....attack the Latte Set instead because they were the ones who came back from places like Aspen at the beginning of the pandemic and infected everyone they could find, so he turned his attention to the Coffee Precincts. It was a smart ove because there were six of them throughout Melbourne and the Tyros wings had both bent at different angles so he could finish up anywhere. A bit of fibreglass had broken off and caught in the siren's vanes so the siren now sounded like the reversing whisper on a Hilux. As he swayed and bounced he realised .........

........ where his most vulnerable yuppy latte target would be located.

 

He turned away from Dan's Kremlin and set a course for St Kilda, then low below the radar along the coast to Brighton and then tracked direct to Moorabbin via Bentleigh West and IFR (actually IFNH) down the Nepean Highway until he spotted the red 'Vette & Turbo's dome on the sidewalk outside Gloria Jeans.

 

bull cocked his ........

...weapons, but missed, as Turbo and his guests had just stood up and walked over to the Corvette.

The Corvette is built in Bowling Green, Kentucky and not many people know that it carries the history of the original "Stock Cars" which outwardly were standard cars, but were fitted with moonshine tanks for the night runs to New York. Every Corvette has a tiny replica of this tank with a little tap for moonshine, and since Gloria Jeans didn't sell whisky, Turbo was charging their cups.

 

It was just enough time for an ATC call to bull to "land immediately at Moorabbin Airport and report to Tower for instructions" The "Land Immediately is not used very often these days, but when it is the whole frequency [avref] goes quite and everyone starts listening intently, not to mention getting into the correct position in the circuit and staying on the correct height...............

And below is what Turdy is referring to.

 

His carries the "history" in each bent chassis rail ............ but his 'Vette is his pride and joy, so who are we to do anything other than his nurse recommended and to be anything other than supportive.

 

 

Stock Car heritage and dna at it's best.

..... and in this case the frequency (repeatedavref) also goes quiet.

 

bull, who had originally learnt to fly (avref) in sailplanes, always descended (avref) about 300 ft on downwind (avref), even when he had all of the backbreaking power of the Blue Head at his disposal, so "correct height" to bull is always quite subjective and as long as he gets down (Mavisref) he congratulates ......

......the people at  Mobile Teleprompter who fly in front of him showing all the radio calls. Quite often bull would lose track and start following someone else, yelling at them to turn the teleprompter in while the teleprompter aircraft now back in the queue had the following aircraft making bull’s calls out of synch and soon there woul be a .......

.... big issue when bull would change his call sign so as to dodge the landing fees.

 

"Is he doing a Joe Biden?" they asked (Before Joe, this was type of losing the plot had always been called "Doing a Turbo").

 

"No" said bull "It's.......

.....not personal, I like Scomo, it's a matter of economics.

And so he changed his callsign, but only when flying in to airports which charged landing fees,

So Airservices which see and hear everything everywhere would hear him calling as "bull" throughout the progress of the flight, but at the destination airport, with the same voice, accent and deflections and grammar, bull would cleverly call "Brahman Inbound"

Being Tasmania, the ATC nearest bull's home field took an interest because the couple who owned the airport which advertised "free steak breakfasts on Sundays", his brother and sister, had been complaining of this "Brahman" coming in with duct tape over the numbers, and not paying. Being an ATC, so as smart as a whip, the ATC worked out the name association and ..........

........ then associated that with bull's previous LFD (Landing Fee Dodging) callsigns (avref) of "Young Buck", "Abergele", "Pembroke", "Ankole-Watusi" (which have a particularly large horn, so bull relates), "Stud Bovine", "Wagyu", "Bucky", "Pitty" and all the way through to "Zubron".

 

"Geeez Louise (another bull nickname), his brother, sister and the ATC agreed that bull must owe the Aussie Aviation Industry (AAI) hundreds of thousands of dollars in past Landing Fees and all 3 decided to come after him and his millions in real estate holdings.

 

But bull was too smart for .........

 

A FINE COUPLE OF ANKOLE-WATUSI AND HENCE THE SIMILARLITY TO BULL, AS ATTESTED TO BY THE LADIES OF THE BONE CWA (ALTHOUGH HE ONLY HAS ONE, AS MAVIS POINTED OUT). ALSO NOTE THE INSCRUTIBLE LOOK THAT IS TYPICAL OF OUR BELOVED bULL.
