Hmmm... that was interesting. Heart in your mouth stuff having to do it for the very first time.

Recently I went to an aeronautical museum down near narita and for a bit of extra cash got to have a 30 min training sesh and got to land a Boeing 737 Max in a real simulator. It's amazing how real it is. What's even more amazing is how much stuff you have to remember to get the plane down, even with all the additional computer aids.

I managed somehow to land safely- bit rough but I got her down.

It was an interesting and insightful experience.

Zen I did a father/son thing in Newcastle once for kids going that had gone off the rails (long story). Anyway it was run by a local fighter pilot from Williamtown RAF Base and involved a sit down and chat about life with the group, then we all had a crack at flying this single prop plane over the Hunter Valley.

You literally took over once you were up and handed control back at about 100 feet from the runway and once landed had to steer it back to the hanger. Most insane thing I've ever done in my life. Ended up in the grass though - steering a moving object with a tail rudder is no easy feat.

Pilots are certainly a different breed I reckon.

I got to pilot/steer a seaplane once and I was drunk at the time.

M&D bought us light aircraft flight, I get up there and in control, shown how to avoid a spiral downward etc and the pilot says "OK, I'm going to shut off the engine now," and I was like "No, no, don't do that, plane need motor." Anyway, I learned I could glide it. Bro, much like Zen, had been on the turps before his go and the pilots were seen swapping money on whether he would hurl. He looked destroyed afterward. First stop sign in car, driving home afterward, checked 6 directions including up/down.
Uncles flew everything from DC3 to 747-400s, one still flying into his 80s.

Tell us your inebriated seaplane story Zen!

I use to travel between Phillip Island and Tassie for holidays in a little cessna and once the pilot let this kid about ten years old steer...i guess the pilot really has control all the time with his steering wheel though...but at first i was like WTF?...(i was sitting in next seat behind them)

Also went for a job interview at Fraser island with the missus about 15 years ago where they flew us up from the Sunny Coast (landed on the beach on Fraser) anyway the pilot couldn't get the plane started (it was just us) and he kept trying, going fuck fuck, rang his boss asking how to start it etc, had to wait 10 minutes before trying again, he finally got it started, but it was a bit dodgy.

Nuclear Subs is a very smart move by the government !

It replaces a shit previous decision to buy/build substandard subs .

It places nuclear power on the next election agenda . Both Labor and Greens will be thinking it is a gift from heaven . They will be proved wrong again imo .

It introduces nuclear energy as a possible way to reduce CO2 emissions . The only way I can see Australia getting to Net Zero CO2 by 2050 .

I hope carbon credit trading is not part of this plan !!! I can guarantee that Wall Street has a plan to dominate this system and do what they always do - rape and pillage .

They will make trillions from it . I also know that if Wall Street make trillions EVERYBODY else will lose out . It is just how it works .

The mood in the US has changed dramatically . Have you seen the football games where the crowd is chanting F..k Joe Biden ? These polls prove it .

"But here in September 2021, both sides of the political spectrum are very angry. Just check out these stunning numbers from a brand new CNN poll…

A new CNN poll finds that 74% of U.S. adults now say they are “very or somewhat angry” about the way things are going in the U.S. today — that includes 88% of Republicans, 70% of independents and even 67% of Democrats. But wait, there’s more.

Another 69% of U.S. adults now say that things are going “pretty or very badly” in the country these days — that includes 91% of Republicans, 72% of independents and 49% of Democrats.

Those numbers are crazy. Just a few months ago, there was so much optimism, but now the mood of the nation has completely shifted.

Surprisingly, that same CNN poll asked a question about illegal immigration, and it found that even most Democrats are concerned about “the movement of undocumented immigrants”…

Seems like they regret their voting at the last election . Missing Trump !

Nuclear subs, i heard the Greens are against the idea even though carbon free, apparently they believe solar powered subs are better despite the need to come up to recharge batteries on the surface every few hours.

whilst I agree the mood has changed significantly... those vids were quite a let down, being hyped big time by all the usual suspects... when you click on them, there was about 100 private school tools in blazers, trying to get a chant going, amidst granstands of thousands, didn't even make it to booze hill bogan 'davos a wanker' status...

""But here in September 2021, both sides of the political spectrum are very angry. Just check out these stunning numbers from a brand new CNN poll…

how could you not be angry? ...the country is in the midst of a bloody shambles, with a president that needs constantly surrounding by carers and damage controllers rather than much needed advisors, and an agenda that is totally off the rails

the only people denying its a bloody shambles are the die hardest of die hard supporters, the still deranged ...still!!?... and his PR team, ...and even these 3 groups are appearing more and more demoralised by the day....

"Those numbers are crazy. Just a few months ago, there was so much optimism, but now the mood of the nation has completely shifted."

wait til winter hits... and another wave of the rona blues...

"Surprisingly, that same CNN poll asked a question about illegal immigration, and it found that even most Democrats are concerned about “the movement of undocumented immigrants”…"

again... how could you not be angry? ...over a million people have crossed the border under big joe's big invite... they're basically riddled with corona, which isn't a judgement, its just a reality... and they are caught and released into the wider community, with no vaccinations... ...what could possibly go wrong?

aside from the hypocrisy, recklessness, and ridiculousness being ever exposed by big joe's ever evolving authoritarianism on the matter, it's a disaster...

"Seems like they regret their voting at the last election . Missing Trump !"

I don't think there's that many that are actually missing trump...

but it does seem there's a hell of a lot that had no idea a biden / harris administration could be so bad...

Re: the sub decision, that's a big call. Aus - UK - US trilateral security partnership is huge: imagine the big new Brit carriers operating with Australian AWD in the Pacific (been done before). The subs are going to go from respectable (Collins class after problems ironed out were very stealthy, new French ones would be one of most capable diesel-electrics) to absolutely fearsome. They take time to build tho. Wonder what happens to ASC?

Article points out reasoning: "replace its existing Collins class subs with a boat more suitable to the deteriorating strategic environment." Last few paras point out the naval build up in the north which is something we have discussed before on these forums, at time of US election and policy not appearing to change drastically from the Trump admin. With US out of Afghanistan, the periphery of the global continent is more defined, and the oceanic powers are concentrating their naval depth.

I used to fly regularly from Bridport to Flinders Island with this old bloke. I remember the first time I went we had to put our lifejackets on before boarding. Then he pulls out his calculator and asks each one of us what we weighed. I think I had white knuckles before boarding. Used to do the Wynyard - King Island trip as well and taking off from Wynyard one day you couldn't see out the front windscreen because of the hail. I thought we were going to die landing at King Island. Worst experience ever.

What’s that? You think the vaccine passports will simply disappear one day and Certainly won’t be used as a Trojan horse for the development of a universal digital ID used to track and control every single aspect of your life?

Classic.

“In particular, during the COVID-19 pandemic, restrictions on individuals for the sake of public health, and forms of individual accountability and responsibility that were unthinkable only one year before, have been adopted by millions of people. People may be more prepared to accept the tracking and limitations related to PCAs to achieve a safer climate and the many other benefits (for example, reduced air pollution and improved public health) associated with addressing the climate crisis. Other lessons that could be drawn relate to the public acceptance in some countries of additional surveillance and control in exchange for greater safety. For instance, in many countries, mobile apps designed for COVID-19 infection tracking and tracing played an important part in limiting the spread of the pandemic. The deployment and testing of such apps provide technology advances and insights for the design of future apps for tracking personal emissions. Recent studies show how COVID-19 contact-tracing apps were successfully implemented with mandatory schemes in several East Asian countries, such as China, Taiwan and South Korea43. In these countries, the apps assessed each user’s travel history and health status, playing a key role in tracking infections43. These unique natural experiments give insights into possible strategies to use apps to track PCAs. For instance, the many digital contact-tracing algorithms that were developed and tested43,44 provide initial valuable information for the design of future apps that—for example—estimate emissions on the basis of tracking the user’s movement history. However, the adoption of such apps also raised issues regarding the balance between data privacy concerns and public health45. A recent review showed that only 16 of 50 reviewed contact-tracing apps explicitly state that the user’s data will be made anonymous, encrypted and secured and reported only in an aggregated format46. Such a balance is also perceived differently in diverse countries. Initial evidence points to various issues related to adopting such schemes in liberal democracies such as in Europe and the United States—where data privacy, trust and ethical issues strongly limited participation in contact-tracing efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic46. Such resistance itself also provides important lessons for future PCA-tracking apps. For instance, new regulations have been suggested to address data privacy concerns and security vulnerabilities when using these apps43 and significant technological advances were made for privacy-preserving contact-tracing apps44. These advances could help pave the way for the adoption of PCA schemes. However, citizen engagement and participatory approaches would be needed to design and implement PCA schemes that balance personal liberties with delivering climate aims in a socially acceptable manner.“

Freeride- yeah, nah. The ol’ “We Already Have Smartphones So We’re Already Cooked” argument is a shallow waste of your time. No one has to leave the house with their smart phones. No one has to sign up to Facey or Twitter. No one has to use health apps.

If you’d read the link that I provided, you realise that the Digital ID will be used to not just track but also control everything we do. The climate change imperative is the next cab off the “Energency Authorisation “ rank. It’ll be power usage, kilometres travelled in your car. Food consumption. Alcohol consumption. The Chinese social credit system with Australian characteristics.

And the usual useful idiots will bolster its implementation with their vociferous shouts of “If you’re not doing anything wrong you’ve got nothing to fear”. Unfortunately it’s the subjectivity and arbitrary nature of wrong and right which spoils that little opinion.

It’s neofeudalism. The average punter in the street will be controlled to within an inch of existence whilst the powerful and the rich live as they please. We are already seeing the tip of that iceberg with things such as international travel restrictions. Soon it’ll permeate every aspect of life and be overseen and policed with the digital ID which knows your every move. Compound this with a central bank issued digital currency and your entire life will be surveilled and subject to remote control by authority.

Three people died in NSW today whilst fully vaccinated. The vaccine passport is not about preventing transmission, infections or deaths. It’s a ruse to get everyone on the digital ID.

If the Digital ID doesn’t get up under the auspice of Covid it’ll simply reappear under another justification. Likely that of climate change. In the meantime the population of Earth will be encouraged to voluntarily surrender their freedoms through the take up of internet technology as you mentioned. New generations will be encouraged to believe that human existence is not possible or worthwhile without the intrusion of technology into every single aspect of our lives.

I read the article.

It's speculation about what might happen but as in the excerpt I highlighted above they make clear that as in Covid tracking apps there may be " where data privacy, trust and ethical issues strongly limited participation in contact-tracing efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic46."

But, you may be right.

The powers to be want to eliminate cash . Everything needs to be digital . That way they can monitor everything that happens .

They want to limit surfers from travelling to international waves as well .

"This has all been enabled to further the elimination of paper money and thereby the failing governments believe they will be able to grab whatever taxes they demand and nobody will be able to avoid taxes ever again. On top of that, they also want to eliminate international travel as much as possible to “save the planet” but also to prevent people from fleeing their jurisdiction for taxation. The end goal is a hybrid of the old Soviet Union whereby we will not be able to freely travel and ensure we will be the future economic slaves.

This is why Twitter banned Trump. Whatever excuse BigTech can use to shut down Trump and ensure Biden would win the election was all done to further this agenda where they were promised that traditional banks will become obsolete. Branches will no longer be needed. You can already deposit a check by scanning it into your phone so you need not visit a bank office. Once cash is eliminated, then all that would be left is a safe deposit box which they envision is loaded with valuables you need to pay taxes on."

These are someone else's views that I agree with . Deliberately not named .
