Ex F111

And then there is the station mustering dude who doesn't get the notams or read them if he does, doesn't talk (or want to talk) to anybody except the guys on the bikes, VHF truned down so he can hear the scratchy 2 way. HF? what's that, and doesn't get or want to get high enough to be able talk to Flightwatch, even if he had the patience to. "Just going to pop over here to check the mill, or that mob we saw around here yesterday."

No more the quick call to the local FS on the phone or radio.

Pops up out of the ravine/valley/soak/trees ........in front of or even close to a fast mover. If I was in the fast mover I think I'd rather not be looking out frankly, at least I'd die having fun
I know, I know, there are some very profesional mustering dudes out there, but they are not all so.

edited to fix up some code.
