Some TV stations here do carry a position of the Jetstream as
a band of moving arrows, but as you said above, the same can
apply here , and does.

Aaah saw some of that on the news.

Another factor you might remember that made our WX, was the war
and the materials in the shells whatever exploding, seeded clouds
and WX was mixed up for a few years afterwards, as what we got
in Scotland and Northern England. Now we have other factors
going on ...and yes...still wars.
> NL is cheaper and the locals are friendly and speak English.
Thats familar. But then English is a second language in most
countrys. I liked your observations, as I have watched people
in southern Brasil playing in the snow. Yes sir, no plows,
no salt, and no fireplace to keep warm , when whacko WX arrives.

Yeah..some airports can not take them due to size, and there
was a news report of an A380 in taxi due to size clipping another
parked jet.
Nothing yet on the Day of the Jackal coming to the TV again
but yeah I'd love to see it. The tests are a good part of
what can happen. I have seen those flicks too where the
target is right in the sights. Shoot and get it over, and nowadays
mostly on TV shows. I would have just taken the shot.
Agreement with you in control breathing, and once that x fills
the target ... boom ..on it's way. As for hair triggers, I've
had a few like that, and in target shooting, I think I too
would perfer it, as some triggers you squeezed a bit knowing
the next squeeze is a hair trigger reaction. No time to think
but do what you trained for..to hit targets. Not me nowadays.

How true...how true. Sooner or later our old men...ooh Great
whatevers we are old aren't we? Oh well some will just BS our
comments, and thats ok, who cares.

Sorry Ian, for keeping this one short, but I have to call Maria
in BRASIL [<0>] ... so catch up later. She is looking after
our new arrival there, as well in a month or so, another bundle of
joy...so she'll be double helping.
