Hmmm. & then give all those airport operators out there the ability to send us bills for landing - no thanks

Ya gotta stop talking about me, behind my back, but i'll still give it

Don't worry Tubbs, planey responded.

He probably picked that word up after a nite on the town, but could'nt spell it quite right:angry:

Out of interest, I clicked on the aircraft registrations tab, to find that it only covers GA aircraft.

I've sometimes seen a light sport aircraft that was of interest, and wondered if there is an easy to use list, to find out it's type, and who it's registered to, etc; by simply punching in it's rego number?

Two people, a man in his 40s and a girl aged 16, have walked away from a light aircraft crash near Geelong.

A Rural Ambulance spokesman says the plane burst into flames after landing and was totally burned out.

It's believed the plane may have hit power lines as it was approaching Grovedale Airport around 11am (AEST).

The man suffered a cut to his head while the girl was complaining of chest pains.

These events are always sad to hear, but hopefully both P.O.B are OK.

We all know that power-lines can be hard to see, but if the electricity authorites don't provide markers, especially near airports, they have in my mind "failed in a duty of care" to take reasonable steps to minimise such events occuring.

I don't know whether markers were there in this case, or not, but I can foresee the day coming, when they will be taken to task in a court of law, and held somewhat accountable for similar unfortunate cases.

It is understandable, that they cannot cover every cable in the country, but I feel that a lot more could be done, without it costing bucket loads of money.

And speaking of Snakes-In-The-Grass, Tubb drew himself up to his full height, sucked in his stomach, thrust out his chest, tightened his corset, adjusted his truss, got a cramp, and added ".......................

"I've also got a stiff back"

"That's nothing, and is for wimps" commented Tomo The *$#& "Up here in the great state of Queen's Land (that is the little maroon bit up in the NE) we suck sav's, do things with sugar cane, breed Cane Toads and .......

Have started exporting them down south,as well as bags of sugar cane mulch.

The Federal Treasurer Mr Swan is looking at contracting a Cecil Plains entrepeneur who reckons he can build a cane-toad fence between Queens Land and the real world, for only 10 times the normal price, as it would also be an important nav-aid for flyers returning from down south, and making it his first great bit of worthwhile Astraaalian infratructure, and is in keeping with his normal budget restraints.:confused:

That'd be great the Nanna said, "I'd then only have to worry about big snakes in the grass, which sometimes take you by surprise:face and heart:".

"Where's Rat?" enquired another, but it was 7.30 pm sharp and the Rathaus was closed for the evening. The Rat was sitting up in bed watching old copies of Neigbours on an ex Wagga Wagga South Motel TV he'd bought at auction, munching lollies which he always collected from the foyer at the six months past use-by date mark, while 30 concerned firies/fairies/feyres/frees milled around the foyer trying to hand in their breakfast menus.

Many of us have stayed at some of these B & B' joints. Which really stands for "Bugger the punters, and what they demand, is Bull-sh--" while they load their out-dated lollies into their vending machines to make a quick buck.

If you want Foxtel?, simply slip a guick $50 bucks in the slot thats been provided by the management with glee $$$ :big_grin::big_grin::big_grin:.

However, the spokesperson for the Rodents Roxy Retreat Resort had a smile a mile wide, as they made a hasty retreat to the CBA to make their substancial deposit, accompanied by a long black limmo containing a whole team of musical gentlemen? carrying violin cases.:confused: and wearing dark glasses:cool:

Hi John and Sue.

Your Gazelle is looking really great.

You'll soon be heading off in the blue yonder, but you have to realise that the "blue yonder" was created partly from Johns necessary blaspheming when things did't go go quite as planned.

You both are to be congratulated for your combined efforts.

Kind Regards

Planey.

(I met you both in Ians tent at Narromine last year during a bit of precitipation, when John nicked the last of the biscuits, which I'd had my eye on)

That was great reading Jack, and thanks so much for posting it.

Probably, all the Titan needs now is another 2009 Narromine trip to get rid of the dust:big_grin:.

Kind Regards

Planey

A big :welcome:Doug.

Lots of friendly guys here, and heaps to learn from the more experienced once's within the ranks.

It can be addictive though, so it's only right that I should warn you :big_grin:.

Look forward to hearing more from you.

otherwise he'd have to make an allowance in his weight and balace checks, and apply full up trim.

"Who will open the lock?" luscious Linda lamented lustfully.

The man from Google says that with China Air most of this is possible, though he could not guarantee the stray paddock bit, but a side trip to a paddy field was often thrown in as a frequent flier award.:confused:

Well done mate, but don't expect to dream about hot chicks tonight, co's that probably won't happen. That can wait for another night.

".......thank goodness for that" thought Turbo "the old **** has missed the real story" and he set about lining up a suitable response to the embarrassing exposure of his secret life by Dettol.

Just don't use it neat, unless you disire to join the Irish dancers for a jig, replied Planey with his voice of experience,. unless you have the but still want to dance.

..... Planey with a bag full of .........

clothes as he's heading for the airport for his NT holiday:thumb_up:, but he could'nt help wondering, whether the tails that were being tugged, were those of the dapper-looking Ozzie, who looks likes he should be flying a Learjet, but not from where just any ordinary paddock will do.

Welcome aboard Rat Patrol, you'll have fun on here for sure, and probably become known as The Pied Piper.

Plastic shopping bags are not very strong. Was in a Warrier many years ago over the Blue Mountains, and a lady passenger had to resort to using one to spend a penny.

As it was leaking, the FI tried to put it through the small window vent to get rid of it, but it burst, and we all wound up smelling like The Gents at an ouback pub, amid uncontrollable laughter.

Wow! that was one powerful message, and if that does'nt make you think long and hard, nothing will.

Thanks for posting it Ian.
