Arrival

[Douglas]

G'day all,

I spent some time as a farm labourer's assistant(dad seemed to labour for the bank)so I milked cows more than 10 years therefore should qualify for a PH'd in bovine lactation,dad sold the farm so I tried aviation for 35 years till forced retirement.My wife has a property in the Granite Belt in Queensland Australia which we operate on a soft chemical basis.I am involved with a Landcare Organic group and I talk/demonstrate on biodynamics/microbial brewing/divining/charcoal-dark earth/radionics/broadcast towers/holistic management and practical land use,maybe I do not understand nature but I know it kicks if you do the wrong thing and being a "hasbeen" at least I can share my experiences/observations.

Regards,

Douglas.

Welcome to Hypography! Aviation sounds like an interesting move from dairy products... :confused:

G'day Tormad,

Aviation is an industry of choice in theory requires no education just sense of self preservation,situational awareness and a big hip pocket,like agriculture you are working within the confines of nature,push the boundaries and you maybe permanently farming in a marble orchard.

Aviation offers you the ability to meet people you would normally not have access to and be paid to see the world,on several occasions at night I have sat/camped around a campfire with geologist,archaeologist,village chiefs and other interesting people and this starts to put the richness into life and these people are also interested in you.

Night freight brings you in contact with those who work on the other side on the human clock both on the ground and in the air and the view outside the cockpit window is something to be shared.The little extras I picked up in this industry plus other study/research allows me to offer what I refer to as a "soft chemical" approach to agriculture for others to better utilise what nature offers for almost free.(there is no such thing as a free lunch)So I am interested in the views expressed in this forum.

Must go for now,

Regards,

Douglas.

Welcome Douglas.

I love the definition of complexity.

Aussies are poised to take over this forum . (Your secret orders will arrive anomalously) :)

I guess you are interested in Terra preta

Anything else?
