RC Plane Crash into tree - rescue efforts
Up up and away
Wow
I hate the royal family
Use rc planes to remake 9/11
Back when Christianity was acknowledged.
Yeah & if we are fortunate enough, in time it will go the way of all the other fictional, fairy-tale religions.
👿 BETTER TV BACK THEN NO BS PROPOGANDA GARBAGE 😈😈😈😈😈
Nurses still dressed like nurses
$6/minute for an overseas call is like $32/minute today!
How loud is that diesel.
Gosh. And, we moved to Brisbane in October 1980. I love Brisbane and miss it very much.
Kiss a cop campaign LOL. Imagine a campaign like that in 2022..hilarious
Wow, $6.46 for 3 minute call to the UK. Now with whatsapp it's less than 6 cents
Wow Ansett and TAA, both airlines were forced to close because of the lack of action of the Liberal National Party. Betty's Xmas Message is now only going to 25% of the world as her empire is shrinking and will continue to shrink until she removes Chucky from the succession
Rubbish Ansett was private not the Governments job to run an air line. Ansett should have run the company Better.
Was so beautiful and white back the
Girls looked so clean cut then. No tatoos.
Not a buttcheek seen or lower back tattoo shown.
@@Lemon83166 Don't mind the but Cheeks. Ha, ha.
It was a great place then..Before infiltration..😔
I used to love the old greyhound buses
Three wise men, gee thats definitely rare right now
Haha, it would offend the other religions and woke these days.
I remember Christmas 1979, but that was outside Queensland for me. I remember a guy saying to others on the CB radio that he got all his Christmas grog in one package deal for $ 124.00 [ I think it was ], and so he had it all sorted. I remember the advertised offer on the local radio or TV. And I was thinking, " What ? Crazy ! ", but someone assured me that such is basically what they mostly do, even if some of us, like myself, don't.
Back when Aussies could afford to live in Australia.
yep exactly
I dont think so. Most of these men worked 2 jobs or did shit loads of OT. 50-60hr weeks with none of this OHS stictness. People had thicker skin 50yrs ago. Everything was analog too, you had to go out for everything. Fk life would have been stressful!
Loved the 70s in Brisbane when I was a teenager... Wish I could go back there and stay there... World today has changed too much, prefer the old days when things were a little bit slower and simpler. Admittedly there are a few positives in the 21st century, but still like the old days...
im 100% with you
You need to get out and force yourself to experience what it is now, and make new memories. You're just nostalgic about what it was back then but you can make new memories and 20yrs later you will definately miss today as well haha.
@@Lemon83166 if you ask people of my age, they will most likely agree with my sentiments. What is there to remember and cherish from the last even 10 years of the 21st Century? If you can produce legitimate highlights of this new century I'd be interested to see what you come up with.
I was in grade 9 back when this was filmed, Wonderful time to be alive.
Even the 2007 presentation seems vintage.
No wise men or virgins in Brissie
Your right. That's why they had bring over some Kiwis to fill the roles.
Manual telephone exchanges, Telecom, Ansett, TAA - so many things that no longer exist.
Crazy to think if you couldn't get your cash out you were stuck...we really have it easy now!
It certainly was a different and slower-paced world back then 😊
Yer right; Till BIG brother freezes your bank account cause they thought you did something wrong. "Give me cash any day" Back then you were payed cash in a pay slip and only banked want was left over.
This video itself can be considered as a flashback which showed us the TV program in 2007.
Your reply itself is a flashback to 2 years ago.
Most of these aren't RC though..
TAA!
Brisbane back then was so different to what it is today. From big country town to global city...
Exactly, as a child and young adult growing up in Sydney I have very fond memories of the few visits we had to relatives in Brissy. I refused to believe it was a city but that is what they called it, complete with corner stores everywhere that had all but died out in Sydney. The trains were so clean and people so friendly. Every visit without exception there was a "that would never happen in Sydney" encounter. Regrettably Brissy is falling fast and isn't much more than 20 years behind Sydney now
What about the car plant at strathpine,does anybody remember that.
Can't say that I do. There wasn't that much industry out that way until the 1980s when Brendale Industrial Estate was developed except for the paper mill at Petrie.
If it was 1979 in Brisbane....really it was 1969 in cultural terms when Sydney was actually on 1979....
The eleventh year of the Sir Joh theocracy.
Good old Sir Joh better than the labour rubbish that followed like Palachook.
no foreigners in those days. specially coconuts from over the ditch.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Scott Bryant - Yeah need to send 90% back to Jacinta - “Not at this address” 🥥🥥
the fake government invite an additional 250 thousand immigrants into the AUSTRALIA ponzi scheme every year. that's why there is a pyramid on the roof of parliament house and they have it fenced off. nz parliament is the shape of a beehive.
I believe the foreigners were in Sunnybank lol.
I went to Sunnybank shops and I thought I was in Sydney or Melbourne!
I remember this all very well
david jones logo looking the exact same
"The yuge Christmas rush" True blue mate!
I tried to call my uncle in the USSR and they wouldn’t even place the call...fascists
The commies would have been listening in. Your uncle might have Spent Xmas in Siberia.
It's quite pleasing to see a piece like this. The vast majority of comments underneath UA-cam's 'vintage content' are written by people who praise the past and piss on the present. You'd have to be cuckoo bananas to do that here. The price of international calls back then was extortionate and obscene. Not just that, the lines were so bad that the people you called might as well have been on Mars.
coz it cost an extortionate amount of money to create those circuits to connect with. yes i remember making a call to Africa in the mid 80's and the echo was terrible.. had to hold the listening part away from my ear as i spoke it was so distracting
International phone calls subsidized the rest of telecom. Land line rental was so cheap back then and public telephone boxes were everywhere. Not bad for making 1 or 2 international calls a year.
Wow sensational footage thanku...xxx
Love the way they casually gloss over the "power dispute". My uncle worked for SEQuEB at the time. It was a HUGE deal
The "huge deal" occurred in 1985.
@@NxDoyle it may not have been a huge deal for the public until 1985 but the disputes for the electricity workers was huge at the time
privatisation was unlawful. a referendum should have been held. same with the sale of telstra. we did have a referndum in 1988 and the people said NO to councils. All local councils are unlawful. in breach of the constitution. BCC is nothing short of a foreign criminal organisation run by the NWO.
*SEQEB. There was never a u in the abbreviation.
"....as they bought a carton XXXX Gold tinnies...."
No XXXX Gold back then.
Nurses still wore caps.
Nurses looked like nurses, not like they just got out of bed. Back in the days when you could go to hospital and know who was who
@@bert23337 Exactly. It's was weird when Doctors and Nurses started having to wear the same generic scrubs in hospitals.
And you called out "sister" and knew what you meant.
Telecom/Telstra still ripping off the punters even back in 1979. Nothing's changed!
Telecom were bastards with their charging. But they were totally Federal Government then and they returned decent money to Federal Government coffers. Better a Government cashed than one totally shot financially.
used to work in the Telephone exchange :) started there in 1980 :) saw a few of those used to work with
Wendy J perdon my ignorance but how does that work?
OMG SAW MY BROTHER GETTING ON A PLANE TO Rhodesia with the army!
RIP Rhodesia
Didn't even know we sent troops there, Typical Fraser. Him and others pressured Maggie to make Smithy give It up. That worked out well that black Hitler stuffed up the country. Now they have cholera, not only third World that's dark ages.
Classic. XD
I fly FPV with my EasyStar I and this is my preferred (meaning 99 out of 100 flights, lol) method of takeoff. I run a very powerful motor and prop combo (1700kv motor and APC 8x4E, ~350W wide open) but she's a fairly heavy girl so some power really helps on takeoff. Since I do both belly skid takeoffs and landings, I keep the underside of the plane layered 2x with heavy duty Scotch packing tape. When the outermost layer begins to fray, I peel it off and replace it with fresh. Packing tape not only protects against wear and tear, it also greatly reduces friction, making such takeoffs much easier than with bare foam. It also vastly increases crash durability.
first time i spent over an hour in a pine tree with tight branches, second time i was lucky and able to reach with a ladder. third time this happend it was at the camp wich was good but it had to park itself in the tallest popular around. had a few beers considering just leaving it there till the weather took care of it even at the expense of the electronics. well sitting there drinking and looking at igot me inspired ,rigged up a fishing rod- set it in free spool, tied the line to 5/8" nut and used my sling shot to set the line over the plane, just had to pull it down. i even caught it. this is now part of my flight (crash) gear. if you run the nut/line through the "y" of the sling shot you can quickly hit the brakes with your hand when you get on target. damn i love beer !
Hahaha!
