Re: Rare and interesting car sightings

Love to turn that Holden into a mock taxi. Took a picciewiccie tonight of this extraordinarily straight XH panel van. It looked to be in faultless shape. Would make a great stealth camper this one. Check out the rims. IMG_20210713_180346_copy_1000x564.jpg Swift, those rims were fitted to all XH Lon...

Re: What gives you the S&#T's!?

Car dealers who don't take the time to talk their customers through some of the features on their new cars - I have a friend who has a Jeep Grand Cherokee S-Overland and he barely knows how to use most of the features on the car..... one of these features is the remote start system!

I like the name.
Found four places near you: Fresko Fruit Kincumber, Harris Farm Markets and Woolworths Erina and Bamvino Erina Heights. I would suggest using Harris Farm Markets as the other places may not stock all of their products

I have to consciously tell myself ok that's enough and make myself put them away.
For a good tzatziki, go out and look for the Fresh Fodder brand! Made in Orange and absolutely bloody delicious!

Re: Australian Aviation Thread 2021

The ATSB should know something about it. Perhaps they don't get involved with "light aviation"? Also, there should have been a coronial enquiry; try those records. Or at least the local Kyneton or Bendigo police as they were an investigating agency. There's your answer on the back of the ...

Body is a QCC Orbit, not a Majestic (or I may be wrong)..... pretty sure the school bus body was known as the Orbit!

Finally found the last six at Bretts.
Amazing how one has to find the right person. It was listed under another model bus.
Got their last six, or so they tell me.

Thanks

Re: Anyone been in a helicopter?

Lately I have been viewing Bell 206 'Jetranger' videos and realise that while they are a fairly common sight in the sky, very few in the population have or will ever experience flying in such an aircraft. I have always admired the shape of the 206 and have learnt quite a lot about them through watc...

Re: Supersized "When lights flash" signs on NSW buses and black surroundibg on school lights

This is due to a new TfNSW technical specification that has come into effect, TS150 - all buses must meet tech spec 150, even older buses! These older vehicles must be retrofitted with the new surrounds and larger signage
