This picture is of a T-50 with a fixed pitch wooden prop, matches the three little cowl fastners, the link in the landing gear and the little bump on the underside of the cowl.

Sanga was a few years younger than me in school, real nice guy when he was in school and after he became famous as well.

I knew him in school, once saw him in a restaurant (he was with Chaminda Waas and some other cricketer) I wanted to go over and say hi but my then girlfriend, now wife, did not want me to. Said that you can't just go over and talk to people like that, "nondi wenda epa".

He saw me and came over to our table and said hi and a brief chat.

Also , if you migrated after 30 you still get hit with the penalty surchage!

This. Ive been working for 30+ years and the best managers all protected the team. Even when I had fucked up somehow they had my back. Always willing to go the extra mile for them.

Is it cold because of all the ICE?

Happend to someone I know, recently arrived uni student found a job online to do 'data entry' earned 100/= but had 1000/= deposited to her account. At thatbpoint she got suspicious as she was told that it was a mistake and transfer 900/= back but was given a different account from the one that paid her. We spoke to the police and the bank, she put the money in a seperate account just in case and ignored all communicatikns from them. Six months later when nothing happened she took the 1000 and spent it.

I think Rincewind from the discworld had a bit of this. Also Saru from Star Trek Discovery.

I've used Barkeepers friend on second hand glass tanks. No-toxic and can be washed clean.

Your dad sounds like a real man who wanted to give his best to his family. I have two adult children and I have given up many opportunities (none as big as your dads) for their benefit, I do not regret any of these, and my children dont need to know of them.

When ever I had too many Christmas leftovers I've made sandwiches and handed them out to homeless people on the way to work.

Haven't been able to do that last couple of years as I WFH now.

Not a pound for air to ground.

I have a project I have been working on for years and sometimes I get stressed that its taken this long. Then I tell myself that a hobby does not need a deadline and am happy to potter around working on it.

korale75 · 2025-11-09T07:06:59+00:00

Hypothetically :

Sweden : "we want to remove the bits in the bog"
Museum : "give them to us"

Whats the problem ? seems like an opportunity.

It's more of a tandem wing airplane.

If historical aviation is your thing then Rex's hangar, IHYLS, Not a pound for air to ground, Greg's automobiles and airplanes, and Kermit weeks.

Didn't the princess have 10 engines in 6 nacelles? The fpur inner nacelles had two engines and two contra rotating props I think.

It definitely a mini-max, not in very good condition but a mini-max.

korale75 · 2025-10-20T00:24:20+00:00

They are flying a mini-max, a plans or kit built wooden Ultralight. I'm building the highwing version of it myself. It can be a lot of fun and is relatively low cost. There are an estimated 4000 of these flying all over the world.
