    Indeed, but its still a very very bad idea even on non teetering heads for most pilots, I've never heard of a specifically aerobatic helicopter regardless of rotor system is in use. The bloke in the MBB BO105 always impressed but its a very niche area

    Yeah one of the reasons aeros in a Helicopter aren't a good idea for most Helicopter/pilot combinations. Negative G is a no-no

    I know you weren't converting SS Different Bushel SS...? https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/bushel&ved=2ahUKEwiL9O7Y2tGMAxWOQEEAHcjfMNcQFnoECDQQAQ&usg=AOvVaw2ex-it179YfJ2XJWqV69aI

    Metric is easy, no system is as straightforward as metric, all you have to do is move the decimal point around...everything is just multiples of 10 innit But converting stuff from one system to another (usualy trying to convert to your familiar system) is of course a different matter, I'd be completely discombobulated if you stuck an altimeter graduated in metres in front of me How many Litres in a Bushel???

    No requirement to be truthful when marketing in 21st century, but that nonsense is a rather amateur example. A combination of normal commercial bollox and language translation issues perhaps in this case

    You're clearly basing your message on what the media has fed you, having spent 2 years there I can see your post is not from personal experience. They have massive social problems but its not the allamo on every street

    100 centimetres is exactly the same as 1000 millimetres, so apart from the grammar what's your point?

    Not according to the link you posted...you need to negotiate a purchase above and beyond your land ownership. In other words owning the land doesnt mean you own the airspace

    14.5mm dia is awfully large, got a pic of the stem?, or do you mean just the flared section is that wide? Try warming it with a hair dryer first

    Litigeous types have no sense of humour and these days the world runs scared of them

    Id be tempted to announce myself as an RAAF PC-21 intending a low and slow pass next time...just add 'tally ho!' at the end of the call and none would ever know

    The thing with Jabiru engines Is doubling the amount of them fitted probably halves the likelihood of someone buying😁

    I agree they were as bad as every USA administration I can remember. Thanks for illustrating Skippy's point on how we got to this awfull situation.

    Have you got hold of the wrong end of the stick there matey? (I mean regarding what TDS is supposed to mean)
  19. Red
    In my opinion TDS is a rather childish put down term directed towards people rightly concerned that a nutcase has been given perhaps the most powerfull position in the world. The term is almost always used by those who agree with some of Trump's behaviour. Perhaps you could elaborate on your position in more detail than simply throwing out the TDS insult?
  20. Red
    Yea I was also confused, then noticed Skippy's statement following those points... "The last three are demonstrably in the best interests of the nation as a whole, being an investment in the populations current & future well-being and competitiveness." . .... agree completely with Skippy's thoughts on how despotes can get into power, it takes a very messed up population to actually believe in and vote for such a blatantly sick individual as Trump.

    Need to deal with these Drug sales bots somehow. Odd that it only seems to affect the Aus/NZ discussion part of the site, makes it feel like targetting
  22. Red
    Yea, I don't use that site, but point taken

    Pretty much the same proportion still havn't woken up to the fact their guy is taking them for a ride so looks like those millions were and remain extremely poor judges of whats the lesser of 2 evils. Zero sympathy for them
  24. Red
    Good for you, I have been trying to eliminate my contributions to that country's economy too. It's not just Trump, I know some good people in America but 49% of the US population still support the scumbag

    Short video of the wreck being retrieved from the roof. https://www.fire.nsw.gov.au/incident.php?record=recQn0hkFgTcgnsKt Looks like lower rear fuselage impacted just behind the cabin into the the top edge of the hanger likely stalled, and then just flopped onto the roof
