I only get jealous at airshows, especially when a mate flys a hornet !

Re: Aerospace engineer that I mentioned, I often type this when im talking about aviation out of habit. For what it is worth I have been involved in "aerospace" engineering for many years and have been involved in the design and development of various general aviation aircraft. Along with experience in aircraft maintenance and avionics, the moment someone mentions weight and balance my sub conscious takes over, I guess I have seen to many aircraft crash due to people disregarding advice and doing something there own way. Don't take it personaly boleropilot and if I have offended I do apologise.

Thought you fell off a mountain.

Congratulations Matt

Might wanna change your sex to male in your profile

Welcome Matt

Should have jumped into the valid and hitched a ride

EGYPTAIR says a passenger has been detained after storming the pilot’s cockpit on a flight carrying 150 passengers. The Friday incident took place aboard charter airline CairoAir 462. Passenger storms pilot’s cockpit

Looks like you won't see an airshow then, all airshows have aeros

Hope your going to Avalon next year Dave, Seem to always run into you down there.

Doh. I thought I had some awesome super powers

Didnt you post this the other day? I remember reading about the lake incident a few days back. Sure I have read the same post, ahhh I think.

WATCH: Apache chopper rescued by Chinook

Some website verification emails do take a while to come through. I have had one come through hours later. Just depends on the server load or the mail server.

I am the same, I hate crowds and tend to avoid crowds or large groups. Love the serenity of Aireys Inlet/Fairhaven and also Point Lonsdale. I would prefer to drive 1.5 hours to work than live in the city or suburbs. Prefer the corner store than a shopping centre. Nothing beats living on a block of land with a beer and barbie over looking the ocean ! Plus with all the crap going on in this world I don't want to be in crowds!!

Welcome Darkwalker

My motto is no matter how many hours or years experience you have or what aircraft you are flying, you never know everything, for me I am learning something new every day. You make mistakes, you learn from them. Someone offers you advise or a different perspective, your learning. Every day is another day of learning something new.

I think ultimately it comes down to personel choice. It's the same as the ever lasting mac vs pc debate

Maybe we should just leave it as is, people seem to not worry about the old system, but there whinging about the new ideas.

lol Yenn suggested he was going to fit wheels to the top and he was correct.

Good work mate :) congrats

I go for the expo, being around aircraft all day every day get bored with airshows. Unless of course Freya is there Breitling Wingwalkers - THE WINGWALKERS Had dinner with her last year and she is one awesome chick !

Agree, base the ranks on the number of likes not posts.

I think there is only one option no matter what he or she says or what the regs don't say and that is if you are flying a significant different aircraft do a run with an instructor. Most schools will make you do a check ride if hiring there aircraft anyway.

Must say, i dont like the new menu as it clogs the left sidebar on the ipad. Prefer the old one.
