There must be an inner sanctum in this NES caper" said Le Crapp "And it's obvious that we aint in it, so them and their dogs too." "Perhaps GuiltriddenPete and MidnightGeoff go over to Puck's joint for a private confession session with the good Friar" he added. "No" said Tubb "Although FesserPete has a fair bit to get off his chest, they actually just ...................
BigPete Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 .....just wanted to get away from all the inuendo :ah_oh: and upyourendo :confused: that was so prevalent and bogging down the flow (of a good story). i_dunno However the truth of the matter is PoorLeftOutOfTheActionPete was feeling hard done by as he was the only one (Jabiru Jocky) not having Jabiru departures :black_eye: (of 90 degrees or more to the left (not that there's anything wrong with that)). :yuk: So whilst doing T&G's to the sounds of "Come Fly With Me" and "Straighten Up and Fly RIGHT" on his Ipod, :thumb_up: DownTheCentreLinePete lands one after the other with no deviation what so ever. :big_grin: "Bugger", said BigPete to himself, "I was hoping for more bounce and spin than Shane Warne could dream of". Maybe I need more weight over the front wheel. thumb_down The Captain :heart: has all sorts of in his 230, even got an Espresso machine and 4 slice toaster in the front panel. Desperately IWantToBeAsBadAsTheRestOfYouPete reached for the 'phone...... regards :big_grin::big_grin::big_grin: My Aunt's garden is to the left of my arrival.
Guest Geoff1563861416 Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 Desperately IWantToBeAsBadAsTheRestOfYouPete:angry: reached for the 'phone and rang PlainJaneVanillaGeoff:yuk: to see if there was any more JabiruJetJuice to be had:nerd:, but the next lot of plonk to be picked is not till next week.thumb_down So I reckon we might have to try some of the Le Crapp Latte:help: and see how that goes in the JabiShrew it might give a bounce to the front wheel of the downTheCentreLinePete,s JabyJuicer and that might make up up for the fish he missed out on up Bundaberg way so as I'mStraightGeoff goes of with his crane to load more plonk onto the front weel of the caps 230
Captain Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 So both members of the inner sanctum have become active again the day after confession (my favourite girlfriend was like that years ago too) and it was agreed by all NES'ers that anyone capable of supplying plonk is to be shown complete respect. "We love you, I'mstraightGeoff (not that there is anything wrong with that) and what's more, we will respect you in the morning" was the chorus from the throng of contributors. "I don't" said Boogles "After all, does anyone really respect anybody each time they fly? Respect is a bit like preflights and weather reports, I reckon, and that's because ....... Pete's Aunt's garden is available for parking 160's and 170's if required
Captain Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 Another double bunger However the truth of the matter is PoorLeftOutOfTheActionPete was feeling hard done by as he was the only one (Jabiru Jocky) not having Jabiru departures :black_eye: (of 90 degrees or more to the left (not that there's anything wrong with that)). :yuk: This is an excellent example of the way Jabiru have designed their aircraft specifically for Australian conditions. At each Natfly you often hear the owners of other brands saying "How come this event is overrun with Jabiru's and they get all of the best parking spots?". We are now able to divulge that this is why JabJockies always opt to land short on 29 at Narromine, and when piloted with pluck and determination the aircraft will then automatically parks itself without all of that tiresome backtracking and taxiing stuff.

BigPete Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 While all this has been going on, SherlockPete has been mulling over a very strange observation. :confused: The Captain :heart: has a FOUR slice toaster in his J230. Why Two slices of toast at a time should be enough for two occupants. i_dunno Then, :ah_oh: like a darting Jabiru departing sideways from the runway, :yuk: (are we ever going to get past it?) (NO) AstoundedPete realizes the obvious answer. :thumb_up: The Captain :heart: is entertaining all three of the Riverland gals :ah_oh: (daughter, :broken_heart: mum, :broken_heart: and nana :broken_heart:) in his J230 (nee J430 minus extra seats). How could we be so blind, AnguishedPete said to himself - its so out there - 4 slice toaster and two pouffs in the back section :confused: (not that there's anything wrong with that!). :big_grin: Crikey, if Wreck A:censored: Aviation Oz get hold of this info - it will look bad for all of us, time to get the Good Friar Puk to do some hands on counseling. So ConcernedPete :black_eye: makes the call.......... regards :big_grin::big_grin:

Captain Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 (Thanx Captain :heart: - it was getting lonely here by myself) regards :big_grin: :big_grin: With AbandonedPete feeling lonely, unloved, somewhat frustrated, and taking all of post # 791 talking to himself, SelfabusePete was looking forward to the AAAA Group descending (going down? ... not that there is anything wrong with that) on Echuca in April. "I will have heaps of antique aircraft and antique pilots to play with" he said to his darling. "And because you won't let me go to Narromine this year, this will be my 1st chance to catch up with my little flying friends since Avalon ........ except when I buggered off with Geoff and the Fryer (for Puck cooked the chips that weekend) the other day without inviting my other literary mates" (And that is the reason, dear reader, that Tubb abandoned all thoughts aeronautic and went fishing in SA ...... or was he searching the Riverland for a tuber with those lasses?). "That Slovakian bloke who has always got his hands on his hose and helmet (not that there is anything wrong with that) sounds like a bit of a hunk" said ShewhoputsupwithalotMrsPete "Why don't you invite him, his metal sculpture & his sunscreen to come down, as I have a girlfriend who would ................

turboplanner Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 "...be more than happy to try to cut the corrosion out if it." "Besides, she's a keen topless sunbaker, and is used to being cooked." By now, interest was increasing in this holiday weekend, but because there had been an outbreak of bull ants at Echewga which would have played havoc with the normal underwing antics, camping had been banned, and the hosts were exhibiting some understandable nervousness about a possible influx of Chuck Yeagers in their plastic fantastics, interposed with the people who hung under rags and bones and travelled about the same speed as a seagull outboard, and Organising Pete was starting to sweat at the thought of how many cattle he was ghoing to have to rustle for the barbeque. Tuberplane whose ancestors included cattle rustlers offered to pick up some road kill for the weekend, most of it quite fresh. He'd had a trying week in South Australia blowing up a second boat motor, this time cunningly siting himself upwind from a jetty which was the only structure for several kilometres, and then his friends had grabbed himn and force fed him on crayfish and Sauvignoin Blanc for a week, and he could only waddle back over the border into Victoria. He thought he might tack his boat to the fly in as everyone else seemed to be getting closer and close to the River, and as long as he didn't blow another motor he'd probably be able to park the boat next to the Jabs, tin drums, and bits of canvas. He though about how lonely SadBigPete must be feeling, with the batteries now flat in all his Christmas presents, and becoming a major event organiser. BigPete responded by......

Just then Biggles2centsworth called in on the Coonabarabran frequency "Is that Swan Hill down there, as there are no stinguishing features around here other than that big red rock about 2000 kms NW .... what is the weather likely to be on Tuesday fortnight .... when can I come back in to the forum to play, and has anyone seen Caroline?"
