  2. Going to be an FW190 at wings over illawara this month
  3. I am wondering if an itunes backup would save the app along with everything in the app? Then you can just sync the new ipad, I never connect the ipad to the pc so im not sure if its possible.
  4. But he needs to get them off the device first then upload them to the new device.
  5. Flying is safe as long as your not a d**khead and treat the aircraft with respect. Never fly outside your experience, training and limitations.
  6. Think he has a collection of user waypoints and not just a single plan with the waypoints.
  7. iCloud? Dropbox? iTunes Backup? I think ozrunways has dropbox intergration?
  8. Here is a larger pic and you can clearly see something hanging out the back, I have heard the bloke flying it was from Tasmania. This pic was taken by someone at the festival.

  10. Yep, media would not know the difference between a powered and non powered hang glider.
  11. A Qantas flight from Melbourne to Dubai has back-tracked to Sydney Airport after flying halfway across the country before encountering engineering problems. The A380 landed at Sydney Airport about 6.50am on Tuesday, more than eight hours after it left Melbourne. A Qantas spokesman said there had been a "slight vibration issue" with one of the engines on the QF9 flight. http://www.smh.com.au/business/aviation/qantas-melbourne-to-dubai-flight-circles-for-hours-before-returning-to-sydney-20160404-gnydy4.html
  12. BOEING has run into more problems with its 787 Dreamliners, including fears a problem with airspeed data displays could send aircraft into a mid-flight dive. The United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has taken the rare step of issuing a safety directive to pilots flying Dreamliners, warning them to avoid abrupt flight-control commands because of unreliable airspeed indicators. http://www.news.com.au/travel/travel-updates/concerns-raised-over-incorrect-airspeed-data-readings-on-boeing-787-dreamliners/news-story/61af275009c273532dbefd6d0f6ac64a
  13. That is further away from it, it seemed to happen right at the wind farm. So not sure, but you could be right. the accident happened on Bald Hills Road Tarwin Lower but Geoff Goldsmith and Michael Carmichael have there Fish Creek strip on Harding & Lawsons Road Fish Creek so there is a fair distance between the two.

  17. Ey? You mean it's the cellular version and you put in a sim such as Telstra? Only the new ones have the apple sim built in, I think your meaning the cellular version that nearly all of us have due to the gps.
  18. Anyone updated there iPad to the new iOS ? This new night shift feature is awesome, puts a yellow tinge to the screen is really good on your eyes when flying at night. Also anyone purchased new 9.7" pro?
