Your daughter
@claudiamconwayy
is selling sexual content online for $5 a month. You FAILED as a father. Meanwhile, all of the Trump kids are millionaires and wildly successful.
@EricTrump
@DonaldJTrumpJr
@IvankaTrump
@TiffanyATrump
You also worked for
@ProjectLincoln
even after they were exposed for being tied to pedophiles.
You are in no place to be judging President Trump or calling people guilty when you won’t even condemn a bunch of pedophiles. Imagine having little kids and continuing to work for a pedophile tied org that obsesses about “getting Trump”.
You FAILED as a father. Did any of your friends at the Lincoln Project molest your daughter? How did your daughter, who had so much privilege and two rich parents end up selling sexual images for $5 and spreading her pussy on the internet?
That is what people in the mental health world call DADDY ISSUES.
While your daughter is probably getting fucked in the ass by Tyrone right now, Donald Trump continues to get even more popular.
You should be trying to convince your daughter to stop being a slut online, but instead, you’re jerking off to Donald Trump “conviction porn”.
@KellyannePolls

Lunch was a tomato and a chunk of cucumber accompanied by a can of sardines.
Sardines are a great food to eat when on any kind of diet as a can is only 150 calories. And they are filing, you can’t really eat much more than a can.
Anyway total calories in this 24hr period ( midnight to 3:30pm ) so far is 185.
As to the salad dressing dilemma, the one where if you don’t watch carefully how much regular dressing you use, has been solved.
This shit is very low calorie and tastes awesome! And a black man makes it.

BREAKING: The federal government is allegedly in the process of attempting to seize Alex Jones’ studios, put locks on the doors, and then forcefully liquidate all broadcast assets.
Jones allegedly slept in his studio last night and has publicly said he would call local police to stop the federal raid on his studios.
Details are still coming in, but Jones has been warning on his show recently that he and his crew are “trying to be shut down.”

Just wondering what to have for supper tonight. I am feeling fishy today. Anyway looked in the freezer and found something that I put on one side because I regarded it as a forbidden food at the moment.
Van de Kamp’s Beer Battered Fish Fillets, 19.1 oz, 10 Count (Frozen)
Serving size 2 of them, 230 calories but on the junk food naughty list because of the high fat content. That greasy breading coating!
However two juicy fillets, about 4oz total and 3oz of brussels sprouts and 3oz of cauliflower and I should be able to make a really filling supper under 300 calories.
Using fried junk food….
I did not know this
Bill Cooper was actually raided by the government and was killed.
He became convinced that he was being personally targeted by President Bill Clinton and the Internal Revenue Service.
In 2000, he was named a “major fugitive” by the United States Marshals Service.
On November 5, 2001, the government raided his home under the guise of
charges of aggravated assault and killed him in a “shootout”
Alex Jones would eventually replace Bill Cooper as the new alternative media kingpin.

Israel begrudgingly accepts Biden’s Gaza deal: ‘Not a good plan’

@ eaglesoars:
I really don’t think that Israel will give up its goal of eliminating Hamas as a force in Gaza before actually implementing any sort of cease fire. It would be insane for them to walk away now.
Anyone listen to ‘Coffee With Scott Adams’ this morning ? And NO, hes not a racist.
Why isn’t anyone talking about a generation-long military occupation of Gaza when this is over? Just like we did in Japan and Germany after WWII. Not by Israel or the US, and certainly not by one of the Islamic countries, and not the usual suspects from Africa. Maybe the EU could do it.

Frankly, that’s the only circumstances under which a former president should be put on trial, anyway.

@ lobo91:
IF he’s sentenced to prison time, there’s no precedent that requires Secret Service protection, and without it I suspect he’ll be wearing Epstein shoes.
@ Bunk Five Hawks X:
Actually, it’s the other way around. There’s nothing about it in the law authorizing lifetime protection for former presidents. The Dems tried to pass a bill recently revoking protection for former presidents who have been convicted of felonies, but it failed.
@ lobo91:
There’s no precedent that requires Secret Service protection in prison because no US President has ever been sentenced to prison.
@ Bunk Five Hawks X:
That’s not how the law works. It says specifically that former presidents get protection for the rest of their lives. “Precedent” doesn’t come into it.
Until that law changes, or the Supreme Court rules otherwise, it’s black letter law. The director of the Secret Service said as much a few days ago. The NY courts and corrections department will have to deal with it.
@ Bunk Five Hawks X:
It’s all irrelevant anyway,because he’s not going to prison. The dipshit judge might sentence him to prison, but it will be stayed pending appeal. And there’s zero chance that the verdict survives on appeal.
This is all a game. They tried to ruin him financially with the civil case and failed. Then they tied him up in court to keep him from campaigning. They assumed that he would be moving on to the next bullshit case, but that’s all falling apart now. It’s not about putting him in prison, because they know these cases are all garbage.
Trump is going to win in November. The only way they can prevent that at this point is the JFK solution.
And yes, they are that desperate to keep him out of office, because they know he’s going to burn it all down.

BREAKING: The US government plans to launch heavily criticized federal ID program, Real ID, for domestic air travel on May 7, 2025, banning all adults from domestic flights unless they have replaced traditional state-issued IDs with Real IDs, raising significant concerns about privacy and state surveillance.

AKA a Texas Driver License.
@ Possum:
It is not that difficult, you only need to show ONE of the above items then you get a nice gold star on the top right corner of your license.
I cannot see how any of that is an invasion of my privacy, it just proves I am who I say I am.
@ Possum:
However what was different is they needed a right and left thumb print. The rest of my fingers are already on file with the FBI
hey y’all
@ eaglesoars:
REAL ID:
Beginning May 7, 2025, the federal government will require your driver license, permit or ID card to be REAL ID compliant if you wish to use it as identification to board a domestic flight (within the U.S.), or enter military bases and certain federal facilities.
Enhanced driver license, permit, or non-driver ID and valid U.S. Passport are already REAL ID compliant and can be used to board a flight.
There is no additional cost to get a REAL ID. All normal transaction fees still apply.
Documentation Required for REAL ID and Enhanced license, permit, non-driver ID
– Proof of Citizenship
– U.S. Birth Certificate
Must be original or certified copy (Hospital certificate will NOT be accepted)
Proof of Social Security Number (SSN)
– U.S. Social Security Card (or)
– Current W2, Paystub, 1099 or 1098 (must display FULL SSN)
– Proof of Identity
– Current NY license, permit, or non-driver ID
– Proof of NY Residence
– Need TWO (2) proofs of physical residence, (with physical address, not PO –
Box) such as*:
– NY driver’s license, permit, or non-driver ID
– NYS Certificate of Title
– NYS Professional License
– Bank Statement (issued within one year)
– US Utility Bill with name and address (issued within one year)
– Credit Card statement on letterhead (issued within one year)
– Property or school tax bill or receipt for current year
– Full list of residency proofs*
———————————————————————-
Common Documents NOT Accepted
Commemorative metal Social Security Cards
– Medicare Cards
– Social Security Card Stubs
– Hospital Certificates (usually have footprints on them)
– Church Certificates for Marriage
– Medical Bills
– College Admissions Letters
———————————————
Well hey, at least we don’t need to have it tattooed on us, right?
First thing that occured to me, being that we are no longer The United States of America, was:
CAN YOU BE DENIED an ID ? And if YES, For WHAT reasons?
– Known Far Right Extremist?
– Known MAGA Supporter?
– Known TRUMP Supporter?
– Photographed wearing MAGA hat on the corner of Maple and Walnut?
I’m always suspicious of changes in Terms of Service, End Users Agreement etc etc as usually when something gets ‘changed’, its not for my benefit.
@ 4_Sticks:
Those are already the documents needed to get a driver license. Nothing has changed from that aspect.
Real ID means that your driver license complies with those requirements, not all states used to need as much proof, now all 50 states are synchronised in the requirements.
The DL now has a fancy bar code thing on the back. It is in PDF-417 format and you can get an app for your phone that reads it and decodes it.
If your license is less than a few years old you have a gold star on it.
Well it has gone very quiet in here.
My guess is everyone took a look at their driver licenses and realised they got the dreaded gold star.
The government are sneaky, they got you tracked…..

So I asked my ‘first cohort’ of the former Red Guard, about what ACTUALLY happened 35 years ago in Tiananmen Square, because he had, by then, changed his philosophy 180 degrees. Just HOW MANY people were killed that morning. Not second or third rate news stories. WHAT did you observe yourself?
He said that he saw 10,000 young people die that morning in the square, or who afterwards died, after laying wounded on blankets, on the tarmac outside the surrounding hospitals, after being crushed and shot by the PLA.
This is a guy at 14 years of age and a Red Guard, who sold his parents ‘down the river’ after declaring that they were intellectuals and had them both sentenced to 2 years of forced labour. He lost 2 years of education whilst a ‘first cohort’ of the Red Guards. At 16 his parents were released from forced Labour in the rice paddies, and made his peace with his parents when they forgave him.

She has been attempting to escape from her ‘gilded cage’ life in Beijing, unsuccessfully. Especially now that both their parents have died at over 90 years of age and no longer remain as an anchor to govern the siblings control by the CCP. ‘L”s aunt was a musicologist and adjunct Professor at the University of Maimi, but was threatened and ground down by Beijing’s CCP by pressuring her parents until she had a breakdown, and she was grabbed back and forced to return to China, where she was arrested and ‘disappeared’ into a government mental hospital never to be seen again!

This is a long read – I haven’t finished – but it is delicious. Some people figured out how to scam the EU out of billions in a rather complex VAT puzzle. The EU waives the VAT on some products in order to encourage cross-border trade. The people engaged in the commerce pay the tax up front, then file the paperwork for the gov’t to reimburse them.
Somebody realized that the gov’t never saw the actual product, just the paperwork. So they started filing reimbursement paperwork on ghost products.
Now comes the good part. Apply that to trading carbon offsets. JACKPOT!

As long as Andrew is talking political retractions in population numbers, may I Segway across the road to discuss the euthanasia of at least 10,000 + elderly in the UK a couple of years ago. It would appear that the UK during Covid -19 there was a WRONGLY attributed statistical spike in deaths of the more elderly cohort. It now turns out that the facts now strongly indicate that Covid amongst the elderly was a ‘bum rap’ . The British elderly were in fact not dying of Covid-19 but rather involuntary euthanasia using a mixture of opiates and the drug Midazolam which supresses breathing and causes death. The statistics clearly show that in excess of 10,000 UK citizens were covertly euthanised by the very doctors who were responsible for treating the elderly for Covid-19.
If there is any justice left in the world perhaps someone might suggest that the responsible doctors within the UK Health Service take the easy way out and voluntarily take an opiate and Midazolam instead of facing life sentences for wilful murder! The long dead NAZIs would find it laughable that their British accusers at Nuremberg are now copying the worst habits of the Third Reich. Add the Dutch and the Canadians to that list as well.

I noted the day when all Covid-19 hell broke out. It was February 22, 2020 and immediately the airspace around Wuhan was restricted by the Chinese aviation bureaucrats, for all Chinese DOMESTIC air traffic operating out of Wuhan.
Interestingly INTERNATIONAL air traffic continued to operate out of Wuhan , across the globe, even when Domestic Chinese air movements totally STOPPED on February 22. The vast bulk of those passengers (mainly Chinese nationals) travelled to the USA landing in a number of major US cities. There was also a lesser number of international passengers (mostly Chinese nationals) travelling to Europe and especially to Italy where over 150,000 Chinese textile workers were operating in Chinese owned Italian based clothing manufacturers’ workshops.
At the end of the second week of March 2020 Western International airlines restricted all international traffic out of Wuhan, when shortly thereafter both US and European airlines ceased international operations out of much of China.
By then, during that 3 week continuance of air contact, over 100,000 passengers flew out of Wuhan and the rest of China and spread Covid-19 globally.
I do NOT think that was an accident.
Given the Domestic restrictions on air travel out of Wuhan from February 22, 2020 the decision to continue with International air operations indicates wilful planning to spread Covid-19 globally by the Chinese government.

I point blank refused to take the ‘clot-jab’ even though I was pressured to cooperate! My GP having given up trying to force the Covid-19 shot onto me, suggested that I get at least a remdisavir shot. Foolishly as it seemed I complied, but since researching remdisavir I believe that I was ‘sold down the river’ by my GP. I refuse to trust my GP, and told him so to his face.
I certainly didn’t take the ‘clot shots’ nor any of the follow up shots. Remdisavir cost an arm and a leg but did ZIP!

In March 2020 I had considered getting the jab, but I’d just had surgery and the onkydoc squelched that idea. I was too pumped up with other drugs and he was concerned about drug interactions.
I’m convinced that the virus the office manager brought back from Miami via LAX in December 2019 was covid. He was in such bad shape that everyone finally convinced him to see a doctor (the diagnosis was some unknown type of pneumonia) but by then he’d infected most of the staff. Even the younger guys who got it were out of commission for weeks. It skipped me.

California has a violence problem on the MTA, and bus drivers are worried about the safety of the passengers and their own. In response, the MTA announced that they’re going to install a panic button near the driver’s seat to push if there’s a problem. A female driver asked what the panic button does. The MTA spokesman said it sounds an alarm and advises passengers to call 911.

I made that mistake. The mulch cannot decompose properly on top of it, so there is no soil enrichment. And, sorry, I got weeds galore. And it wasn’t porous enough to accept the water from the irrigation system
So I paid to have it put down when I laid the front garden and a year later I paid to have it pulled out. What a mess.

I am gaining weight again. Over the last 21 days I have averaged 1639 calories per day and my sodium intake per day was 1032mg which is actually lower than the daily recommended intake.
Last 2 days calories average 1225 and sodium 579mg
Put on TWO pounds and the marks on my legs where the top of my socks live are back again.
Overall I feel better on this diet, and as I noticed before when doing this my joints do not ache. That is VERY noticeable.
But this latest sudden water retention is pissing me off…
@ Possum:
And counting down the minutes until midnight. 20 minutes to go and we start again!
This is more exciting for me than the Starship launch this morning. I log what I eat and drink per 24 hours from midnight to midnight.
So, yesterday as in 6/6/2024 calories will be recorded at 1825
which is more than I would like but at 2am I thought ” fuck this ” and had a fry up. Eggs, bacon, low carb bread, mushrooms. That cost me 800 calories and put a big dent in the day. Plus I had some naughty beers. Still only 28g carbs for the day though.
Now as midnight approaches I still have beer in the fridge, which after doing a quick calculation means if I drink it all today is going to be a lettuce day.
Starting to think easiest way to lose weight is have a leg amputated.

The weed barrier we have works pretty well. The only place they come up is at the edges. It’s not 100%, but lots better than without.
I want to put some kind of ground cover close to the house next year, both in back and on the side, and put pavers by the gate and in front of the potting shed.
The rubber mulch looks pretty good, and the color lasts better.

A CT scan report in April indicated SERIOUS arterial calcification, and at the first appointment with a cardiologist (who coincidentally was my father’s cardio doctor), he declared “It’s bullshit,” and said that the people who write up the reports have no basis for such interpretations, but they have to check a box. Subsequent ECG showed everything to be normal; stress test was inconclusive as my heart rate didn’t go much higher than 80 bpm, hence the PET scan. Doc Cardio said it looks good, maybe we’ll have lunch in a year or so.

Why does it seem that folks who have their ‘shit’ together and are attempting to live by traditional moral codes seem to be getting decisions right all the time. Meanwhile those who aren’t in that place, seem to be forever deep in the ‘shit’ and seem to always be on the bad and sad side of the ledger.
That’s not to say that those with their ‘shit’ together never fall off the bike! But what separates them is that they recognise their mistakes and make a conscious effort to get right back up and climb back on that bike even when it’s a challenge sometimes.
It seems natural that these flawed individuals with their ‘shit’ together, most of the time, actually make decisions that almost always turn out to be valid and true. What we experience as secular decisions that demand a choice, also seem to be masking a covert non-secular battle, that drives those overt decisions. It’s difficult to put your finger on the drivers behind decision making, but ‘gut instinct’ seems to be well to the fore when those decisions that tend to turn out to be both valid and true.
Funny that!

Solved the gaining weight issue.
It appears if I only get 4-5 hours sleep in a 24hr period I gain weight.
Sleeping 12-14hrs and I lose weight.
@ Possum:
I am religious about sleep. MINIMUM 8 hours even during shift work.
The brain needs the mental hygiene.
Anyway an update on Mein Kampf ( which is German for ” My Struggle” ) and weight loss.
Heading in the right direction, rate of weight loss is slowing down as the initial weight loss was due to water associated with loss of glycogen stores, and initial fat loss.
Urine tests confirm I am burning fat as fuel even when I do not actually eat any fat. So my body has switched metabolic state from being carbohydrate based to fat based.
Now the challenge is to get my daily intake of calories way down. Fats, proteins and carbs. Aiming for a few days of 500.
That means I have to quit my daily six pack of Michelob Ultra as that is currently HALF my daily calorie intake. Do not know why I even drink it anymore because at a rate of a six pack a day I never get shit faced and pass out, so what is the point?
As to essential nutrients I am taking men complete multivitamins and also women multivitamins. The one a day complete kind. Interesting fact is neither provide 100% of everything.
Noticeably the men version has ZERO iron.
Cauliflower, spinach, cucumbers and Skinny Girl salad dressings are my friends.

Wine tasting inspired this new plan.

I wonder if I could eat bacon sandwiches with real bread, chew each bite to extract the flavour then spit it out?
That way I wouldn’t get fat again.

One hour and 27 minutes until midnight when I close out the daily spread sheet of calories, carbohydrates and other nutrients.

Anyway, no mater how hard I tried I could not spit it back out. Swallowed the whole sandwich. A piss test 2 hours later told me I didn’t do any damage to my metabolism.
As you mentioned birds, I thought of Cormorants used for catching fish. They put a ring around the bird’s neck so it can’t swallow the fish.
Going to try that, I have a set of jumper leads and no car. Thinking of wrapping them around my neck to prevent me swallowing food.
On a sad note, Walmart order arrived minus 36 eggs but plus a pound of Italian sausage. Easy mistake to make I suppose….

The one I had a play with flew flawlessly until a few months after I had gone back to Vanimo strip in NW New Guinea the Dornier has a little ‘whoops’! The guy who flew it all over the Eastern highlands of PNG told a local guy looking after a short strip with a 45 degree half way down the strip, to …. ” go raise ’em all the bullamacows off the place Balis” … (AKA move all of the cattle off the airstrip) as he was about to take off.
The local who looked after the strip and cut the grass did a great job moving the cattle BUT he left the HORSES behind! ‘The captain belong balis (AKA the pilot) rounder the dog leg half way down the strip and discovered 20 horses !
He kicked a boot full of rudder trying to ‘ground loop’ and airplane and stop, but ran into half a ton of horse, which did the horse no good at all and tore off the Port winglet and attached port engine and the D0-28 ended up in a 2 metre deep monsoon drain. This did no good at all to the Dornier 28 , and it was written off!

Now if you want a serious STOL airplane then there is nothing better than a Helio Courier.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXoWf94wNDA
Used a LOT in Cambodia, Laos and ‘Nam by the CIA during the ‘nam’ war for covert personal insertion as well as in the New Guinea Aitupe Mission station. A crazy Scot-Pole pilot named Marak Klinski flew one out od Aitupe mission station down the north coast of PNG between Vanimo and Wewak. His father flew for the Royal Air Force in 1940-1945 in the Polish squadrons of the RAF fighter command. Josep Klinski ended up marring a Scots girl and Marak popped our in 1946 ready to go fly!
Marak the son flew a Piper Comanche on the London to Melbourne air race and then ended up flying a Helio for the Franciscan missions in Aitupe. He scared the living shit out of mess the Helio had SPAN wide leading slats that were spring loaded. At about 10 feet and just above 40 knots there was a huge BANG as the springs popped back into the wing leading edge and I almost emptied my bowels as I thought we were about to DIE! Marak thought it was terrible funny.
The Helio didn’t actually have a minimum speed. Somewhere in the manuals there was a speed of 28MPH (Not knots … bloody MILES PER HOUR) where gravity sucked harder than the lift sucked us upwards and the airplane just settled down s-l-o-w-l-y!
From memory the Helio cruised well over 120-140 Knots and had about a 900 mile range
What an aircraft!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXoWf94wNDA
One day at Vanimo strip in PNG I watched this ultra STOL airplane land into a 30 knot Easterly blowing straight down the strip. The airplane approached the end of the Vanim strip with my taxiway and hangar right at the end of the strip. The airplane was doing about 40 knots True airspeed with a ground speed of 10 knots. It crawled over the end of the strip and based the taxiway turn-off at 10 feet above the ground and flew another 20 years further on . Then maintained 10 feet and pulled the power back tad and the airplane actually flew BACKWARDS into a 30 know headwind. When abeam the taxiway turn off he put the airplane the last 10 feet in the air onto the ground. This magnificent flying machine landed VERTICALLY and its wheels DIDN’T ROTATE.
WE all raced out and grabbed onto the wingtips and fuselage and held it onto the ground and the driver nodded his head and we eased off leaning on the airplane and the guys on the upswing side hanged off the wingtip as the aircraft was turned cross-wind and it taxied towards my hangar.
The Helio Courier. What a magnificent airplane.
🙂
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXoWf94wNDA
I know that you do NOT believe that the Helio can fly backwards but in a 30 Knot headwind with an ability to stay airborne at 28MPH (about 25 Knots) you can Actually fly BACKWARDS and land VERTICALLY just as long as you have a bit of finesse on the throttle and don’t over-control on ailerons. After all you have a whole 5 knots ‘differential’ between TAS (True Airspeed) and Ground speed. Seeing a fixed wing airplane flying backwards and landing vertically is quite a spectacle!

North Korea Added 20 Nukes to Its Arsenal in 2023
North Korea is believed to possess 50 nuclear weapons – 20 more than in the past year, the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) revealed in its annual report published on Monday on global militaries.
SIPRI’s “Yearbook 2024 Armaments, Disarmament and International Security” reportassesses the known arsenals of nuclear states as well as global military development. It once again found that the vast majority of known nuclear weapons are in the possession of America and Russia, but that communist China is making significant efforts to expand and modernize its own arsenal. Notably, the report documented “the first time China is believed to have some warheads on high operational alert” in 2024.
“SIPRI estimates that the country has now assembled around 50 warheads and possesses enough fissile material to reach a total of up to 90 warheads,” the report found, “both significant increases over the estimates for January 2023.”
“While North Korea conducted no nuclear test explosions in 2023, it appears to have carried out its first test of a short-range ballistic missile from a rudimentary silo,” SIPRI noted. “It also completed the development of at least two types of land-attack cruise missile (LACM) designed to deliver nuclear weapons.”
In 2023, SIPRI estimated that North Korea possessed 30 assembled warheads. North Korea has not tested a nuclear weapon since 2017 but regularly threatens to use its nuclear weapons against South Korea, in which it is in a state of formal war halted only by an armistice agreement signed in 1953.
The Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), the state news outlet of North Korea, announced in April that Kim Jong-un had allegedly led a “combined tactical drill simulating a nuclear counterattack,” an escalation implying North Korea was preparing to use a nuclear bomb. The drill allegedly sent “a clear warning signal to the enemies as it was conducted at a time when the enemies’ military confrontation racket against the DPRK [North Korea] is being committed with extremely provocative and aggressive nature.”
North Korea’s 50 warheads were counted alongside a complete global nuclear tally of 12,121 existing warheads as of January 2024. About a third of these – 3,904 – are believed to be actively deployed. Over 90 percent of them belong to Russia.

Nuclear weapons are very high on the list of recycled materials. The greens should be thrilled.
We haven’t manufactured any plutonium since 1989, and have no plans to make any more. Since it has a half life of 24,000 years, it’s not like it’s going to go bad anytime soon. I wonder how many people realize that when warheads are dismantled under arms reduction treaties, the fissile materials are just put into storage?
We have about 87 tons of plutonium in storage, along with nearly 500 tons of highly enriched uranium. They really should figure out something to do with the latter, since we don’t actually use it anymore. I’m about 99% certain that every warhead in our current inventory is plutonium based.
Funny…I just looked at Schumer’s deleted Tweet again. I just noticed that it says this alleged cookout was at the new house his “daughter and her wife” bought.

When we did our Boeing 737 conversion there were four of us and an instructor with a huge handlebar moustache. We all got a turn at altitude finding the edges of the flight envelope with the instructor in the Port seat. Steep turns and stalling with varying flap and gear settings. Flapless approaches and engine out go arounds with a soft base and such . Then we headed low over the Canterbury Plains and fooled about generally having serious fun. The Boeing 737 empty can out climb and OUT TURN an old A-4 Skyhawk which were the standard Kiwi fighter way back then. This fact really PISSED off the ‘knuckle-heads’ from 75 squadron 🙂
Then we headed down to 500 All for some illicit low flying as airlines seem to be a bit against low flying airliners for some unknown reason, but we owned the sky from 500 feet to FL 400 so why not ?
WE found the Instructors farm house and did rate two turns overhead at 500 feet until his good lady wife came out onto the verandah waving a white sheet at us. Did a few low slow passes and chandelles and then did some serious high speed passes at low altitude at Mach .72 and a pull up into a blue sky over the farmhouse to finish off.
We all passed the Check Out

Yup I’d say that practically all warheads have Pu cores these days. When Oz decided to go nuclear with Brit help although the AAEC (Australian Atomic Energy Commission) owned all of the tech from the fissile and thermo-nuclear designs that the UK used so all we needed was the fuel. That was going to be produced by twin breeder reactors at Nowra a Naval Aviation Station down the coast south of Sydney….. Until the Kennedy Administration UN DECIDED Oz going nuclear. Which rather pissed off both the Brits and Aussies. The US were worried about nuclear proliferation it seemed.
Two decades later Brisbane University and the Australian National University in Canberra physics departments invented a highly classified tech that got rid of the need for the nominal enrichment processes. The US had a ‘Connumption fit’ and demanded that Australia give the US the tech and restrict the processed to remain for US and Australian eyes ONLY. The fear was that any man or his dog could produce cheap fissile material to 90% easily, and that terrified the US Administration! Otherwise anyone could isolate bomb grade fissile material. The US even refused to allow the Brits to get access to the tech! And that’s where it remains today!

It’s all based on the fact that contrails produced by modern airliners look and behave differently from the ones from the ’60s and ’70s. There’s a good reason for that, though. The engines used today are different. Early jets used turbojet engines. Modern ones use high-bypass turbofans. They produce a “fluffier” contrail. People have decided that means they’re spraying some unknown chemicals under orders from the government, apparently.

Eat less calories than you burn per day and you lose weight. It is not rocket science.

@ Possum:
I wish I weighed 205.
