  1. Franco is still alive and well Nev, I chat with him on FB, he's still flying.
  2. One of my instructors hit the master switch off..we had just turned downwind @ Hervey bay.told me to aim at the centre of the runway, and as we got closer to start aiming back towards the threshold. I ended up just doing a normal landing...it did at first scare the crap out of me . I do remember saying I was going to bash the crap out of him when we land... but I forgot to do it... Bernie.

  12. We have a pair of Magpies here with a young baby. The parent's when coming into land on a windy day turn into wind just as the let down...baby has yet to master this maneuver...comical.. Bernie.
  13. At 77 Ian I'm almost a dinosaur...but not there yet, I've been a member almost from the start I think ? As long as I can just read what's new, that's all I look at not interested in anything else...I don't normally look at video's unless they are about aircraft. Bernie.
  14. No problem with the gear box Nev. and I only have two beers home or away...motorhome weight makes it zero alcohol when driving .

  17. In a factory I worked in back in 60/70's used PVA to seal a new concrete floor. It made it easier to keep clean. And smooth as. Bernie.
  18. I have one of those valves on my motorhome. No mess when changing oil, as apposed to getting oil everywhere and dropping the bolt into the oil container, I'm talking 10Lts bit more than the average airplane sump. Bernie.
  19. I carry both metric and imperial sockets and spanners in my motorhome. And I still work at home in imperial I'm dyslexic with numbers. I have never changed from what they "tried" to teach me in school which I left in 1960. Getting a ULT certificate was hard...mainly for my instructor. Bernie.
