I guess some passengers had to grab their luggage so they could get their brain to take with them. A hell of a lot of darwin awards for the taking.

looks nice- love the paint job. What sort of hrs did she take to build without paint? what are your performance figures?

Unfortunately it is only ever a treasonous act when it is done by the left, otherwise it is just good politics. Illegal acts seem to happen here all the time in a effort to subvert justice or try and engineer the downfall of a government when Labour are in power. But they never seem to get proper attention from the fed police or media. Eg Utegate - the use of a blatent lie by Turnball and a pulblic servant Gordon Grech to try and bring down Rudd. No charge brought but heaps of laws broken. Peter slipper affair- Mal brough is still at large and no charges have been laid even though he admitted it on Tv. My guess is the case will run out of time some how. Not forgetting all the other dirty illegal money laundering for donations by the Liberals- charges are none. If it was a Labour , Greens, anyone else it would be hell to pay. Justice is very blind to the facts and whats legal in this country. The separation of powers are completely ignored by the LNP.

looks like something by Lippicsh?

Get a real car Phil something actually worthy of the name classic. This is what I want Classic Alfa Romeo set to fetch more than £20 MILLION at auction A mere 20 million pounds

Out of my budget at the moment sadly. Currently stuck making prop sounds in my dreams. But I do have a air riveter- fantastic thing they are and damn less painful on the finger joints.

Reagan was a complete failure and doomed America to a right wing view of the world that has incarcerated millions and destroyed the futures of millions of families. He also came up with Reaganomics- the idea that tax cuts to corporations and the rich would trickle down and help the poor. All bullshite and proven as such. Except come last election when Malcom thought it was a great idea and found lots of fraudulent so called economics experts that it would work. The only nice thing about Reagan that can be said -is he was actually already suffering dementia whilst president so has some kind of excuse. Trump is a egomaniac who has built his empire on lies and ripping off people. The so called billions are fiction and relate mainly to his own valuation of his brand. He is not nor has ever been a actual successful business man in any ethical way and has built a house of cards of dummy corps and dodgy deals. All those "trump" buildings and such are actually owned by others and just use his brand name for marketing. His deals make Clive Palmer look like a paragon of ethics and legality. I would rather have Hillary anyday. And it is noteworthy that her so called crime relates to using a secure personal email server instead of the state department one which was famous for been hacked and leaked like a sieve. That is why she is not charged because she was actually keeping her stuff secure and they know it. She has the experience of 8 years in the white house, 8 years as a senator and 4 years as Secretary of State. I would see her as a very safe person to guide America and its Foreign policy. Which would you trust with the big bad red button? Hillary or a Egomaniac who has a very slim grip on reality and for whom facts are irrelevant. And as for Kevin- he would actually make a excellent head of the UN. It is not a role for a lover of bureaucracy but for someone with great knowledge of how the world of diplomacy and politics works and a brain big enough to see the big picture. Someone who will not put up with others agendas and has the force of personalty to get stuff done. We tend to forget he actually has 30 years in diplomacy and is actually extremely well regarded at the top of the UN and in all the major powers that actually decide who gets the gig. It was Rudd that created the G20, and formed ASEAN and is actually employed by the UN right now to formulate reform of its structure to make it relevant for the 21st century. He actually is excellent at this sort of stuff- the big picture stuff that matters on the world stage- there are plenty of minions below to do the paperwork. We never get to hear about this stuff because we are stuck in our little backwater thinking and partisan politics. Even those in labour that hate him admit on this stuff- he has talent and brains for it that are unrivalled. Contrary to what the press and LNP would have you believe he would if nominated be the most likely choice as Secretary General. He is the only name put forward that actually could meet the challenges of reforming the UN and would be acceptable to all 5 permanent members of the security council. Turnbull has really screwed up for Australia and actually for the UN by playing politics and denying a nomination. It speaks volumes that our foriegn minister- the only one actually in the know, wanted him to be in the running. But alas stupidity and vendettas has won the day.

Part build is always a option 2155

If it is a build your own and single seat- then I am definitely a Hummel Bird fan. Tough little bugger, fast and fun. And easy to build even for ham fisted rivet bashers like me.

And quite rightly- all one eyed bigots should be pillored with vigour and flogged with a whip.

I would think that alloy sheet is the go- easy to get, easy to apply and adds a bit of strength. A winner allround. What other mods are you thinking of? I would do some actual suspension and definitely some brakes with larger wheels to overcome obstacles like ruts and rocks rather than tripping on them. Stunt Bmx wheels are very strong and often have a disc brake - so might be a great alternative.

keep up the great work Bex. And be careful with the damn angle grinder. They can be a precise surgical instrument in the right hands or a super quick way to remove body parts- esp. with a diamond blade. I reckon such a blade could take a finger before you noticed. I hope you don't have a chainsaw.

Barnaby knows a lot about helicopters- How they can be used for electorate bussiness instead of driving a short distance from one of his offices.

Welcome back to the skies Bull. Flying is way too much fun to let the Turkeys keep you down. Fly like a Eagle mate and enjoy the GT500

Looks great Tim. Could you come up and do the new one for Badgerys creek, the buggers are way to bloody slow.

Ian, great idea and I agree the name should be "Clear Prop". Anyone who does not understand the name is either a future candidate for a Darwin award or came to the site by mistake.

Not matter how many billions you spend on computer chips and programmers- a flying turd is still a very expensive and smelly turd. On the reviews where they say it is the best- I am sure in the wide angle you can see a cattle prod been held to the pilots balls.

Not as expensive as I thought for the rivets. Hurry up and get back to paradise and build the rest. Cheers

Keep up the proper work mate. The Robert method always looks a bit slipshod to me, remember you are the one who will fly it. And you want it to do more than a 100 hours. What sort of rivets are you using and how much is 150 of them? How many are needed for the aircraft?

Pilot noted trouble before takeoff and kept going anyway. Was a big contender for a Darwin award- maybe he will have better luck next time.

I reckon its pretty fuggin ugly!

Everyone was very lucky it was a pusher. That would have been a lot of human sashimi with a tractor prop.

From the comfort of my Antipodean armchair, the reasons for his, descent speed, flight profile and landing spot are bleeding obvious. As we all know, when faced with a engine failure in such a machine a secondary safety factor immediately is faced..... The loss of seal on the sphincter valve, as such the obvious landing spot for safety will be the "Bog". As as anyone knows when this happens you are in a damn hurry to get there.

Pilot is thinking out loud " I wonder how to check how many inches of pitch I am running on the prop" Aircraft ghost thinks "I show you" Viola- just measure the gap between slices

Its OK Phil, I did mean Cameron. The born to rule brigade seem to keep breeding down here as well.
