  1. It's not my job to fix ignorance. You have to do that yourselves.
  2. As we thought... you "think".... as in you don't know...and you have been sprouting off your ignorance based upon that. And you people reckon Muslims are the problem???!!!! Wow!!!
  3. Do you know what Sharia Law means?
  4. What sort of crack are you smoking to think we have to change to suit Muslims any more than we have had to change to suit any other group of people? Seriously!
  5. I wouldn't argue with you...if that is what you took away from the enquiry it would be as pointless as trying to drive nails into kevlar... you have lost all credibility.
  6. Funnily enough...it doesn't stop my daughters Muslim friend from enjoying the majority of the menu provided by our non-halal MacDonalds restaurant...as most food in Australia (as previously stated) has been halal for many years due to the common sense market forces.
  7. https://mcdonalds.com.au/sites/mcdonalds.com.au/files/CYT-Salad-November-2015.pdf "We have a number of Halal certified restaurants. Only those items listed on the certificate in the front counter area and drive thru booth at our restaurants serving Halal options are certified as Halal. "
  8. Takes a special kind of person to believe this sort of rubbish. That is what is dragging this country down. Stupid people easily offended and easily led...
  9. ...Familiarity breeds complacency... If you fly the same plane as well all the time... Yep... I wonder if anyone has done a study of accident data relating to this. Quite a few very experienced pilots have been killed in an aircraft besides their own ( in a recent case almost identical but not) over the last few years in accidents which to the casual observer don't make any sense...
  10. True...but none of that holds true during an EFATO. It has time and time again been proven to be deadly. Some people have gotten away with it. They were very lucky.
  11. I think the recent thread showing an EFATO with the pilot throwing the aircraft around like it was a Spitfire with a Messerschmidt on it's tail... and the number of mature and experienced pilots who praised the pilots actions...despite said actions being exactly what the training says not to do...says it all IMO. It is a human factors issue. We all somewhere deep down seem to think we are superman...and this doesn't improve with experience rather it seems to get worse.
  12. We kinda already do...
  13. Exactly what is a "drone"??? I think the stink is about to hit the fan over there...
  14. There always is... sadly they aren't always around afterward to explain.
  15. These are all factors the pilot should have taken into consideration... My experience is irrelevant.
  16. Irrelevant to the discussion. And the answer is no.
  17. "...didn't appear to flare..." Correct. It appeared to me that he arrived at the ground before he was ready and in a rush. That they survived this crash was nothing but luck IMO. I am truly surprised and alarmed at some of the "gung-ho" attitudes displayed. Sure...we weren't there...but to my eye it is obvious this was no herculean piloting feat.
  18. I was referring to the human factors aspect displayed by the posters...in referring to the actions of the pilot in a positive note.
  19. The one hanging is at the Qld Museum at Brisbane's Southbank. They also have an early Flea inside....and a few of Smithy's smaller aircraft.
  20. I'm more than a little worried about yours (and a whole lot of others) believe that repeating the same old mistakes of the past is going to deliver anything but more of the same old BS.
  21. Correction....Between the two CRASHES.
  22. I'm seeing plenty of semblance in the Human Factors area between the two accidents.
  23. Before the aircraft reached the limit of the ridiculous bank angle exhibited it passed a flat and open area...you can see it out the front screen at about the 36 second mark. Following the 36 second mark the pilot either stalled the right wing or deliberately manoeuvred the aircraft in an alarming manner in the circumstances. The only reason I mentioned Ross' crash is to highlight the context of experienced aviators (like Ross) commenting on the pilots actions in a positive light...possibly being the reason said experienced aviators are still dying in "stall/spin" accidents despite all the training carried out to avoid these situations.
  24. If the point of impact from the photo was correct...I can't see how it could be said it was a turn back. The wreckage was only just off to the side of the airstrip. The aircraft wouldn't have had time to have turned back. My guess is that it was an attempt at the cross strip...which appeared to witnesses to be a turn back when the wing dropped.?
