In early September 2019 the first shipments of the long awaited Tesla Model 3 autonomous electric vehicle began arriving in Australia.
All Tesla cars come standard with auto pilot, full self-driving capability and driver assistance features such as emergency braking, collision warning and blind-spot monitoring.
With the next software update, the cars will recognise and respond on autopilot to speed signs, traffic lights and stop signs. A number of other autonomous features will also be available by the end of 2019.
This white Tesla 3 Performance, pictured above is my sons car. He picked it up in Sydney on September 28 2019. Apparently if he had not been there at the pre-arranged time the car would have been allocated to someone else and he would have gone back on the waiting list.
Today Boxing Day 2019 I had my first opportunity to drive this amazing vehicle. Apart from being whisper quiet the technology is unbelievable and the acceleration from 0 to 100km hour in 3.4 seconds is breathtaking.
The standard car with various options he had ordered was unavailable on the day so Tesla upgraded him free of charge to a Performance Long Range vehicle. His car had been ordered well over 3 years previous to the delivery and his great patience has been rewarded with an amazingly sleek and seriously impressive, and in the end, upgraded vehicle.
The stylishly sleek low profile Standard Tesla Model 3 has a battery range of 460km (real life more like 350km), a top speed of 225kph and at 5.6 seconds 0 to 100km it has scary acceleration that throws you back hard against the seat.
The Standard Model 3 will retail for Au$67,900.
There are two other models being made available in Australia.
Long Range Standard (620km -233kph-4.6 seconds) (Au$85,900)
Performance (560km - 233kph-3.4 seconds) (Au$92,900)
When one gets into the car the first thing you notice, apart from the comfort of the seats and the sleek tinted glass roof, is the total simplicity of the dash. There is no instrumentation on the dashboard, just a large computer screen which literally does everything. It allows you to conveniently update the cars autonomous and standard driving mode software, make phone calls, use maps and play music. I'm not sure yet but its probably set up for voice command also.
Charging is carried out at Tesla's rapidly expanding network of Australian charging stations or at home through an adapted power point.
Recently I saw that the Tesla Model 3 has become the top selling car in the Netherlands.
It will be interesting to see how rapid its adoption will be in Australia given Australian's record as a world leader in transitioning to new technologies.
It will not be a surprise if the take-up is quite fast, despite our current conservative federal government's best efforts to dampen down all enthusiasm for anything not powered by fossil fuels.
The Tesla Version 10 Update was released on 26th September 2019

VMA 225 Marines Carry AFCS ( Autopilot ) Tester Box To Troubleshoot Autopilot on A4C Skyhawk at Chu Lai, Viet Nam: Summer 1965. ( L ) Duwayne Fowler ( wearing those Mickey Mouse Ears ) and Bill Mills from North Carolina are carrying the Tester.
No autopilot, so it was hand flying all the way during the 20 hour transcon. Yeah, I know. Tough life.
The C182 G1000 has a fully integrated flight director and autopilot with lateral and vertical navigation modes. It has all the functions that you would find in a modern jet airliner, like:
* Lateral navigation: Heading, VOR/LOC/BC navigation or flight plan RNAV lateral navigation
* Vertical navigation: Maintain altitude, level change maintaining IAS, vertical speed, ILS glidepath or following of the vertical path in the RNAV flight plan.
There is even a go around (GA) button to change the FD mode. Only the autothrottle is missing.
Nothing to do with the crappy autopilot system found in the 172 G1000, which is not integrated in the Garmin system.
PS: Actually this display is the MFD with all the PFD info in the emergency reversionary mode, but they are indistinguishable with this function activated.
Yesterday:
I suddenly had the desire to sketch the unattractive back lane view I have from where I park my car when I visit the gym. I think this had to do with the fact that my car was not in the boiling sun(like it normally is) so it was quite pleasant to sit in my car with the window down.
I knew I had put my sketchbook and brushes in my bag…and my paints? No, it seems that I omitted my paint tin. BUT I did have some watercolour pencils (WCPs)- not the full set I normally carry... but enough! I really wanted to move pigment and water around the page so I was determined to see what WCPs could do to satisfy my urge! I do like WCPs and I especially like using them in association with watercolour paint. On their own, I have often been a little disappointed mainly due to their opacity and the fact that they keep lifting and a lot of the intensity of the pigment is lost if you put too much water on the page.
You can see on the left side of this sketch my experiments with fully loading the page with WCP and then trying to move that pigment around. I am not really happy with the result (a bit murky, and flat) However, I find what I was doing in the middle and right of the sketch more interesting…. It was a lot of fun and as always when I try something new, my brain is ticking with ideas for stuff to try next time!!!
I completely missed my turn on the way home (what is wrong with me… my auto pilot went on a break!?) so I ended up at an intersection that you have to wait for a long time… and well…. I sneaked a sketch! I have also decided to make myself an emergency paint kit (some old half used pans and a little container that I used to have in the office) so as least I always have some paint in the car now!

Woensdag 8 juni 2005
Vorige vrijdag hebben we afscheid genomen van ons liefste zoontje Jeroen. Velen van jullie waren aanwezig om hem nog een laatste keer bij hem te zijn en hem te groeten. Anderen zijn nog even een moment bij hem geweest de dagen ervoor. Daarvoor willen wij jullie in naam van Jeroen graag bedanken. Ook de offergang ten voordele van het Kinderkankerfonds van het UZ Gent was als een wonderbaarlijke vermenigvuldiging. Wij zijn zaterdag met de urne van Jeroen naar huis gekeerd, waar ze al een speciaal plaatsje heeft gekregen met een kaarsje erbij. Zo kunnen we altijd een beetje samen blijven. De komende weken willen we thuis tot rust komen, en stilletjesaan de draad der dingen weer oppakken. En Jeroens spulletjes, kleertjes en speelgoedjes opruimen. Sommige dingen, die ons mooie herinneringen bezorgden, willen we bijhouden terwijl we andere zullen weggeven. Bij voorbeeld aan 3K6, waar ze immers altijd speelgoed kunnen gebruiken voor de andere zieke kinderen. We denken ook af en toe een berichtje in Jeroens dagboekje te blijven bijvullen. Over hoe het met ons gaat, met Ceres en Rieneke, met de andere kindjes die Jeroen kende. En Jeroen zelf, die kijkt nu van ergens boven misschien glimlachend toe.
Jeroen
Je hebt gestreden als een leeuw, zo'n dapper ventje dat ze zeiden
door de chemo, medicijnen, heb je heel wat moeten lijden
Met levenbrengend bloed kreeg jij op 3K6 de beste zorgen
Wij hoopten, wensten allemaal voor jou een nieuwe mooie morgen
Remissie en de BMT en zelfs ook de GVL
al die ogen van de naald doorspartelde je wonderwel
Helaas bleken adeno en GVH te veel te zijn
infecties kwamen daar nog bij, 't oog van de naald bleek nu te klein
Met veel moed en dapperheid vocht je d'helft van je leven
honderdzeven dagen later heeft je lichaam 't opgegeven
O wat kon je schaterlachen, met perfecte tandjes wit
je blonde haartjes, j'oogjes blauw, tien vingers, teentjes in 't gelid
Ook kon je koppig zijn en roepen, waarbij je fel je stem verhief
om dan stil en zoetjes fluist'rend, te zeggen "mama 'k vind jou lief"
We wilden lentebloesems ruiken, 's zomers horen 't geruis der bomen
nog kleur'ge herfstblaadjes rapen, tesaam van wintervlokken dromen
Zucht! 't leven was je niet degund in deze wereld bij ons hier
je moest uiteindelijk oversteken naar d'andere kant van de rivier
Nu bij Lieze Lukas Brent en al die andere Engeltjes kleintjes
kijk je al naar DVD's en speelt met autootjes en treintjes
In de hemel zijn ook Lala Nemo Shrek en brother Beer,
Pardoes en insteekmozaïekjes, en van alles nog veel meer
Olijfjes chipjes Port Salut, je at het allemaal zo graag
alles wat je hartje mag heb je in overvloed vandaag
Ons engeltje op een wolkje boven, let j'een beetje op je zusjes?
zij blijven altijd aan je denken en zenden jou hun duizend kusjes
Ons huisje zal wat stiller worden, maar je beeld en stem beklijven
alhoewel verweesd, bedroefd, zullen wij met vijven blijven
Soms zullen we in de stille nacht een klein en fonk'lend sterretje zien
dat ben dan jij die ons vertelt: kijk eens heb je mij gezien?
Ga nu maar Jeroentje lief, in onze harten blijf je leven
ooit dan zien w'elkander weer, in een ander mooier Leven
Mama & Papa, Ceres en Rieneke
Omdat velen het verhaal van Jeroen tijdens de rouwplechtigheid graag nog eens willen lezen:
"Familie, vrienden, beste allemaal,
Lieve Jeroen,
Toen je op 5 oktober 2001 werd geboren, waren we in de wolken. Een zoontje, en een broertje voor Ceres. Alles ging goed zoals het hoorde. Een stoere kerel. Op 8 maand stond je al op je beentjes. En op de creche hing je samen met je vriendje Paulus de grote jongen uit.
En toen werd je 2 jaar geleden ziek. Het leek eerst onschuldig, een bloedonderzoekje, oef zeker geen leukemie. Maar dan toch. Een schok, onze zorgeloze wereld stortte in. Wat hadden wij verkeerd gedaan? Geen tijd om na te denken, de chemobehandelingen begonnen meteen. Na 5 weken ziekenhuis mocht je met het paasweekend naar huis. Dan een borstcatheter en moeilijke zomermaanden. 3K6 werd onze tweede thuis. Vanaf eind 2003 waren we dan weer meer thuis. Je mocht opnieuw gewoon in bad samen met Ceres en met Rieneke, die ondertussen geboren was. Je kon weer naar de juffen Marjan en Ariette, mee op vakantie naar Frankrijk, en een weekje naar Villa Pardoes in de Efteling. Een heerlijke, geweldige tijd vol plezier. Bij je 3de verjaardag dachten we nog dat je spoedig helemaal genezen zou zijn.
Maar amper 1 maand later waren er enkele verdachte cellen. Vertwijfeld gingen we nog een weekje naar Spanje, waar jij met ons nog van alle kleine momenten genoot. Dan volgde weer zware chemotherapie. Die hielp wel maar niet genoeg, een beenmergtransplantatie was de enige redding. In Amerika vond men een geschikte, bijna ideale donor. Weer hoop. Alleen waren die stoute cellen intussen heel agressief geworden. Op 9 februari, dag op dag 3 jaar nadat je was gedoopt, zou je nieuwe leventje beginnen. Op geen maand tijd was je al uit de isolatiekamer, en met Paasdag mocht je naar huis. Je lachte, speelde en had energie genoeg. Je herstelde.
Het zou de laatste keer zijn. Dezelfde kankercellen kwamen een 3de maal terug. Je nieuwe beenmerg vocht ertegen wat het kon, maar tastte daarmee ook onherstelbaar je eigen orgaantjes aan. Enkele anders onschuldige virussen deden dat ook. Toch vocht je terug en verbeterde een beetje. We hoopten dat de tijd in jouw voordeel zou spelen. Nog 1 keer met jou buiten naar de passerende auto's kijken. Maar toen was je lichaam moe en op van de strijd. Je sloot je oogjes. Voorgoed, deze keer. Je hartje was heel sterk, maar de rest was ongeneeslijk ziek geworden. We lieten je gaan terwijl we jou in onze armen hielden. Achteraf stilte, rust, leegte. We hebben allemaal gedaan wat we konden, tevergeefs. We hadden nog zoveel dromen voor jou, nog zoveel dingen die we samen wilden doen. Misschien zou je autopiloot geworden zijn, of verpleger of ingenieur of iets helemaal anders. Of dokter om zieke kindjes te genezen. Nu word je beschermengeltje voor ons.
We zijn nu ongewild van onze plicht ontslagen, maar we hebben er een andere gekregen. We zullen jou niet vergeten. Hoe zouden we dat ook kunnen met al onze herinneringen samen? We zullen je lach, je energie, je knuffels missen. Maar je blijft in onze harten en in ons gezinnetje. Waar nu ook een beetje rust kan komen.
Natasja en ik danken jullie in naam van Jeroen voor jullie aanwezigheid."
