Cosmick Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 February 2012 Was pretty excited about a nice fly and breakie today, checked the forecast on Elders yesterday "Sunny" yahoo - looking good. Checked area 40 early - showers, off the ground after 7am, climbed out 12 on initials at YCAB and a frown came over my face as I saw the showers over Moreton Bay. Thought mmm... lets have a look. Ducked and weaved to Tangalooma than through some light showers and made inbound call for YDUN over Kooringal. Got to Nth Straddie and the Weather looked very heavy, tracked over to Pt Lookout looked south and saw plenty more coming. Called up YDUN advised turning Back and headed up the east coast of Moreton Island in the sunlight than ducked and weaved a bit over Moreton Bay to the centre of Bribie. Well at least I got further than last time I tried, might have to wait till Autumn or Winter for a good run at it............ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballpoint 246niner Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Hey Mike, yes VMC was a little hard to find. Dave and I put the Sav down at Tangalooma for 40 mins, observing the addage "better to be down- wishing you were up there", and we waited for better conditions despite the lure of the breakfast being devoured by the more "adventurous non IMC rated pilots! We got there after 9 and enjoyed a 'lighter breakfast and some excellent socialising as usual. The new calendar and breakfast book has been published and was on view to purchase and is a great collection of photos from the last 12 mths. REMINDER: Weather forecasts are just horoscopes with lines and numbers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
