Thumbs up Truth

Wiley,

Back in the days when we were allowed to hand fly, I very quickly discovered an almost foolproof truth - that those who practised hand flying rarely needed to, while those who didn't really should have.
Any chance you could make a placard to go on every CP's wall?

G'day

Ruprecht, thanks for the thoughts.

Derek, some times you just have a good day at work and want to publicly thank those who contributed to it being a nice day.

Ascend Charlie, big difference between enjoying yourself on a nice day out and thinking it's the best thing since sliced bread.

jj232, you're welcome.

I guess after nearly a decade on PPRUNE I shouldn't be surprised at some of the narrow minded posts that are prevalent from time to time. Ah well, at least I know that I can see the positive side of life and am not so self absorbed or consumed by my own little world that it's possible to actually acknowledge other people's contributions.

'rcoight' you are one very brave man, direct to syd, that's a looooooooooooooong way on one engine !
I'm a little surprised that an organ was sent that long distance via a prop plane, maybe the jet was busy?

Ref your prev post, the 'loss' of the old 3 Tanks route was due to a safety case. I won't say that case was well handled though - not enuf consultation.

The route will not be back for fixed wing but a modified version WILL be back for POLAIR, M3 et al (because helos can hold on the spot). Needs ML twr staff to be checked out in the tower sim and there is a delay till possibly early next year. The media choppers are NOT pleased at the delay.
