Cheers Paul digging that up , i wonder that they said about the nose wheel strut , faulty casting ( carbon fiber i guess) or was it a rabbit hole . Would have been a hell off a ride !

Really dose look like another planet , more like a si-fi movie , that is impressive

The flaps are in the up position. I would imagine it was taxiing back to the ramp after a flight..

QUOTE (ZKIWI @ Jun 29 2011,5:56 AM) I feel your pain too. I have been without Flight Sim for the last 6 months and have been looking forward to getting home and getting back to some Flight Sim with some NZ VLC goodness. I can't say it was cold turkey as a had a few hours in the NH90 sim but it is not quite the same. Best thing is i can use the jet lag excuse to stay up late and get up early to get on the sim. Are you on the NH-90 project team ZKIWI?

Very envious of you there Timmo.

Ian, thanks very much...I'll pass on those thoughts, but the old fella is almost blind as well....which really pees's him off....20,000 hour plus ex pilot....reduced to to having someone clean you up after you...whatever . Im not sure how he really feels, but i can guess....thanks again. Ignore the vid.....but the song pretty much sums it up. Edit: I seem to have credited him too many flying hours....try 15,000...still quite a time.

Man these earthquakes are funny things, I live just round the corner from the epicentre of this last rumble and we lost no power at all, lots a bright lights from the ground lightning tho that was impressive. Have not been out to the man cave yet to see if the PCs survived. Ian

Umm ... Paul some pommy brat stole the bloody spinner /laugh.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :lol: border= 0 alt= laugh.gif />

Charl , they call it the Garden City , maybe bulldozer that - the eastern area down , most icons gone or going much the city center , that,s what happens when you mess with destroying natural history such as 'Wigram' - being a manger part off CHCH , maybe our former Major woke up from the dead to give the idiots a shake up - Marty Christchurch MK2 had better reinstate that ole airfield , you could join my team of cavaliers to rebuild the city .

QUOTE (Chairman @ Jun 16 2011,1:14 PM) .... so the poor reporter now has meaningless numbers and aircraft cruise levels measured to 0.1 metre accuracy ... I hate it when you get ATC barking at you because your 20cm below your cruising altitude! /laugh.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :lol: border= 0 alt= laugh.gif />

@ Cowpatz , the aircraft in the , G-EAOU the registration was use by another intrepid pair from Australia , Ross and Keith Smith flying in stages from England to Australia @ Charl , pleased they did not brake it - now that is more the Alcock and Brown Vimy colour , i wonder if that is maybe a second replica .

I saw this last night. It was N817BR of the Liberty Foundation. It was the one that was used by Pratt & Whitney for their T34 and T64 turboprops. Very sad but at least everyone got out.
