  1. 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. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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
  5. 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.”
  6. 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.
  7. It amazes me how a country of 300 million don't have better options for president.
  8. Don't show it too much unless you want to get inundated with orders
  9. what is it , looks like a tornado crossbred with a bantam.
  10. i was told the raaf aircraft in our area know exactly where we are long before we see anything.
  11. How the hell did a military chopper get in the way of an airliner.
  12. We get a bit carried away in here. Just cut and polish like you said at the start. Finish with a good quality wax.
  13. 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.
  14. 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
  15. Lots of things have cyanide in them. Why would you be spray painting without a respirator
  16. In the boating world gelcoat is kept polished . Eventually it will wear thin, then it's gets a gelcoat respray or the preferred method these days is paint in 2 Pac epoxy. Lighter than gelcoat and long lasting. I thought jabirus were painted in Matterhorn white 2 Pac instead of gelcoat.. someone will correct me .
  17. its a bit of oxidising for christs sake. polish with one the many restorers avialable at any auto parts store or boat shop and wax it when your finished.
  18. its amazing how rich that country is.
  19. 3km x 60 mt if needs to bring an a380 in to carry his gold out.
  20. a bloke here has a 600 mt runway and flies a 172 off it. no trees or obstacles at either end helps .
  21. 1200 metres The runway length should be not less than 1200 metres. 25 metre turning node at each end of the runway (Figures 1 and 2). The preferred runway width is 20 metres. The maximum allowable longitudinal slope between runway ends is 2%. File Size: 141KB Page Count: 13 main roads wa recommendation
  22. depends how good a pilot you are. i need one about 50 mts wide.😁
  23. its cleaner and quicker and cheaper. epoxy is excellent for strength. even if the skyranger is epoxy it probably has some sort of poly gelcoat. any marine gelcoat restorer will do the trick. i have brought a couple of boats up like new by rubbing oil onto them. restorers probably do something similar.
