[The Sad Punk]

Have a good one, Vaz.

IT'S A RACE!

Two Comengs heading south out of Spencer Street.

 

[The Sad Punk]

Ian, do you go on a lot of flights or do you just ask politely to go into planes and take photos?

or do you sneak in

 

[Axver]

Yes, that makes us giggle too. As does the common abbreviation "F/O" that comes back on some service orders, which, of course, stands for Field Officer.

This meter, believe it or not, is the bane of our existence. Some idiot decided that EVERYONE should start using them, except the systems of every single electricity distributor and probably retailer too, was in no way set up to accommodate them. So they're a fucking nightmare. We've got like 3 people working FULL TIME on the damn things just to keep them billing properly.

HATE HATE HATE. If I could have got away with some sort of ritual burning, I would have torched the thing.

Ah, sweet impracticality!

 

[The Sad Punk]

Heh, Ax - remember how I had a shot last night?

Well, I'm going to do that again.

 

[Alisaura]

Seeya Vazza!

 

[coolian2]

For some reason I can't quote your post Bonnie, but I just take a million photos whenever I do get the chance to fly.

 

[Alisaura]

Ian has inside-plane pics too??

 

[Axver]

Ian, I can't get the quotage to work either. And when I bring up the reply screen, the latest post it shows is Bonnie's farewell to Vazza.

But I was going to say that you must do favours for the flight attendants like a good little boy.

 

[coolian2]

Is anyone else utterly unable to quote posts after Bonnie said goodbye to Vazza?

 

[coolian2]

I wish, Ax.

 

[Axver]

Hey, look, not a passenger train! A freight! I was excited by this. I'd been trying to photograph the Long Island Steel for ages. Here it is with XR 551 and BL 24 at the southern end of Spencer Street.

 

[Alisaura]

A CT set-up... those big copper things are called busbars, which I found amusing for some reason.

Seems you've already forgotten his purity score?

Hurrah, I got this to work.

Now a bit of a rarity - Ozjet 737-200

I couldn't before, but this totally works.

Night folks

Already owned myself a few posts earlier.

Seeya

 

[Axver]

I wish, Ax.

Nah, it's probably not a bad thing. I tend to assume flight attendants are airheads. Possibly mean, but everybody I know who has become a flight attendant has been a bimbo or a moron.

 

[The Sad Punk]

Take care, BEG!

 

[coolian2]

Another one of the Ozjet 732

 

[Axver]

Have a good one, BEG.

 

[The Sad Punk]

Two of my uncles are pilots! They're both rich and live in Sydney. I like them both, though.

Probably not a generally unfair assumption, although I'd like to think they're fairly clued up when my safety is part of their job description.

That looks like a police plane or something...!
