Not in the ERSA but a credit card pump for Avgas and JetA has been installed and the price is not too bad compared to the coast! :ok:

Should be more of it! :D

It's only $300 when you own the plane, the rest is hidden from the wife :E

Long way to Barcy from emerald via Blackall! And... I wish I could hide the "real cost" from my wife!

I bet that credit card machine doesn't swear as good as Bub does.

So the old saying I used to hear from the Queenslanders on the Seismic Crew years ago

`There`s feckall in Blackall`

is no longer applicable?:}:E

Good to read of the new installation considering the number of Airports where the Fuel companies have pulled out over the last few years.

Both you blokes need to find a new wife, or wait until you find the right woman to be your wife. I don't get any grief from mine for the money I spend on aviation. And I don't give her any grief for the money she spends on flying........hint.

Avgas 172…..you must be fibbing :}

Brilliant thread drift
Who would of thought from a new fuel bowser at Blackall we could arrive at such a valuable, easy to understand wife presentation. Can this guy explain second and third segment climbs in a PA30, say out of Armidale last Monday in the crap weather

I think it would be described as …don't fly, stay warm in bed with the 9-Hot/6-Crazy :}

yes agree but I stumbled over the flight on Flightaware
maybe it was blue sky and the snow fell later

Washing, Ironing, Food, Entertainment

Bugger that, the old rule of if it, Floats, Flies or ****s, rent don't buy!

At least you know what its gunna cost up front, and the 'happy ending' is guaranteed!


:}:}:}:}

Anyone wanna buy my boat?

Goodness!


Obviously there's still some social dinosaurs within the G.A. community..


(I've clearly taken the wrong humour pill tonight.)


But is this stuff really that funny for our well respected women pilots?


If you're out there somewhere, Kaz3g. Your thoughts, please?

The name is Porter
15th Jul 2015, 22:24
Yes..........you've definitely missed the humour pill, maybe even the gene itself. If you think our female pilots don't talk about us in the same vein you're maybe even a little deluded as well. ;)

Humour pills.

sorry, I mis-read the label...i thought it said 1 per day, meaning the whole bottle. :eek:

We are that sensitive, that a joke older than the Ark cannot be told in the humour intended, without the whole world thinking we are trying to offend someone?

Really? Seriously? Bugger, must be time to learn which direction Mecca is at.

Calling Kaz3g for support? you're more likely to get a joke aimed at men as a response. :ok:

And if she doesn't do that, and has genuinely taken offence, then I am damm sure she will call me direct...she has my number!

The whole world has gone nuts....you can't laugh at a joke as a joke.....very sad for you.

....end rant

back on topic, nothing to see here

good wives are out there! just have to keep looking..

the only argument i have with her is who is flying in command today..:ok:

The few time I took flying the Lady who eventually became the then Mrs Pinky, when enticed to take the controls she did so most reluctantly.:eek:

She really did not like it! And always appeared most relieved when I took control back again.:hmm:


Anyone wanna buy my boat?

No thanks jas24zzk; I think that once your current `squeeze` reads your above post, after she finishes with you:uhoh::ooh: I should be able to buy it a lot cheaper at the Estate sale!:D:E

jas24zzk
17th Jul 2015, 11:28
Well mate,
she's a lawyer, so there will be no estate sale. Lawyers have a different set of skills....hence the boat would be dearer with her in control hehe

Pinky the pilot

Just remember that she probably is well aware of that!:=:E

Maximise her profits an` all!:eek::ooh:

You can send someone into town to purchase those items from the stock and station agents while you refuel from the new bowser at Blackall

There you go, we're back on thread topic
