    "And "spelt" is not a valid word - it is "spelled". " http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=spelt I beg to differ....Maybe you should look up a dictionary more often?

    "For an Angel" always stonks. Anything from Leftwing's Leftism album, Release the Pressure, and Open Up spring to mind. FAtboy slim's Right Here Right Now works.

    PM'd this to you, but thought it might be useful to others.... http://www.decadry.com/En/p_info.asp?Produit=OCC715 Expensive, but coolio, you don't have to print them all on this stuff. -------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

    "I guess a duty to check the fuel for contaminants may come into it too" Its really easy to test fuel for contaminants such as water. This should really be done during every refuel cycle in places such as the UK (think condensation). I think there is a little test connection on the bottom of most aircraft tanks. For a typical fuelling procedure see section 8 here.... http://www.caa.co.uk/docs/33/Cap437.pdf This CAA doc is actually for helicopters on offshore platforms, but you can get the gist. I'm pretty sure similar procedures apply for light aircraft, but am not familiar with them. -------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

    G forces involved will normally only affect the cut away load/pull force during a spinning mal. Some food for thought here...http://www.bpa.org.uk/skydive/pages/articles/dec03/cutting-away.html Once you have got rid of the main the G forces should be dramatically reduced and the reserve pull should be straightforward. I think 22lbs (10kg) is the max allowed here in the UK, more usually its around the 12-16lb (5-7 kg) mark, on my gear anyways... -------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

    Keep it. Use it as a deck for editing or harvesting footage. Just cos the lens is cream crackered doesn't mean you can't hook up a wee bullet cam.

    "1. can anyone confirm that they come with a lanc port?" They don't, but its fairly simple to mod an adaptor (battery charger) that will give you this feature. Still not ideal as the adaptor will stick out the side of the camera. http://www.skytools.m.se/docs/lancconverter.pdf "2. should i side mount or top mount on my batrak" Entirely up to you. I've had one since they came out, been through a fair amount of abuse and am finally considering a replacement, anyone got a PC7E for sale? -------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

    "it's stills pics..." Oh, I am sorry, please forgive me, for some reason I thought you were talking about moving pictures... "- i want to put the movie in a project of Premier 5" "-give me the material as it is - on video." "i want that movie to be in my project! please help!" And you don't have a video card? Do you have any sort of firewire or analogue inputs at all? Your going to need some sort of video interface, or the means to transfer moving pics from tape to say memory card or equivalent..... For what its worth, premiere could not work with OHCI compatible files till version 6. Prior to that, codecs were hardware specific for the camera interface. EG if you wanted to output your movie via, say a miro DV300 card, you had to have the correct mirodv codec. -------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

    A lot of motor cycle gloves are designed to protect your hand if you come off, hence the thick palms. Try a pair of Neumann gloves I think the ones I have are 'batter' type, but I don't know for sure. Oh, and with them on, do all your PRCPs and emergency procedures.....Things will feel different. -------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

    Premiere 5 was as buggy as a bunkhouse mattress. I wouldn't even begin to try and get it to work. Go with 4.2 or 6 (6 or later preferred) and you'll have much better luck. How did you get the rest of your movie footage onto your computer? -------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.
