How far is Temora?

[Chu Mai Huang]

Well, according to the RA-Aus Pres in his latest magazine (P3) it's just 250nm from BN, 100nm from SY, 50nm from CB, 120nm from ML and 480nm from AD.:eek:

Well, one out of five aint bad, I guess?

Reminds me of the time a mate was chatting to some guys who landed in a Jabiru:
"where ya going?"
Griffith.
"ahh, you're AT Griffith."
No, no.
"ahh, yeah, see that sign that says "Griffith Aero Club"?
Oh.:(

hahaha. that reminds me of a guy i saw at Jabiru in NT. i asked him where he is off to and he tells me Jabiru. I had a good laugh then told him he just landed here and he thought he was at maningrida.

WAY OFF

What I want to know is how some of these guys can find completely the wrong aerodrome with complete accuracy. :eek:

Praise Allah for fixed pitch props and fixed undercarriage :)

Temora is as far away as the length of a piece of string

[Jabawocky]

Agreed GG

My Calibrated Piece of String says 522nm for me +/-1nm :ok: or about 180-200minutes.

I am just as guilty at times but before publishing stuff like that it really would pay to check your units of measure.

I suspect they were meant to be approx. Minutes ETI from around SEQ to YTEM for example in your typical 100-120 knot machines.:ouch:

480 Minutes from AD?:eek::eek:

[Jabawocky]

Good Point Arnold!

would be 220-250 minutes if that was the case....... Maybe they got that one right! The rest look like minutes.

We all just wish AD was that far away!:E

[Arnold E]

AD must be the one that's right! :ok:

HA HA Maybe we wish WE were that far away:)

Who's flying an RA a/c into ML?
