Had to share this. A (Hillman owning) mate of mine is a tyre rep working in Southern Queensland, on the road a lot. A few weeks ago he was stopped by police near St George in his company car. They suspected he had been going a bit quick, but he spotted them first and had backed off. Anyway they asked him to get out of the car and as one of them talked to him he saw the other checking his GPS navigation. Then he got chatted about the 135 km/h maximum speed reading on it. So when he flew to Canberra shortly afterwards he brought his GPS and got a maximum speed reading of 720 km/h on while in the plane. Now he can't wait to get back out to St George.....
Cheers, Vic

He needs to rent some time in an ex-Soviet MiG!
