  1. Getting a couple of wheels shouldn't be that Hard. If you want to restore a vehicle and get the Best outcome, Get the BEST one you can find and do the Least to it that destroys it's originality. A lot of these old vehicles have Fatigued Axles cracked cranks, heads and Blocks and Chassis Parts and RUST,etc.
  2. An Airline Pilot I once knew went into a Hardware store dressed like that and Ordered a Bottle of Methylated spirits. He rubbed it fondly and asked "I don't suppose you Have a COLD one , do you?" Nev
  3. I suppose you wear an old army Greatcoat with nothing on underneath and have Lollies in the Pockets too. Nev
  4. IF any Place is close to sea level, A baro above 1013.2 by much will push it to below AMSL pressure height. Nev
  5. It applies to any Pressure altitude, below sea level included It's adiabatic. P1 V1/ T1 = P2 V2/ T2 =s K Universal Gas equation. Nev
  6. Maybe they are all watching Bathurst? Actually the forum is pretty quiet most of the time . Nev
  7. People at the Counter must look at you funny, when you buy that. Nev
  8. There's heaps of work in these projects. Do you really have the time to Spare? Nev
  9. I MUST be posting in Invisible ink? Nev
  10. People LOVE (and continue to expect), something for Nothing. Nev
  11. Don't confuse the argument with FACTS, OME. You might set a Precedent.. Nev
  12. It's called the Kollsmann Scale and it has a wide range. You MUST include temperature in your DENSITY Altitude considerations. You work on the difference between actual and the standard ICAO figure at the Level you are at. A BARO Altimeter is only a Barometer with a different Face. Various forms of those would be on ships to help with weather predictions and tidal HEIGHTS. long before Planes flew. Nev
  13. The BRADSHAW Oil Boiler was a sleeve Valve Motorcycle.
  14. That Bristol sleeve valve thing will never work The Plug head needs a big blast of air to Keep it cool. Fine finning is not appropriate for Low speed cooling air and the heat has to travel through 2 sleeves to get to the Finned part It will also need a much bigger flywheel than could fit in that crankcase. It will only be a static exhibit.. Nev
  15. There's a Formula for density Altitude that all aviators should Know. It compares what the conditions are Compared to the Standard ICAO Definition. (It Used to be ICAN), It's 15 C and 1013.2 at sea Level, I think each degree is +/minus 120ft and each Millibar something like 30 ft, If I look it up Now I might Lose this Post. Nev
  16. You expect him to Mind -read do you?. I don't think the ATO have a big regular to and fro. with gov't. They are generally Independent in how they run their show. They assess and collect what is Legislated by Gov't The way "SOME" Business's want to do it Passes the cost onto Other taxpayers. Credit Cards are Contentious items The TAX office doesn't need the surety of Payment that Helps business feel good. But Be assured, The TAX office will GET their Money. Jim Chalmers is a "Doctor"of something so He's not your ordinary Dill as you Might Infer . We are STILL AAA rated and doing a lot better than most similar Countries. Check it up IF you don't believe me. A business not being able to Pass on a gov't cost is BS. We pass on GST in full. . If you don't use a card you should get a price above those who do. You should not have to pay for something you didn't use. That should be a basic principle. Nev
  17. I think it's easier on your scalp than strong detergent. Unless you work Under trucks dripping black oil you should just use water. Most people's skin gets dry and thinner. I got Brandy soda and detergent once in a Restaurant near Kew Junction. They'd put it in a Lime Bottle . Nev
  18. GON will not be Happy, IF everything is going OK. He would have to change his forum name as well.. Nev
  19. Can you trust that or does it just make you feel comfortable?. Nev
  20. Good advice. You are a very Lucky Man to Be able to get this Aid to Hearing.
  21. Have a system. Put them each in a different Place. Nev
  22. Yes, They need security. above all things. It's genetic. Nev
  23. Attitude is everything.. Where did you find out that AI would turn evil? Nev
  24. None of Us are getting out of this Alive. Most of US senior citizens have friends and associates departing regularly. One of my phone books is about 90% deceased. To me this "well known Personalities" is by comparison, of Minor significance. Keep in touch with those you Love. They won't be around forever, and won't notice you at the Funeral. Nev
  25. Like a Nissan S cargo? Nev
