So they should , they have only recently gone through re-winging and avionics/glass cockpit , be no reason why they cannot last into 2030.

:P Guess that is good enough :D

I should get my rifle back from my uncle. The range on it would more than keep them out of your way. It's actually probably more illegal to have that rifle in NZ than it would be to take pot shots at prats in props... :thumbup:

I'll stick with drawing your 500 , got some great ideas and very much got your old fishing boat FK-188 , Ill tinker away and get the details corrected , don't think a Cabri would suit the , guessing what I have in mind. Have you returned to the , your original boat ?

Thanks guys appreciate the comments :) I hope to post a wee bit in screenshots especially now that I've bought Carenados C152 and C172 to help me train! :)

That's no joke.... I got the blue screen of death in the Cabri the other day haha. OK, it wasn't blue but you get the idea
