    What is up with Asian Airlines?

    There are some great clips on youtube where airliners do Cat 111 (fully automated) landings. The only input the pilot gives, is shortly after landing where he disconnects the autopilot and applies the reverse thrusters and manual braking to taxi the aircraft on the ground. Here is an example...

    What is up with Asian Airlines?

    The technology for a pilotless airliner has been around for many years. The hard part is to convince people to actually fly in one. Passengers feel safer to have human pilots up the pointy end of the aircraft to get them from point A to point B.

    What is up with Asian Airlines?

    Australian pilots are required to have a minimum of 1500 hours in command before being excepted by the major airlines here. Australian pilots build up most of these hours by bush flying in the outback and working as flight instructors. Many of the asian airlines except pilots with only a minimum...

    Maybe your battery is on it's way out. A load tester will quickly tell the condition of your battery. Recharge with a battery charger and see how you go.

    Block Their Shot

    I partly agree with you there, but when cars are traveling 20 to 5o k's over the speed limit I wouldn't call it a few k's over. There are elderly people and kids around which adds to the risk of somebody seriously been injured or killed run down by these maniacs. I have read some stats...

    Block Their Shot

    The Police set up the cameras on roads where the traffic volume is high.(more revenue) My local streets where the traffic volume is low but every second car is doing at least 60-70 and some idiots even doing 100 in a 50 zone they won't set up cameras here. (less revenue)

    Vz front brake caliper

    Sorry to hear mate. Whoever did that should never be allowed to work on a car again. Helicoil is the only way to properly repair the stripped threads.

    VZ V6 Alloytec Radiator Removal

    Spot on mate! I sprayed some WD40 on the rubber donuts and I was about to give up and pack up for the day when I gave it another go and the radiator came straight out. Thanks again for your help. Saved me heaps.

    VZ V6 Alloytec Radiator Removal

    I have removed everything off the radiator but when I try to lift the radiator up to remove it from the car it keeps getting stuck on the top rubber insulators (black round and donut shaped) which are on either side of the radiator. Do you have to leaver them out with a flat bladed screwdriver...

    Holden closing down Factory 2016 - 2018

    The problems Holden and Ford are going through started many years ago when the government of the day lowered tariffs on imported cars. This opened the flood gates for new imported cars to hit our shores which were often tens of thousands dollars cheaper to buy than our own locally produced cars...

    Union Picket in Melb

    Good on you mate. You sound like you are a manager and must be one of the lucky ones because most workplaces try to screw their workers with lower pay and conditions and employing foreign workers who will work for a bowl of rice a day. It is a fact of life. Open your eyes and take a look around.

    Union Picket in Melb

    Why don't you go down to the picket site and say what you said here and see how far you get. If you don't want to be in a union and just want to get butt raped and screwed by your boss go ahead.It is your choice after all. Don't also except any pay rises that the union negotiated. You can't have...

    Another One Bites The Dust - BTJunkie Volutarily Shuts Down.

    I think most of the internet providers will be worried about sites like btJunkie closing down as many of their customers will downgrade their plans because they won't longer be needing the big download limits they currently have.

    Sick of people complaining about speed Cameras?

    The doubt that exists is are they 100% accurate which I doubt they are. This has been proven many times and the appeal process is so complex and designed so you can't win.The average Joe Public just gives up and pays the fine. Another thing is why put cameras on roads where their is a high...

    Well Done Alan Joyce - BALLSY!

    I know fellow workers who were in a bit of strife for whatever reason join the union at the last resort when they knew their backsides were in a sling. They knew if they represented themselves they would have slim to zero chance in retaining their job. I have been personally helped by the...

    Well Done Alan Joyce - BALLSY!

    I am not sure where you got those salary figures 'Minux' from but even with their shift allowance they would struggle to make that kind of money you are talking about. I would rather fly on an aircraft that has being maintained by Australian trained engineers than some overseas outfit where...

    Well Done Alan Joyce - BALLSY!

    The unions are trying to protect their jobs and keep the company in Australia. This Joyce want's to base the majority of the company in Asia employing foreign labour and any existing jobs remaining in Australia would be on a contract or casual basis. The old saying that we will all be working...

    I had the misfortune of the mrs smashing the glass of the passenger side door rear view mirror. I have googled the net and searched this forum about how to replace the mirror glass but the only references that came up were for the VT and VE but not for the VZ. Is it possible to change the...

    NASA's Final Space Shuttle Mission: STS-135

    I watched the launch early this morning and I couldn't believe the extensive pre flight preparations that were going on to get this thing off the ground. This was a great experience to watch which I won't forget in a hurry.

    Jacking Points VZ

    I always jack up my VZ from the cross member and all my other commodores that I have owned previously from the same spot also. I never had any problems doing it this way. Remember if you are going to work under the car to ALWAYS use chassis stands for support and safety. NEVER rely on the jack...

    Bomb Threat in Geelong. CBD in Lockdown

    On a more serious note the bank probably foreclosed on his mortgage and will sell his house. I'd be pissed too but not to the extent that he went to.

    Petrol expected to hit $2 a Litre

    The aussie dollar is consistently trading above $1.00 US dollars now. Remember when they said if our dollar value goes up the petrol price would come down. What a load of crap that was. They way we are heading with all our taxes now we will become the most ripped off nation.
