    I wish I was smart enough to be an Aircraft Engineer

    I often cross paths with travelrover as we live in the same area - you do find the Defenders in the Hawkesbury are a friendly bunch

    Q. Your Col110 was the username of a bloke I used to swap mails with some years ago on a UK Forum & wondered if he may have been the same bloke.

    My Col110 was an Aircraft Engineer, ex RAAF & lived in the western area of NSW. His moniker was ColS 110 though. Thought it could have been him, the world being such a small place.
    Last heard of in the Emirates working for a ME Airline but that was some years ago.

    You'll do. FWIW, I still have all those images you may have sent me on the last day of the UK BA Concord

    Thanks again. I think.

    Scratch that. I forgot about a bloke in a Perentie who I often see on the dirt roads/off road tracks around here. Not got a wave from him yet!

    Maybe he thinks these new fangled Pumas aren't proper Defenders Where's the Defender wave gone?

    Well, mine looks like a Defender, it sounds like a Defender and it leaks like a Defender, so I believe that mine definitely IS a Defender Where's the Defender wave gone?

    Two waves this morning in the Hawkesbury. Saw a new defender heading towards me and I almost waved. He looked like he was about to also. But yeah, nah not today ;-)

    ummm it doesnt take much smarts to be an aircraft engineer.

    Many of the a/c engineers in the defence forces are not even qualified tradesman , some were apprentices , most appys accelerate quite quickly through the rank selection process , but most are adult trade trainees who go to the RAAF School of Technical Training and do 12-18mths of "like this do that...until you get it right" type of training.

    Very much sounds like the hesitation you both experienced before putting one's arm around one's first Girl friend & having one's first snog. Will she? Wont's she? & afterwards "Geez I'm glad I did."
