  1. Well said, in other news most people hurt by modelflying propellors fly aeromodels. You could cause damage to the trade that supports us and the BMFA et al, think what you post.
  2. Got told yesterday 3G phones to be phased out this year, would the sim card in my phone work with a 4G phone ?
  3. Tail or headwind would effects I.C Martin, you're just more conscious of it now.
  4. Very interesting topic. One which gets some people holding strong stances in favour or against. Over population ? Yes it's a fact, so is what that population does whilst it's on the planet, cherry picking ? Steam and coal brought great change, anyone in any doubt it brought problems as well ? Pollution was horrendous where I grew up, rivers open sewers air quality, you could see it and taste it over any pit village or large industrial citys/towns, anyone doubt that changes that came about improved things ? Tall buildings any different to wind farms ? Can't see wind/solar/water being described as clean or free myself, cleaner and better for the planet I do see, emissions reduced by not burning I see. Tyre residue ? My cars I.C It's tyres wear.
  5. Advertisers do and always have painted a pretty picture, they do and did on I.C or any other product. The Emperors clothes comment exists for some minds, but not in the EV owners minds, they do point the disadvantages out, dyed in the wool I.C advocates focus on these as attack points, they're your Emperors clothes. Subsidy ? Diesel (I.C) had it in spades via Zero or low road tax, I'm astounded you missed that. Maybe the arguements bigger than the depreciation on value, you have to start somewhere, unless you believe it's all a conspiracy ? Elephant in the room ? The human race.
  6. Scotland game, It was there to lose and Scotland went into protect a slender lead mode, and duly lost it.
  7. Should have our league there for you to click Erf, then click rejoin.
  8. Look at the bottom of screen, should be a Rejoin option.
  9. England game drove me crazy, ref fussed over the scrum so much he killed much of the game. Yellow for Cheshum, his body and arms were good in the tackle, TMO said so, player came down to him, Yellow card ? Well there's head contact ? Later in the game Cheshums off for an HIA, think an elbow caught his head, no intent, no bad tackle, no card ?
  10. Personally I am sick of the slow mo micro managing in sport, it adds nothing. Did it look like a try ? Yes from one angle, from another who knows. Let refs ref.
  11. Didn't see many complaints, from the diesel users getting a special deal on their dubious cleaner vehicles, one mans incentive is anothers "Oooh I'm offended". Change is coming, and yes there'll be issues and given dates not met, so what's new ?
  12. Pushing yourself reaps benefits, your skills improve, your mishaps lessen, the range of models you'll fly expands. Comforts zones are bad things, in an emergency you need to react correctly, favouring left or right may cause bad choices to be made.
  13. You can't delete franny, tell me which add (link) and I'll do it. It this one ?
  14. Off topic posts removed, apologies to those who had quoted in good faith. Please allow Toto and others to enjoy the thread, if you want to discuss other topics, start a thread.
  15. https://forums.modelflying.co.uk/index.php?/search/&q=bae hawk&quick=1
  16. That's very impressive Dave, few kills to your name as well. 👍
  17. GS Irelands to lose. No Idea where England or Italy are, good to see new players being used though. Wales v Scotland, crazy game, good watch though. Jiffy gets worse, please retire him.
  18. We aren't all as familiar with the tinternet, Erics had a break and looking for opinions and advice.
  19. Could well be Mike, no Johny for Ireland, Du Pont opted for Olympic sevens, lot of changes for England and others.
