Dont Fly In This Rented Death Trap
Chill, it’s meant to be humorous. It’s just another rabid Lefty blog. It’s not really a proper news outlet. So no real damage done.
It's pretty funny.

Good grief! Relax, it's a joke, the Betoota Advocate does a pretty good job of skewering the left and right fairly evenly, and having a decent crack at millenials, angry boomers, businessmen, parents, lawyers and hippies along the way, with probably better standards of accuracy than News Ltd, Fairfax or the rest of their competition. Good job Otto!! (I'm still not going for a flight though mate!)
Even this 'joke' causes damage to light aircraft

I know it is a joke, and I can appreciate it as a joke, it gave me a good giggle.
My concern was the general public coming across this and not understanding the message or website it was published on.
Also, when it gets plagiarised on other websites it ends up becoming a "real media story" and then before you know it when there is the next accident they will be grabbing text and images from this story and using it against "us"
Yes it is funny, would be used against the industry in the future, probably...

The Betoota Advocate is legendary, I wouldn't worry about anyone mistaking it for anything other than a finely polished mirror turned towards the Australian zeitgeist.

The Betoota Advocate has essentially one joke: inner city lefties sneering at suburbia.
There is not one clever or witty line in the article, but the tone of their news ‘articles’ feeds the smug but insecure denizens of the green left bubble.

As I recall, the Editor In Chief of The Truth was a Labrador!
You simply haven't read enough Betoota if you you think "inner city lefties" have never copped a funny headline.

Just a slight thread drift but..
One wonders just why the name Betoota Advocate was decided upon for the site!
Way back in the early/mid 80's the Betoota Pub was an interesting place to visit!
Closed for quite a few years now I believe.
