The Christmas Eve fax!
A few minutes to go, but assuming nothing happens, I'll be gracious enough to wish everyone, friends and enemies, a great Christmas.
Eat drink and be merry you bastards.

Santa | Notice issued to pilots
Hope the jolly fat man stays clear of Bankstown then, lest there be a FOI waiting there looking to ping him for scratched paint on the sleigh 
Its no secret that Santa is Airservices top priority on Christmas Eve! Despite his magical sleigh and team of reindeer, Santa only has a limited time to deliver his valuable cargo (toys for all you boys and girls) and needs Airservices help.

CactusJack? Any misinformed rants?
Your little declining airline perhaps? Maybe a comment about your 30 year old Dashies? Your BIG plans to hit the RPT market big time?
Oh dear, so many laughs, so little time
But regardless, Merry Xmas! ( now can you please go and polish the Bentley, there's a good chap
)
Lovely sentiment Frank
Merry Christmas to you too... and all prooners.

Thanks to all
I hope you and your families all have a great Xmas. With a bit of luck you won't be working tomorrow. (For once in many years I'm not). That makes Mrs. TID happy. And we all know how important it is to keep the leader of the opposition happy 
Thank you one and all for your contributions over the past year, and let's hope 2014 is rewarding and prosperous for all of us
Regards from TID.

As I nearly choke on a hot mince pie.
Oh (ho ho ) it's been a difficult year. What with sponsorship depending on censorship; (gross) across the board, humourless restrictions on freedom of expression and the sense of humour police having Christmas at home for once; (be still my overactive sympathy glands). Despite all this, there were plans to bring you all an extravaganza of Willyleaks stories to put in your Christmas stocking; alas, all shelf-ware now, dumped in the tidy bin of outrageous fortune.
There was, in no particular order:-
The tale of the CDP Santa grounded. Apparently he was alleged to be unable to define exactly what colour Rudolph's red nose was. This extends into a human factors interest side bar, where OH&S tried to stop production at the North Pole Toy Factory (NPTF). They found the CDP elves were also unable to read the RED/ GREEN labels on the paint tins. Not to worry, a Greens Senate committee decided that any colour toys in this war ravaged world would be welcome.
The adventure of the migrating pot plants.
A rather amusing, revamped version of the 12 days of Christmas.
The important inclusion of the month of March into the new, reformed Julian calendar.
But most missed will be the tall tale of the Gobbledock and his return to the houseboat from Montreal on board the new, Santa Composite Sled (SCS Mark II) rumoured to have all glass, new age automatics; and, a nice little foot-warmer.
Anyway, must not to labour the blunt end of a pointed argument Cheers you lot, it's been great fun, so grab, in no particular order, a squeeze, a pension, a cigar and a bottle of YOUR favourite attitude adjuster and try (now that your home) to enjoy the day; and DO NOT complain about aircraft noise tomorrow, some have a living to earn and like to make sure the 'young' ones get to stay home with their younger children. Me, (shucks) I just love aircraft noise. Bring it on.
You know who you are: so Merry Christmas, one and (nearly) all.

Just enjoyed a Xmas Eve sunset on Coolum beach with some good friends, some beers, some fresh prawns and oysters, bickies and cheese, and a romp in the surf with the pooches. Can't beat this place for a wonderful climate.
Ho ho ho, we wish you a merry Xmas and a carton of beer.

Santa's sleigh on short finals
Santa's sleigh currently listed on the North Pole AOC. TICK
Santa's sleigh compliant with the relevant regulatory parts. TICK
Santa's sleigh free of NCN's. TICK
Santa's sleigh running on time with no TIBA issues. TICK
Santa's sack (trough) full of goodies for all the good kiddies and even the naughty Inspectors. TICK
Santa had adequate rest and sharing command duties with Gobbledock. TICK
It's been a year of tendentious blogging, robust discussions, piss takes, serious issues and the odd shanty. But all aside have a jolly good Xmas everybody, looking forward to playing again in the new year. Indeed, safe skies for all
It would appear that all systems are go........

Boxing day...beer, balls (Kookaburrax2), boats (sorry yachts) & no bald bullies!
CJ:
Well it seems that Santa has passed through our neck of the woods unscathed and not locked up by the FF SS minions...
Come to think of it there wasn't much chance of that as FF are all on hols and Santa's AOC is classified as Airwork at best...
However I'd be a bit worried
if I were Santa because the rumour is that there is various incriminating poohtube vids showing extreme low level manoeuvres and one or two u/s items that need to be checked off the FAA approved MEL list:
We all know how FF love their cases with circumstantial evidence, various doctored poohtube vids, hearsay witness statements bs..bs..etc..etc..
guaranteed to totally bamboozle an AAT Preso or two!!
Hmm..
...maybe it is a positive sign that Grinch Herr Skull has decided this year not to instigate the FF SS Xmas SCN 16:59 fax...or maybe not??
Speaking of Grinches and in the spirit of Xmas, perhaps Grinch Joyce could learn from this Airline promo vid, & guaranteed to warm the hearts and provide a smile in the lead up to the New Year...:

Hmm..not long till the start of the Boxing day test...yeehah!
