  1. Really? I don't think so. Do you have any justification for this statement please?
  2. very sorry to hear of the double misfortune, first the forced landing, now this, but also glad that no-one came to any harm, and well done with the landing. Hope you get your stolen property back.
  3. does anyone yet know why this latest forced landing happened?
  4. do you have any more details? agree it looks good considering: they are a tough airframe. Main thing is everyone is OK.
  5. where is that? I can't find it. Thanks
  6. Steve, you could tell the insurance company to just go away until you're off the endone. Anyone on a drug like this -serious stuff- shouldn't be making important legal decisions, I suggest. And your pain and trauma does not need adding to. Try telling them to go away for a month.
  7. hang on, you've said to someone "I'm a pilot, I can fly this plane, come fly with me", they accept, and you think you can convince a court that you don't owe any duty of care?? Good luck! Let me add that I really sympathise with Steve who has broken his back and his ^&*( "mate" is suing him over some clothes or some such stuff. And also I don't think Steve is at fault in any way. Steve, you don't deserve this and I hope youget better very soon and that the legal hassles go away.
  8. possibly even such a briefing wouldn't work: it's hard for people to sign away their rights under common law! There's nothing to stop your "mate" still suing you despite them having signed a truckload of documents
  9. this is a great idea, I wish there was one everywhere

    170 v 230 v 430

    why, if i might ask?
  11. do you have any detail re the survival rates and crash numbers in the different sectors of aviation?
  12. agree with all of this
  13. I did first solo a while back, and had to resist the temptation to say "departed all runways, YIPPEE!!" I did however call "lined up and rolling, first solo". I thought I should give everyone in the circuit area a fighting chance of survival........
  14. yes they can to form an emulsion, which is what you have
  15. Steve that sounds like a nasty injury. Hope it isn't as bad as it sounds get well soon.
  16. sigh, alas, you're not alone........
  17. got it, thank you
  18. members portal? not obvious to me on the website.
  19. how is the gum tree doing?
  20. what is needed is numbers re the proportion of heat removed by air molecules taking heat away from the engine compared with the heat loss by radiation. I suspect that by far the former is greater. if not, wouldn't every maker of air-cooled engines use black anodising? Putting it another way, did Wright bother to black anodise the R3350, which was so beset with overheating problems?
  21. there's a Cessna 150 on Ebay: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/1976-Cessna-150-Commuter-/141006843913?pt=AU_Aircraft&hash=item20d4a9b009
  22. no-one seemsto have mentioned jabiru LSA, perhaps the most common trainer in Oz.
  23. no: Tom Waits if you want guaranteed success.
