I am now totally confused. I fly a 50+ tonne machine and a one donk lightweight. Should I average them out and seek a 26 tonne forum?
Otherwise you'll just confuse the hell out of us. Especially as you should not only average out the weight, but also the engines and other stuff. "If I have one-and-a-half engine on average, do I need a SEP or MEP rating?" "Can I log P2 if my type of aircraft requires one-and-a-half pilot as crew?"

Right, I think I've collected the necessary, although it's going to be hard to part with my old oily rag. I do hope you give it a good home!
Also, will a fuel strainer with JetA1 in it do? It was the only one I could steal out of the oil store at short notice. I've got a collection of them somewhere, fecked if I know where though!
Can I add that anyone who has ever worn one of those green romper suits to fly a 152, 172, PA28 etc. should receive a lifetime ban for pretentiousness?
And anyone who uses ridiculously long words like pretentiousness should also receive a lifetime ban for being pretentious.
Seeya, I'm off to sneak in with the big boys, see if they have any fuel strainers for me to steal!

I thought this was the private forum, the GA forum is two up (or is it down) in the list? So Moderators, could you move it please ![Evil](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/evil.gif)
So going through the list:
Oily rag
- the passenger in the front row has borrowed mine
Fuel drain tester (used)
- Yep, got one of those in each machine
Reciept for an aviation headset below 500USD(Sorry BOSE X users)
- Yep, Bose headsets proven to be inadequate in the machines I fly
A map
- Of course. It moves too, from the storage to my knee and back again
E6B flight computer
- never depart without it
Current CLASS 3 medical
- Ah well, bit of a career stopper that one, but I can exercise privillages of a class 1
A letter of introduction displaying no hedonistic tendencies
- My line trainer could do that for me - not allowed on fleet with hedonistic tendencies!
Sorry for raiding the thread and forum - I'll go back to Rotorheads where a private pilot never dares post.

Unfortunately, mine cost about £6000 from Grabair. On the bright side, it did come with a free 45 hours of PPL training with a nice man called Tim.
Instead of rag will an old sheet of kitchen roll do , well used for activities various. Ah - rephrase - well used for wiping mud of underside, flies off screen and oil from dipstick.
Can I also suggest inclusion of a used and crumpled wax-paper funnel be included in the pre-requisites for membership?
