  1. My partner reckons there ought to be an antidote available for this site, it's infectious to many like me. You get up in the middle of the night for a pee and you have to log on to see what's new. I'm not complaining, I like it that way. Thanks Ian:thumb up: Rgds planey
  2. That's a light load Frank. You should take a look at their trains. No goats, no chickens, no mother-in laws. Should get off the deck in no time.
  3. Certainly wasn't mine. But I only fly responsibly, and have never flown near a nudie beach or near people who feel inadequate. (so far)
  4. Impressive! Innovation is what progress is all about. Don't worry Frank, all good, otherwise it would be in another thread which we don't want to think about.
  5. Yea Frank, all 4 of them.
  6. [quote="cscotthendry, I'd love to give it a go! You and me both. Looks a reeeeal buzz! Need a soft landing though because of my crook back. Noticed the jet-ski boys were never far away, which was good.
  7. No good for RAAus registration as it has four enjines for a start, but is amazing to watch in flight if nothing else. Maybe a future pro-jet (spelt incorrectly) for Mick. The Incredible Flyboard Air
  8. I have one of these which has given good service. 200 channels programmable and will scan in selected bands. I bought mine off ebay cheap many years ago. Just found this one if your interested 1 items found from eBay international sellers REALISTIC PRO-2022 200 CHANNEL DIRECT ENTRY PROGRAMMABLE SCANNER Radio Shack AU $46.13 0 bids +AU $32.17 postage See more like this 2d 2h left (Tuesday, 12:09) From United States Customs services and international tracking provided Rgds Planey
  9. It let the all older folks in the area know that their hearing was still working! I always loved the earsplitting crackle sound when a VC10 was close to V2 with the engines developing twice the power of QE2 they say, but at somewhat different RPM's. The BAC Lightning doing a vertical climb was another good one, if noise turns you on.
  10. :welcome:Good to hear from you. So whst do you fly?
  11. Luck B*****d that sounds greead
  12. Email photo to yourself which normally makes it smaller, save attachment to your pics, then attach that smaller file to your post. Should work, hope this helps. Rgds Planey
  13. Yea Mate, but behave yourself, or you might get a right hook.
  14. Check out this drone video from Colorado. It's absolutely stunning and by far the best ive seen. https://vimeo.com/186483277
  15. Looks like the usual journalistic BS to me. Are pollies exempt from flying in an RAAus planes. It's not worth a fortune whichever way you look at it .But I suppose it's good enough to make a few headlines short of WW3 being declared.
  16. Autosol works well on plastic headlight covers to remove the yellowing. Plenty of elbow grease needed, so don't envy you with about 1/2 a sq/mtr to do. An old watch repairer that I used to work with used Autosol on the plastic watch-glasses, and finished off with brasso. They normally came up looking like new.
  17. Congratulations Captain! Enjoyed your journey that you've posted on here. Wadya saying, the Jabiru's not a fancy plane? Expect a bit of flack from those who own and love them. Rgds Planey
  18. Is that the sane and insane totals? If so I quite understand.
  19. Made a post tonight after a total of about 3,015 and suddenly noticed my total had dropped to 2,623. Just seemed a bit strange?
  20. Good job someone has a few brains, but difficult sometimes to transfer knowledge. Glad you made it back OK.
  21. Eventually made contact with my friend, but she retired a few months ago and apparently was employed by ACT and in a different department. Sorry if I built up your hopes, but she can't help. We can only wish the best for our mate Ian. Just wanted to help if at all possible. Kind Rgds Planey
