    RE: Bankstown Airport!

    Yeah they use small to medium sized a/c here, and alot of regional services are based here.
    Basicly everything comes here, and during the weekend of the airshow, QANTAS flies in a 747, the middle run way 28 (if memory serves) is the longest. It’s always amazing to see a 747 land here, you think it’s not going to make it but some how it does!

    There are 5 active runways, and in the top right hand corner you can see the Hawker de Haviland facility. This is where the army’s DHC-4 Carribou’s and the RAAF’s PC-9’s where built as well as the old Vampires. Haven’t seen much there in recent years but at Bankstown there’s always something to see, this is also where the warbirds most get redone and is where my cousins Mig-15 is (#####)!

    I can do it, but I need your support!

    RE: 1,000 post special-MUSIC(off topic)

    Another type of music I love listening to is African music, it’s so soul lifting. I have the sound track to “Power of One” and it is fantastic, but I also have a cd that I bought in Nigeria when I was there and it is so good that I fully belive what it says on the cover…
    “If this music doesn’t make you feel good, you’re probably dead”!

    The band is a ten piece band and it’s name is “Kotoja”, the cd is “The Super Sawale Collection”

    No, I didn’t think!

    I knew, it’s not far from where I live, about three hours drive! I’ve been over it so many times it’s not funny!
    It’s an old pic though, Virgin are in the old colours!
    Besides I’ve met the guy that owns that TS-11 Iskra, he lives in Keithley ACT!

    RE: Pic Of The Day-Specialy for Ja!

    Why do companies insist on destroying good looking planes like this?
    Blah, sorry, thanks for the thought Kab but I’d rather die than get on a bus looking like this!

    I thought only subs had periscopes? Oh well here’s a caption for you!

    “And never touch this red button, we’ve had to fit ejection seats to this plane due to the new saftey standards laws. Huh, where did you go”?

    RE: Why do I bother?

    T5, it’s a great idea. I was apprehensive at first, cause Kab seems to have the market in Pics of the day on all three forums, not that I begrudje him for it. I feel that the rest of the world is left out because all pics seem to be of European origin.

    Before I started “pic of Inspiration” on the AFM forum, I emailed Kab to see if it would interfere with his work! His responce was “Go ahead, it’s a free world”! He even went as far as to say that he’d like to see what I have!

    And then I posted that pic of Longreach, everyone liked it and asked for more, so I posted them! but everyone had settled back down really quickly to the mundane!

    I have spent no less than 100 hours on the internet to find what few pics I have of interesting stuff for this forum, and I’m proud to display what I have. By the sounds of it, everyone else is starting to want to see more of the unusual/exotic stuff, especially where europe is concerned!

    Kab has done a great job of keeping interest flowing (especially those Kai Tak pics), he has been my inspiration for my posting of the “Pics of Down Under” series, collaboration is the key to success! Now all we need is someone from the Americas side and we pretty much have the world covered!

    Sorry, I just got a bit down cause I posted some pics and was on the net for two days straight (working on my business), and saw that no-one had looked at the pics! Check out the Bankstown one, that airport is one busy place, my cousin and I used to ride there on our push bikes and sit right under the landing path, pure inspiration!

    Also this is where most of the warbirds in Australia first arrive to be rebuilt and serviced. My cousins Mig-15 is based here!

    Is it any wonder 747 pilots hated going to Hong Kong!
