There are old pilots and bold pilots, if you were a bold pilot you normally get don't to be a old pilot, except for you guys. The flying I did with a crazy mate of mine in a 182 in the early 80's who was at that time mustering cattle in the Outback. Full rudder deflection at 150 at 100 ft all, full afterburner elevator into a steep turn then stall warning blaring then full 40 flaps nose pointing down, rinse and repeat. 40 years ago is all good fun. Now are you crazy! He has retired after a career culminatinating on the 380.
@RealMarkLatham@Sauronlordking I remember at one dawn service in old Kalgoorlie town and listened to screaming drunk aboriginals at the dawn service. I was so angry at them. Now we have put up WTC hence I haven't been for 2 years.
@AvidCommentator@Bwallace_esq You are so right Tarric, the only 20% of the world's oil goes through the straights, and it is fine until you realise it's 90%+ of what we burn, hard times ahead.
@AvidCommentator Top your car up every day, rationing will be in next week. Don't hoard, just keep full tank. 12 litres feels less painful than 50. We are in a world of pain and I can't see it getting better for a while. Not my first rodeo, I'm 64, lived it all.
@AvidCommentator No doubt, the problem is the people with half a brain and grey hair have seen this country getting sucked into sewer over the last 50 years. A controlled media made that easy, not anymore. Jim is talking about reform, lube up people, and we going to get it.
@MCCCANM Dead right mate, we are in a "not great situation" here at the moment here in Aus. A succession of limp wristed Governments have effectively stopped oil exploration to net zero the economy, at the rate we are going it will be net zero of everything. Drill baby Drill.
