You don't even TRY to understand. I've asked you to Drop it but you just persist regardless. I'm disappointed you support him, Thruster. . I try to help find facts. That's why I come here in a general concern for safety You're really arguing over NOTHING. I said I USE Google a lot but not everything that comes up is the genuine thing. That's ALL I'm bloody saying FFS.. Get REAL. Nev

Did He make it? Find out in the Next fascinating episode of "How was your LAST flight?" I don't know if I've had mine yet. Nev

Drop it will you? This sort of thing puts people off posting here. It's just a $#!&^* interrogation. Wake up to yourself. Nev

I think YOU are over reacting Danny. Of course Google is a useful search engine I use it all the time but you can't TRUST everything that Pops up on the NET. Nor is the University of U tube the Last say in everythjng . It's JUST not THAT easy. Nev

Try to avoid hitting Wedgetails. Nev

I'm sure we've all had fuel gauges where the LAST 1/2 disappears faster than the First half. (Hinged float arm).. In practical terms there's little you can do about it. With long thin wing fuel tanks, readings are all over the Place. You just rock the wings to see if there's still some fuel there. Your main consideration is How much you started with. How long you have been in the air and what your proven fuel consumption IS.. Based on use in practice and recorded over a considerable period or the POH figures . Nev

As far as I know In Basic aircraft, the only fuel gauge you can calibrate is one where the fuel level is marked on the side of the container and drain all Useable fuel and add known amounts and mark it at intervals.. As a general rule fuel gauges cannot be relied upon to be that accurate and can NEVER be used as a determination of fuel on board at the commencement of a flight without other back up. Nev

When you have switched, the TEST comes at Divided Road intersections. Motorbikes have the most variations with gear change location and Patterns With planes instructors have to be the most versatile. You might fly 6 different planes in a day and from whatever seat required.. They ALSO have to be ready for students doing weird things without notice. 3 cheers for GOOD Instructors. Nev

Agreed. Nev

It had to be one or the other and innovators are leaders not followers. I'm definitely Right handed No way could I paint a picture or do a drawing with my left hand but never had an issue with going left to right seat in Planes or changing hands for the throttles or starting engines from either side. I guess most people are different to a certain degree. IF you HAD to I think you'd try hard and have some success. I never thought it would happen, but I do type with both hands. Nev

We must live in different worlds. nev

SO... We have NO idea whether they make a profit or not. IF it's a service to the Public try telling the People who will never use it why THEY should pay/subsidise special users. It's the ATTITUDE of Melbourne Airport DEMANDING it be Underground. that raises my IRE. That place is a Licence to Print Money. Nev

There's a Place on the way to Maryborough, Pyrenees Hwy "Receding Airlines". . Nev

It was a GENERAL statement. Helicopters can be an exception too. I've met Pilots who don't do well in a LHD car in their proper environment. and some who get their hands mixed up when they change seats. . Nev

The Peter Abeles one in Sydney wasn't a raving success. . Nev
