    I didn't suggest this, but if they get real low a potato cannon will put a good hole in the fuselage.

    They were just investigating the totally out of character behaviour of one of the Shire's more notable residents.












































    Such an unusual sight for you be at home on such a beautiful Autumn weekend Baz ....................................... when more often than not you're out inspecting the bush and checking the tracks.

    when they spray for mozzies here in Brisbane they fly really low, so low in fact that my house sits on a small hill around 50ft above sea level and the helicopters fly lower than our house on the spray run, rise turn and bank on the ends and thats when they get LOUD. close enough at times to throw things at then no need for guns or such

It appears it may have landed at the mine at 11:45. (vanished off radar so either landed or headed off down the valley)
    Reappeared again from the south at 13:58 (maybe headed off to refuel ?)

    It apparently landed at the oval at Stanwell Park for some reason, no fuel truck spotted, Sunday it was over our place for 2hrs before it bugger off north, a work mate said it started Friday arvo near the Temple area.

    When we first noticed it it was over Garawarra just west of our place for a couple of hours and slowly worked it's way around the Burgh.

    Odd, guess we may find out in the local rag, thanks Bushie.

    It wouldn't surprise me if Google was beta-testing aerial mapping or something!

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.
