Elevator,
What, now all threads have to have a point...........
Well it is a slow news day aviation wise, so I was messing around and started searching for things that happened today ( November 3) in aviation. Kind of like in the newspaper when they have "it happened on this day". So these are all the airliner accidents that happened on this date over the last 30 years.
Also I guess you could say I was bored....
Best regards,
"lame"

Oh heck, just because I want to do it one more (and last) time, here are the ones for today, November 4th, including one from your neck of the woods OzExpat........

Lame
The Caravelle drug runner which crashed in Mexico in 1995 was better known to us down here as Air Caledonie International's F-GEPC "Marina". Sad end to a lovely looking aeroplane.

That one was a little before my time here lame, but I've heard the story. The point it brought home to me was that I HAD forgotten all about it. Maybe we all forget the lessons of history too easily, huh?
Perhaps there should be a dedicated "On this day" thread for each day of the year. Methinks it'd be a valuable refresher for all of us, because the same sort of things seem to keep happening despite all our professionalism and precautions.

"1982. Talair Embraer110 P2-RDL, damaged beyond repair at Port Moresby, PNG......"
Beyond repair??? Only the bloody cockpit and tail feathers were left. The rest of Bandit Ser No 300 was molten aluminium.......
Well I remember the 6.00 am telephone from GHOC!
The last of the new Bandits bought by Talair.

Lame tomorrow, November 5 is my dad's birthday. 78 going on 16. On his 3rd WRX and loving it!
He is a veteran of the Middle East, New Guinea and Borneo in the 'Big One', and Hiroshima with the BCOF after the 'Big Bang'. He lied about his age to join up at age 16. A truer Aussie you'd be hard pressed to find....
I know this is PRE-1971, but Slasher will back me up on this one!
From "Aircraft" November 1967, an advertisement:
"How Can Both Airlines Be The Same? We've got Susan Jones.
Twenty-two-years old Susan is an Ansett-ANA air hostess, 1967 model. She's the result of everything we've learned in over 30 years about the gentle art of caring for people who fly.
It's her charm and know-how that win people. She knows how to serve a gin and tonic, stop a nose-bleed, massage a bruised ego, distract children, quietly put a pillow under your head, light your cigarette, hand you your paper - and how to say the word that cheers after you've had one hell of a day.
Susan knows how to make flying time fly. Will she be on your flight? We have lots of Susan Joneses. No matter which one is watching over you, you'll get the message: Ansett-ANA CARES FOR YOU ALL THE WAY
If you want a scanned copy, send me an email. It's a classic!
I've got more

Hugh Jarse,
Your post came in as I was typing the other response.
I sincerely hope he has a great Birthday, he deserves it
The scary thing about those advertisements, is that I remember them.... , I was with Ansett at the time, but I was VERY young though...
Best regards,
