    Na for the most part Airbus is imperial. Keeps a standard and cost of tooling down. Airbus does have some stupid little metric bits here and there when you least expect it.

    The Concorde was metric for the French parts and imperial for the English parts and they joined metric to imperial, unbelievable bit of engineering

    Mixing can be expensive though! CNN - Metric mishap caused loss of NASA orbiter - September 30, 1999

    That is because you are two metres tall. I am five foot nine inches and am happy with that.

    BRADS when I have technical issues I do one of two things. Turn it off and then back on again and if that doesn't fix it then hand it to my daughter. That I am afraid is the sum total of my ability to help. My daughter is out at dance so she is no bloody use to you. Ha ha ha ha

    Cool thread Neckshot, sorry I have no videos of gongs getting a workout.
    I have 11 gongs on the hill all shot from one ridge, we just have two turn around two shoot the other way,
    they range from 100 yards two 1400 yards when we want to go elr we drive up the other end and the gongs are 1850 and 2200
    Have 2 6inch gongs, 3 10 inch gongs, 3 15 inch gongs and 3 30 inch gongs.
    Have recently added smaller gongs next two bigger ones at the same ranges two mix things up a bit
    6 of the gongs are 20mm biz a bit over the top, the only thing two leave the slightest dent was a hot rod 375.
    Have 4 of Neckshots hardox plates which are awesome and should of just got them from the start.
    One of Shootms mild steel gongs which despite being smashed from everything from 22 two 50 cal is still going strong.
    My hanging technique is rather simple just two warratahs and some no 8 wire only lost one warratah shot down by an unnamed forum member
    730 -1060 gongs
    Name: gong 2.JPG Views: 557 Size: 596.9 KB
    looking the other way 330-1400
    Name: gong 1.jpg Views: 581 Size: 126.3 KB
    15 inch biz plate mid range (500-800)
    Name: gong 3.JPG Views: 584 Size: 597.7 KB
    Shootms mild steel gong, its had a hard life
    Name: gong 5.jpg Views: 611 Size: 154.0 KB
    730 yard 30 inch and 6 inch gong, big gong is awesome for validating speeds, wind work and newbies
    Name: gong 4.jpg Views: 547 Size: 158.6 KB

    I should add that I'm not as mad keen on shooting steel as I was a year or two ago, kind of been there done that got the tee shirt attitude at the moment still do a bit of practice but would rather be fulling the freezer.
    Get a heap of enjoyment watching/helping others shoot further that they have before
    I'm sure when I have a few $ in the bank @KiwiGreg will make me a another lr steel gun
