We need to create some heartfelt awareness. We need to do something. Type these four words in reply if you agree.....

Paper planes
(Preview)
Wish I put more effort in studying paper & cardboard planes in primary school. Waxed paper or cardboard is very difficult for radar to see. Paper planes vs $50m metal planes. Paper wins!

(Preview)
Rather curious, I find, how many Grey Nomads do not identify by First Name on this Forum and choose to remain "Anonymous" behind Avatars and Pseudonyms. I tend to seek a First Name when responding to posts, but hey, I may be old school.
