    Just found out my sim instructor here is an ex F-111 / F-15 pilot.
    Really nice guy.

    I told him I know a guy whom used to wash F-111s. He was very impressed. :p

    Washing is the most important part of an aircraft's performance

    Apparently a mid-air collision. Joy flight with two planes getting too frisky?

    Beautiful. Shame it's electric, it's more fun if the Greenies get upset. The landing gear looks quite flimsy...

    E-Flite foam.

    Has retracts and flaps. Pretty cool, but I really need to build some sort of runway here to use it properly.

    Did you see this article a few days back?

    https://www.news.com.au/travel/travel-updates/incidents/this-stunning-aircraft-radar-image-exposes-major-fails-by-qantas-and-virgin/news-story/b083fa1146b964229ad61182b14d2686

    They’re all hopeless now, each with about a 10% cancellation rate for Syd-Melb

    Meanwhile the US can do this with a less than 1% cancellation rate

    Image Unavailable, Please Login

    So basically they’re all the same but I would still choose Qantas over the others because of their check in process. I don’t understand why Virgin do the same. Jetstar forget it and yes it’s the snob factor, can’t stand being on a flight and listening to cheapskates complaining about the flight :p

    Having said that, I’ve been avoiding flying domestically like the plague. It’s less stressful driving to Melbourne than flying. If the government had any balls they’d let the likes of Qatar set up and then let’s see how the others go, not very well I suspect

    Qantas, we had a bit of pushback at the gate recently but then the pilot took off..
