I think if you took a panel off almost any GA aircraft in
Aus and showed it to one of the older LAMEs on the airport
he could probably give you a story for each of the ten different layers
of paint the AC has had in its long life.
Where as the seats and interior normaly speak for themselves.
I hate it when i give the saftey brief to the passangers and show
them the opperation of the doors but they inevetabley focus on the door trims that are falling off and the bits of uppolstery that are missing.
Its always good to inspire confidence in people not normaly associated with
GA. and they dont even know what that green stain on the wing is.

And what, may I ask, is wrong with hundred mile an hour tape TQ?, sheesh I've seen worse. If ya really wanna raise some eyebrows try fifty mile an hour tape..............it comes off as you rotate and really gets em going.

Gaunty. What do you mean when you say you "just put the mockers on" the C421 as a charter vehicle? Surely the C421 meets charter standards, and has been used for charter for decades. Please explain.

Hey wiz, does that mean that when I was hanging ***** on you about your 310 and hundred mile an hour tape I was a lot closer to the truth that even I suspected???????? Come to think of it, you did seem to protest just a little too much!!!!!!! Hahahahahahah P.s. Hope she's going alright........
BUSHY, You'll be sorry you asked, trust me.........!!!

Looks vs Performance.
Has anyone noticed or mentioned here (I haven't read the whole lot.......too busy......(GA???)) that charter aircraft are either pretty but run like a bucket, or ugly and go very well with all the good gear? I know the Aztec that Centaurus is talking about. It's in the ugly and uncomfortable catagory but goes like the clappers........
