Guest Howard Hughes Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 With the winds that have been around I would say driving would be more pleasurable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flightygirl Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Hey Andrew, we are not likely to fly until sunday... but are thinking now we might try for saturday but havent organised accomodation, so chances are it will just be a very early fly in on sunday morning. keep an eye out for the savvy if you're about.

Ultralights Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 yep, it was a great weekend, arrived mid afternoon saturday, stayed at a brilliant and very cheap B&B across the road from the airport, and met heaps of cool people! sadly we had to depart at about 11 on sunday to get the rest of our tour in, as can be seen in the pic above, our flight over the ski fields was awesome! weather was perfect.. climbout looks steep in that pic Dodo, but that was 65 kts, and 800 ft/min. almost a cruise climb! more pics to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flying dog Posted August 30, 2010 Author Share Posted August 30, 2010 Wow, well, you both beat me for posting. I guess being local no one could beat dodo. Now I just have to work out "who you are". ;) I am glad Flightygirl and Ultralights enjoyed their trip there and their subsaequent fly over the snow. It does look like good cover this year. But they always say that. Anyway, I got home today too. Now going to process the piccies/movies I took. Bye for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PapaFox Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 We only managed to get there for the Sunday arvo, but was certainly a good excuse to get a bit of air below the wheels. Definately much better weather than last year though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
