As they had 'restrained' the streaker, why did they return to departure airport?

Does Australia only have 'facilities' at certain bases and not at 'outposts'?

They were almost half way there. There must be police at destination.

Why 'guests' not passengers. Were they not paying?

Morning folks. Sunny. Got squirrels scratching away in the roof space. Plenty of poison down so hopefully it will stop. Hovercraft, now that is a good idea. Never done mobile roaming before as we have Greek cards. However they may have run out. We are pay as you go. It seems that we just dial in a c...

A bat has returned.

On a jump flight you can carry more than the normal number of passengers. They are sitting on an empty floor anyway and you've only got the weight and balance limitations to take into consideration. Just the fact that you've taken out the seats will allow for an extra jumper. Because of all the ext...

Well said Fox. The estimate I have seen is that 40% of pupils will be removed from private schools. Can private schools run at that loss. The state education system will collapse. with the demand.

Morning folks. Bit of cloud 25 degs. Just had the internet off for 2 hrs. It was our local mast which involves sending a chap out from town. Goats have just been for their morning watering. Have just put in an enquiry about a new engine for the ship. Ours was a rebuild and now ten years since then. ...

Yes John I remember the time when the Brussels VOLMET was the one to listen too. A very sexy voice. You can be fooled though. I was operating into Harare once and the lady on HF sounded very nice. Went to see her. Must have been something to do with the distortion on HF. She was very pleasant but ra...

Thanks never dropped there. Why? Still doesn't explain the 7 on board.

The pilot was wearing a parachute! Not very confident in the aircraft.

Hang on, a C206 takes 6 not 7.

They didn't need to tie me here to prove the point.

Looks as if he may not have made it with gear down.

Boac yes I am sure you are correct come to think of it. Didn't do many.

Boac describes the two well there. Just to add that with a SRA you are just guided onto the centre line and given distances to touch down. You work out the altitude you should be at from that. Any airfield with surveillance radar should be able to give you a SRA. Indeed we once did a SRA into Warton...

Afternoon folks. Sunny. Took four attempts to pay the balance for the thatching. I always leave 24 hours between each attempt after paying a considerable sum twice (yet to be returned) a couple of weeks ago.

I think there are two different radars working together. One for the bearing and one for the attitude.

I am not sure it answers the question.

That is PAR. Precision approach radar.

Do you mean PAR or SRA?

Morning folks. Clear sky, bit cool. Was going to have a shower but I will wait until it gets a bit warmer out here. (outside shower).

I honestly do not think that he will. IF he did that would of course make them Prince and Princess. Albeit 'Princess Henry' but a pound to a pinch of whatsit she would call herself Princess Meghan.

Well that's going to be a real vote winner for him amongst the young people, much.
