Cheyenne 400 VH-PTG

Used to belong to Paul Terry (Group). A West Australian entrepaneur, eventuelly traded it on a Cessna Citation V. Poor fellow killed himself in Hawaii whilst going solo in a Robinson R22 helicopter many years ago.

Would appear fom the Photobucket statistics that the Bandwidth allocated has been exceeded. Presume that is viewing demand, as am nowhere near the storage limit allowed. If it doesn't reset in a week or fortnights time, will have to take the old posts off or upgrade to Pro. My interpretation of bandwith is like the difference in speed and capacity between the old dial-up internet access, and the higher volume/speed broadband access. When it reached a certain bandwidth access trigger with Photobucket it shut down for the old posts. Wasn't o.k. yet for these trial new posts either.

You seem to be confusing what enthusiasts did 40 years ago re the painting, and present day regulatory requirements..

What did you have stashed in the aircon intake of the PC12 Towering Q?? (or is just an access hatch on that model?)
Access hatch, or Hell Hole, as some refer to it.

Access to Batteries, oxygen bottles and air con.

The customs guy stuck his head up there, waved a torch around and reappeared relatively happy.

The Best Thread on PPRuNE Ever

I have just spent the last few days reading all three hundred and thirty odd pages of this thread and have to say that it has been extremely entertaining visually, as well as mentally.

Chuckles - Your stories on PNG have me inspired - I have the utmost respect for all you ex PNG drivers. You certainly paint an envious picture into a rookies mind.

Id love to catch up one day for a yarn

Contrails over Wycheproof, VIC

A friend has allowed me to post his image of some contrails to the S/SW of Wycheproof, VIC a couple of weeks ago.

Going by that image I would be almost certain to say that I can see a standard holding pattern with 3 orbits? - Well photographed I say
