Bleeding near a weapon! Blunt object with it's weight. Not looking forward to putting the flash on it and seeing how much it weighs then! ;) -James

From the Harvard freaks: Thanks Jon, I can see Ian already doing the transplants :D

Nice shots, I was down there myself at the weekend, it's not a bad museum.

Just confirmed with a friend today that the towel is indeed there to absorb the leaks.

Haha, Ive lost count of how many times things like that have happened to me. If you wait, it will wait, If you have to go, it will aswell!

you lucky bustard, sounds like an awsome aero club, propably alot beter than CAC, whom took my 20dollars and all I get is a new letter about all these stuk up old men and there airplanes  <_<     Maby I shoudl move to nelson for ppl training :lol: Good review brock, sounds liek you had a jolly good day! :P You doing any training at CAC yet? I'm doing my ppl there at the moment :clap: and monkeybdg, sounds like you had a hell of a time :lol:

Hmm, its just that airbus doesnt make very good gap filler, go with Selleys! :P >nzflag<

I disagree, Im doing my flight training at WN and while its busy, you really learn to think and act fast when you have an A320 bearing down on you! After doing 40 hours around WLG, I flew over to Omaka to do some x country and it was a comparative breeze in terms of not having to be so concerned about traffic. I think every aistrip has its good and bad points, the only thing with WN is that it doesnt have a grass vector to do short field on. I have heard good and bad things about Kapiti, the bad things were actually about the instructors.

next thing you'll buy an airline ticket to london, and you'll get transported inside a shipping container. :o and to further de-rail this thread, according to Maddox, the itunes licence agreement states that you're not allowed to use the products for the design or manufacture of nuclear weapons...

Cool video, the Vulcan is my Dad's favourite aircraft as he has told me he used to watch them flying around real low at an airbase in Linconshire, England when he was younger. He took me to the RAF Henderson (In London) mesueum to go inside one a few years back too- love the HP V series!

The U.S. Navy's "Advanced Super Hornet" will tie together an electronic attack system with a powerful new radar that would allow the aircraft to find, deceive and, perhaps, disable sophisticated, radar-guided air-to-air, surface-to-air and cruise missiles. Moreover, it could do so at ranges greater than that of new U.S. air-to-air and air-to-ground weapons. Silence about these key features of the Super Hornet's advanced radar and integrated sensor package is being broken by U.S. Navy and aerospace industry officials just as the President's budget faces scrutiny by...

That scheme wouldn't look half bad on the FS9 model either ;)

I will definately record some of it :plane: , and will try my best not to puke all over the canopy.

Its interesting because I think that the H300 is quite a daunting ship compaired to the R22, Ive flown both, while the 300 is slightly easier to fly, the R22 is the better training machine. You can actually use the 300 for more things because the 3 blade system makes it more stable when you have loads on board. The R22 can barely be used with a sling load. Choppers definatly require more skill to fly than fixed wing.

I believe this was the incident? :D

Surely the best plane in AFS' fleet no? One advantage is it doesn't actually have Ardmore Flying School written on it anyway so you can always pretend that it's your own plane when you turn up at some out of the way airfield. :P hahaha, thats the reason u try and take it away to places where you'll be seen in it.... Yeah the best plane in our fleet by far....... even though its cursed........ no more shall be spoken of the curse....

Jon - do you have a time of arrival for Paraparaumu and Wellington? Or is there some info somewhere I can look up? Would love to see it arrive.

Pa24-180 built in 1960 and has the con #2289. Hope that helps Nunner Hey Nunner, can you tell us how you got that? try that link and if no good come back to me. Nunner
