    it could be an old hoax passed down i guess. if it is the locals up there really believe it.

    you draw a lot of conclusions from a grainy photo. the story is he put on a demonstration in a park and the town turned out to watch. there were reporters there so its quite possible there would be a photographer.

    yes. i thought the photo looked a lot like a wright flyer without an engine. but i got that information from locals that have passed the photos down through the generations and they say they are correct. if it is true then it is still not sustained powered flight.

    the cheapest hangar for mb might be to dig a hole with a ramp entrance and put a roof over it. might need a pump and float switch when it rains. i have seen a similar concept where the roof was a swimming pool that moved aside for vertical takeoffs.

    all the container workshops I have worked out of over the years have stood up to the weather with no problems. Heaps of contractors use them and quite often fill in one end to stop the wind. Do you know of them failing.

    Excellent, thanks p m

    you can close in the rear of the sea container shed. surely 2 containers from geraldton would not be too expensive freightwise. but each to his own, i am sure you will come up with a solution that suits you.

    i don't know if its a glider or human powered. there is no mention of propulsion but they say it ascended 160 feet at an astonishing 10 mph.

    wondering if anyone has information about this flight conducted in nsw . it was in 3 different newspapers and the nerandra library has information . the articles may not be in order but should be interesting for aviation history buffs.

    2 sea containers with a roof across the middle heaps of those setups around wa. I like them because you end up with storage each side and your hangar in the middle.

    i am confused, are you keeping it the shire airstrip. i thought you were flying out of your place. at west sale airport they have concrete blocks you just drag out to where they are needed and tie the plane to them. the wind howls through there and they work fine.

    What's your point. We know jabs are slippery. That aeropup can land in a paddock. Can a j230 do that without folding up the nose wheel and cartwheeling

    this is what trump did according to this reply in a discussion about trumps outburst. On your 2ND DAY, you 1. Fired the head of the Transportation Security Administration, 2. Fired the entire Aviation Security Advisory Committee, 3. Froze hiring of all Air Traffic Controllers, 4. Fired 100 top FAA security officers.”

    i have friend with one . i will ask if he can take as picture tomorrow. will depend on how easy it is to get too in the shed.

    It amazes me how a country of 300 million don't have better options for president.

    Don't show it too much unless you want to get inundated with orders

    what is it , looks like a tornado crossbred with a bantam.

    i was told the raaf aircraft in our area know exactly where we are long before we see anything.

    How the hell did a military chopper get in the way of an airliner.
  22. BrendAn
    We get a bit carried away in here. Just cut and polish like you said at the start. Finish with a good quality wax.

    That's why we love 2k. I used to paint machines in industrial enamel. It only lasted a year or 2 before it faded. 2k was a leap forward when it came out.
  24. BrendAn
    It's hard wearing and retains gloss for a long time. If you want easy repair you paint in acrylic. Is that even still available. I don't know of anyone spraying cars in anything but 2k

    Lots of things have cyanide in them. Why would you be spray painting without a respirator
