Avgas Supplies

[Tailgunner]

What is the latest on Avgas supplies to PNG.
Anyone know the real story??

Got no idea Gunnie, but I got this pearler the other day which I thought you might enjoy.

A controller who was working a busy pattern told a 727 on downwind to make a 360 to allow for some spacing.

The pilot of the 727 complained, "Do you know it costs us two thousand dollars to make a 360 in this airplane?

Without missing a beat the controller replied, "Roger, give me four thousand dollars worth!"

Hairy you sound like you know abit about the aviation industry - any points for guessing your occupation ???

[hairylegs]

Got me there gunnie, I used to do a lot of mountain dodging in that part of the world a while back. I do that somewhere else now where the terrain and wx are a bit forgiving (getting old).
How is the Daero club doing these days anyway? I hear Ted's got it done up pretty well and the SP's are still cold.

[ghoulishlittlegoblin]

Actually Hairy, it's Ghoulish or GLG if you please.......I believe that Gunnie is neither here nor there these days and I'm sure we all miss him. In any case I haven't been to the Aero in quite a number of years and I can't say that I recall a "Ted"........nowadays it doubles as a watering hole for the Biking half of Hash - don't know anyone else who'd be caught drunk....or sober there.

[ghoulishlittlegoblin]

Just occurred to me.......Talair ??? Or MBA ??? Or were you flying the Big Birds ???

[Tailgunner]

You got that right 'Hairy", the SP is still cold and whats more it's cost hasn't reached it's true value as yet.

But don't tell 'Ted"!

Hey Ted,

The piss is too cheap down the Daero Club.

A joke for all you airbus drivers

There was a conference in Las Vegas recently on Programming Testing Standards.

The Lecturer asked the following question :-

How many of you would get in a plane that your development team wrote the software for.

out of the 2000 strong audience of software project managers only one put there hand up.

The lecturer asked the individual why he would be so confident getting on the balus.

the guy replied :-

If it was my development team, the plane would be lucky to taxi to the runway, never loan take off..

[ghoulishlittlegoblin]

Are you all fly-boys or what ?????

[Hellish]

Hmmm ..... maybe a friend of a friend of a friend type relationship, that sounds viable as well.
Abit of a numbers game really ... abit skintilating really ... lmao
