Re: Quiz - Wed 16th March


Aquaculture, also known as aquafarming, is the farming of aquatic organisms such as fish, crustaceans, molluscs and aquatic plants. Aquaculture involves cultivating freshwater and saltwater populations under controlled conditions, and can be contrasted with commercial fishing, which is the harvesting of wild fish. Mariculture refers to aquaculture practised in marine environments.

Re: Quiz - Wed 16th March


DM is closest - but way off.

the world speed record for a helicopter is 249.10 mph (400.80 km/h). This record was set in August 1986, with a Westland Lynx from the United Kingdom flying over a 15 km course, piloted by John Egginton.

So well done DM.

Scores coming up

What a tie-break! We have Chinooks flying over us nearly every day and they are quite slow and very very noisy!
