  1. Somebody gets it.
  2. I thought this was just great.
  3. Thanks Kevin. Lets presume the waters get a bit warmer through whatever means, will the reef not merely grow further at it's southern end? Don't mean to sound simplistic, but I am not aware of the factors controlling where coral grows. My main issue with it is that it's a cop out. Cowards use it as a social guilt weapon rather than debating the facts. I'm sitting here laughing at the similar labeling of Geologists by the same people who will offer the nonsensical "97% of Scientist" line, Geologists ARE scientists. "Twenty years" has already passed and I'm laughing at today's hysteria. One telling factoir is the financial and insurance institutions are still working normally re; areas that will supposably 'disappear' in 20 years due to alledged rising sea levels. I kind of think they are critical thinkers and do deep, independent investigation surrounding these claims, yet haven't backed off at all.
  4. Well after passing through Hong Kong Airport for the umpteenth time late last year, I wouldn't worry about a lack of Jumbos if you glance over at the freight carriers on the other side of the runways.. You can see numbers of them on Google maps ..
  5. Linking to a radical climate change hysteric's website does you no favours. Here's a task for you, prove this statement from the article you just linked: "One survey of earth scientists found that while 97 per cent of actively publishing climate scientists agree humans are changing global temperatures" Warning, you may not like the facts surrounding that oft quoted 97% figure.
  6. You just supported Flying Binghi's proffering, anyone who dares question Climate Change is to be dealt with using personal abuse and tearing down. Is it totalitarian'ism, or just itellectually incapable of forming a debate with facts? Speaking of Reef damage, what happened with that starfish infestation that was doing all the damage a few years back, is that still going on?
  7. I support Nationalism, if that's how it works out then that's my tuff luck. Upon saying that there's more than one way to skin a cat. Strange, I feel hungry sudenly.
  8. Have spent a few months of working out a co-operation venture with a very well known and long time established aircraft company, and how to establish in the main market, the USA, otherwise. That's all about that for the moment, but this co-operation should open up a pathway for success.
  9. You might be better off waiting a year or two to see which one of these electric verticopters, that are being feverishly worked on right now, actually makes the grade. Won't be cheap though.
  10. Well no more female jokes around here from me then ... I've seen numbers of videos of Ultralights on floats, I suggest you Youtube that search term.
  11. Interesting, flat twins are inherently self balancing for primary, as one side's action cancels the other side out. Secondary 'should be' minor in a flat twin, again due to each side damping the other side, but certianly a small rocking action is there due to cylinder offset, exagerated by alternate firing. The numbers out there, Ural, Citroen, BMW, stationary engines, etc. are mostly known for their smoothness and long lives.
  12. Yes, I find that annoying only in that I am very diversified and often seek information on a wide variety of subjects. What this means is I often sign out of Google and use the same search terms without Google thinking it knows what I want based on previous searches. Scary? .. no it's not. America has been doing that for decades before the internet came along, the Senate Communist hearings for example it's just easier for them now. McCarthyism - Wikipedia The "greatest free country in the world" (sic) hey ...
  13. The engines are clearly based on Jabiru with their own crankcases, the air cooled being Jabiru heads and the water cooled being Rotec Jabiru water cooled heads. If they use Jabiru and Rotec parts, or copy make their own, I don't know. Would be amusing to find the price for their twin is the same for Jabiru's 4 cylinder, quite possible coming out of Germany.

  14. hello good friend, I Bex am good enjoy China country best! i have holiday now long time not see while for see sights best in China, I happy not worry me absent.
  15. And it has absolutely no effect at all other than if you're 90 years old you get a Depends advert and if you're 25 you get a Hyundai i20 advert, again, who cares. I can't believe anyone feels they are important enough that any Government gives 2 tosses about you, you're not, they don't. Here's my lot for today; to my worker I will be 10 minutes late to my wife a hugs and kisses emotion a friend in Australia about doing my back in yesterday morning but better today a video of my Grandson from my Daughter a business conversation about a 3D printer purchase. a decision to move that stolen uranium to Nth Korea by submarine or not WHO CARES.
  16. You mean they will know I texted my worker today to say I will be there in 10 minutes, and sent my Wife a kisses and cuddles emotion??? OH MY GOD!!!!!! Firstly, so what, who cares. Secondly, if you think every Western Government doesn't do it, then I got some very bad news for you, I suggest you Google Australia Data Retention Scheme. Wait, the bliss of ignorance might be a better call.
  17. Everybody in the world sleeps with 2 layers of cover. That is also a blanket statement. SK confirmed the death of two people in a plane crash in the Republic of Khakassia – Russia news today
  18. This plane incident, or your avatar?
  19. Guys, Drop everything and get WeChat on your phone now. Forget about the rest, WeChat is the biggest in the world and expanding rapidly, and will be a part of your lives that you don't even know yet. There isn't a shop, restaurant, hotel, taxi, Uber ... you name it that you can't walk into or use in China and pay for any product or service by simply opening your WeChat, scan the DataMatrix code and you're done in seconds. This has literally changed the entire payment process in all of China in under a year. There are some shops that even refuse to take cash now. And they are just about to hit the entire world. They are having the same impact as smart phones did - and you know how many of you, including me, said you would never use a smart phone .... And that's besides the free calls or video calls, text messages, pictures (well with any WiFi anyway). There isn't a person alive in China who doesn't have WeChat, I go weeks without actually making an actual phone call because I do 98% of everything through WeChat, messages, calls, video calls to my Missus and Kids in Oz, etc, including business conference calls etc. You can or not, upload your own pictures, with mini blogs if you like, it's like Facebook but only the people who you have added can see, and you can limit them to if they see that info or not. A girl added me last night for business (3D printers, get your minds out of the gutter) and I could see her personal pictures just after she added me, then a minute later they were blocked from my eyes. Numbers of people use it to sell product in that manner, but you don't see any of that unless you specifically click on that person and then you can chose to add or not, there's no PopUp Adverts or any other encroachments. You can search for friends usually in a 20km radius, Female or Male filters if needed, although that will yield 95% Chinese people at the moment until WeChat gets more established outside of China. The people who show up have their friend search on also. There's Group Chats as well, bunches of RAA or Rec Flying Members can be in contact constantly. That's not for me though, I hate looking at my phone and seeing 58 unseen messages. If you want to test it, download and install it, then just add me after you install it. - Mongrel99 I'll tell you where to go, then you'll really know it's me! WeChat - Free messaging and calling app By the way, WhatsApp is pretty good, but not a patch on what you will be using WeChat for very soon, that you don't even know you will be yet.
  20. Belt on at all times, always did but even more so after a nasty turbulence flight that saw a few people go flying. A very tight belt also supports your back on long flights, and if you extend it all the way, I can put it around my shins with my knees under my chin and sleep for a short time in less discomfort than some other positions.
  21. Some interesting news coming in the near future guys, stay with it, chipping away. I am moving into what I am terming the 'Production Factory' next week. The 1000 M2 factory is near finished, the offices not quite there yet.
  22. You know Vans 'quick build' kits are built in the Phillipines
  23. Answering a question no one asked is the problem. I would have been impressed had it ever flown, maybe it has but i can't find anything towards that being a fact. In the meantime, I am still impressed by the similarly named Pitbull ...
  24. This isn't a Kung Fu thread?
