Yair, but the dog's friendlier.
TNK; best thing is the sheila in the house next to PLovatt's place; especially when wearing just the singlet.... but she's married .. owns a nice Bull Terrier, though.

Talking to some of the AF pilots out at easter AL bases, they've not heard anythig from the boss - maybe he's playing cards VERY close to his chest 
'cause they all reckon a Bandit and B200 would make a pretty good progression goal for all.
And, as far as I know, most of his planes are leased not owned - TFL, FTM, HIS, BJH - though I stand to be corrected.

Someone was asking about me? [I feel honoured!]
The C90 is leased from a company here in Perth I do believe and has offices over in South Africa. I do believe that they lease out the Beech product's the 1900D / B200 / C90's
I was astonished about the monthly rental for this type of aircraft he must have some good $$$$ turning in to get around $2k mark a day just to cover the aircraft leasing.........
I think he has already got a pilot for the Bandit and I think one is training down in Tasmania at the moment.
Who shall tell???? P.S There are a few more Dash 8 aircraft heading into Australia soon but these are not for Qantas so interesting times are ahead.

C90 going to do big things in the NT charter business! That get rid of those Conquests and B200!
Perhaps he could use it for scenics out at Kakadu?
What does the FO do on C90?

Well IIIIIIIII got to talk to her a fair bit at Food Barn
Any luck with the Fijian sheila next door on the other side - the one who told me she "only lives in Tennant because she got knocked up" ?
(This is TNK; now on its 20th day in a row of OAT > 40C).
"who is "pinky headset ?"
..... a little ray of sunshine ..
One Bandit. One C90. One TNK. We're lucky this thread is just the result of someones aerosexual fantasy and not actually part of the real world.
250 multi command is the new 500 multi command.
Darwin ? You're standing in it !

Air Fro$1@?, GH and Big $$$$$. That is the biggest contradiction in terms in the entire aviation industry! As is promotion in that company. I can hear last nights phone call to the pilot on Elcho Island.
Pilot "I have been out here for nearly a year now. No sink to was my dishes in, no hot water to wash myself in...."
GH, "When I was a kid, we didn`t live in conditions as good as you have it. You are in paradise. A tropical island, good view, close to nature"
Pilot, "You promised some twin time over six months ago, and ...."
GH, "I am getting someone to replace you, the training is just taking a bit longer than expected. If you can`t do it for me, then I am going to have to close the doors. I just can`t afford to keep operating if I don`t have the bases going. The rent is killing me."
Pilot, "But the council guy I spoke to the other day about the hot water said you haven`t paid the rent in 4 years."
GH, "They are just lies. Don`t listen to the rumours. WHat else have you heard?"
Pilot, " Training taking a bit longer than expected! How long then?"
GH, "Well just another week or two. Then I will bring you in and get you some twin time. I need you on the twin`s so you can get som experience so you can fly the turbine`s I have coming. I am bringing a guy in, but....
Why all the secrecy? That`s why.

Apologies
That statement was a bit redundant I guess.
I dont know the AF operation at all really. But over the last few days have heard nothing but bad news about it.
