Phil Perry Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 PLEASE . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Ladies and gents, I AM TRULY SORRY. That post was simply a rather weak joke,. . . . . . . As one poster has mentioned, it's "Mildly" topical in England at the moment, . . . . . . . and thank you to the couple of flyers who have posted factual information regarding the state of affairs where you are. I REALLY Didn't wish to throw a pork chop into a muslim / jewish barbecue with this,. . . . .it was merely a forwarded jokey email and nothing more. From the truly Volcanic response, . . . . I gather that immigration is a bit of a sore point in Australia too. I shall choose my humour more carefully in future. Apolitical ( or is it Apoplectic. . . .?) Phil
Old Koreelah Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 No worries, Phil. Many of us have strong views and I was quite reticent to present mine. I hope I haven't upset anyone; in fact most responses have been pretty considered and polite. Ian started a great thread recently where we all started actually talking about aeroplanes again. Time to do that again. All the best for 2014.
metalman Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 All good mate, I get a bit riled up over it as do many here but I also believe it's good to debate things ,to much is left unsaid ,cheers and have a happy new year Matty
winsor68 Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 Remember. These are human being you are talking about.
fly_tornado Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 Phil, things have changed in the colonies, you are just lucky you live in England. Been years since we had a good old sing a long with the Black and White Minstrels.
Bandit12 Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 No stress Phil - with the rise of political correctness, so came the death of humour.
planedriver Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 No stress Phil - with the rise of political correctness, so came the death of humour. Surely not! These days, so as to not offend anyone, new ADR directives indicate that preferences in design approval for magic carpets, will be shown to those who's pilots take off en-masse from the cockpit kneeling position, and in an easterly direction at sunrise.
104chocks Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 Remember this is 2014 - some of the xenophobic attitudes here are from a bygone age. Australia is built on migration - Australia IS migration - the local native population has seen you all arrive over the past few hundred years. Australia never was a white country. Loosen those blinkers. http://www.humanrights.gov.au/ Anybody remember aviation.
turboplanner Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 So now we have two feral threads - doesn't take much.
