Its rare that the big (or smaller) stations don't have airstrips.
I always loved landing on dirt/sod instead of concrete. There’s something primal about it - like black powder instead of smokeless.

28 minutes ago, Buckshot Bear said:THE LARGEST CATTLE STATION IN THE WORLD - ANNA CREEK STATION.The Anna Creek Station was bought by Sir Sidney Kidman, Australia’s so-called “cattle king”, who owned large areas of land across Australia during his lifetime.Kidman was thirteen when he ran away from his Adelaide home in 1870 with only 5 shillings in pocket and a one-eyed horse that he had bought with his savings. His teen years, Kidman worked as a drover, stockman and livestock trader, and made money supplying services to new mining towns springing up in outback. Eventually he had saved enough to buy his own station.Kidman began gobbling up one estate after another until he was the biggest landholder in the world by World War I. At one point, the size of Kidman’s properties exceeded the size of the entire United Kingdom.His family still owns more than 10 million hectares, or about three-quarters the size of England. With a herd of 185,000 cattle, S. Kidman & Co is one of Australia's largest beef producers.
Looks like an airstrip on the edge of the property in the third pic.

6,8 & 12 cylinder bikes
I’ll bet synching the carbs and adjusting the valve lash on the Kawasaki would be interesting. The Honda too. These 2 are the only ones out of the bunch I would like to ride.
I rode a Kawasaki Mach 3 750 triple a couple of times back around 1971-72. Acceleration was mind-numbing and combined with marginal stability for such a bike. Think I might have had to change my underwear after my second (and last) ride…
Oh, to be young and stupid again!

The best thing to come out of Iowa is I-35…
Apologies to my Iowa pards. That’s a cheesy Kansas City joke!

Hijack alert!!
Ok, so the M-79 was deemed obsolete as a stand-alone weapon and also not versatile enough, so it was combined with the AR platform to make the M-203. But now, the M-203 is obsolete and they're going back to a stand-alone weapon with an improved version of the M-79 with the M-320? I don't get it.

Have you seen our brother Carl??
We heard he was around here somewhere.
Is that an MG-42? And is that Aaron Rogers preparing to fire on the defensive line?

Yep. That AIM-9 came loose during landing. Happened about 15 years ago.
Somewhere down the line the image was reversed.
I can make out a correctly oriented letter E ahead of the cockpit. Could he have been landing on the centerline deck?

I hate to tell you guys this but you've been fooled. I was looking for the LA Times article because I wanted to see what part of LA he was from and I found this:
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/gold-member/
I realize Snopes isn't very reliable either but when I couldn't find anything from the LA Times, I have to think they're correct.
I did the same, but didn’t consult Snopes. There is no story to be found about this supposed person. I’m amazed people fall for this s**t.

Bottom line....something new, government subsidized, failed.
The only "subsidies" this attempt at maritime fuel savings is the usual business tax breaks
Tax breaks ARE subsidies and they are never-ending. Take away the taxpayer support and the entire green energy gambit dies overnight.
Now, let’s take this dead horse topic to a new thread and leave this meme thread alone.
