Captain Kramer Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Hello Aviators, My name is Shane and I live at Eton and absolutely love recreational flying and the movement in general. I was a Helicopter Mechanic in the Navy for 15 years but have moved back home to Mackay to start it fresh. I don't have many hours but near the end of a long restoration of a Nostalgair N-3 Pup and currently looking for a place to keep it out of the weather and to do a lot of flying in the coming months. I am looking forward to catching with as many of you guys as possible and talk about all things that fly. Kind regards Shane 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The N-3 Pup looks great - exactly the sort of fun little machine that recreational flying is all about IMO. Keep us posted on your progress - look forward to hearing about its completion. Cheers, Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueadventures Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Hi Shane Welcome. Re hangar give Mr Mal a message. Recently he offered me a space at Palmyra, it could still be available. He is presently in the start of the building stage. I have not actually met him in person yet and not sure where he is at with the hangar. Other than that I don't know of any others spot available at present. Cheers Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pup looks good mate, what motor is it? Hey Hongie, my N-3 Pup is powered by a Global (1/2 VW) 35 Hp engine she goes alright but will have my fingers crossed when it comes time to weight it. I have added weight and I have lost weight so hopefully that will cancel everything out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
