  8. They only have about 55 kms of Battery range. MAX. Someone's having you on.
  9. It all helps. Katherine is a lot hotter than Darwin. Used to fly into the Town strip at about Midnight with Bugga all runway guidance. Moved operations to RAAF Tyndall in 1969. Nev

  11. They've always Killed a lot of people when training till simulators came along. .. Give it a Burl (meaning GO) is another. . Nev
  12. Artificially Kept low service costs and after a while who Knows? Like I said the Motors get a Hard time. Sudden start to high demand and revs from a smallish engine.. You have ALL the things a Normal Ice car has whereas an EV requires near no servicing bar wiper blades and tyres.. Nev
  13. Probably the First World war. I wasn't born till the start of the second and I hope to never have a 3rd. Wars are MADNESS. Nev
  14. . He forgot the toilet Paper. It will be in short supply as well as most things, if trucks can't get Fuel. If he had a Prang, He'd have Burn problems as well. Prang is an old aviation term. Nev

  17. Mercators is Not orthomorphic or conformal. One NZ flight regularly passes about 80nm north of Melbourne, at very high altitude. Some days you can see the contrails. When the Poles appear as big as the equator there's a lot of distortion. A string on a globe between ant 2 points will be a great circle. All lines of Longitude are great circles as is the equator. Nev

  22. The Qld Government subsidised fuel prices to gain votes. Nev
  23. Hybrids give the engine a hard time and are as requiring of maintenance as any ICE car is. Perhaps even more, long term. It appeals to people who want to have the best of both worlds The actual range on the Battery is very short and the vehicles are expensive. Out of warrantee I wouldn't want to OWN one.. I HAVE driven them and find them unpleasant and the fuel saving varies a lot depending whether its Hilly or higher constant speed on the flat.
  24. Rubber is a very flexible word. Holey rubber can mean disaster, Nev
  25. Aren't you getting some NOW? 1900. Nev
