Did you do it over the weekend? Who with? Tell us about it!

[Stoney]

I did it with my wife today, and we both enjoyed it!

 

We started at dawn and didn't finish until dusk, and met some wonderful people while we were doing it.

 

We flew from Murray Bridge to Gawler for breakfast, Loxton for morning tea and on to Mildura for lunch, then back to Murray Bridge with touch and goes at Renmark and Truro Flats Airpark. A total of 450 NM and another 5.4 flying hours logged.

 

This was a ded reckoning NavEx with the great people from Aeroscene flying group. It was a great excuse to brush up on Nav skills, meet up with some people we had met before, and to meet some new friends.

 

This to me is one of the best things about recreational flying.

 

I am looking forward to getting it up again soon.

Just your typical weekend;

 

An hour banging circuits with a student in the Foxbat

 

(Landing 30 grass YTRE, my place on the right of the strip)

 

 

Steer my resident builder in the right direction with her project.

 

(she's nearly finished her second wing, and about to start the second flaperon)

 

 

Jump back in the 'Bat and fly over to a mates place and spend an hour or so assisting the re-assembly of his recently purchased, fully restored Drifter.

 

(virtually brand new!)

 

 

Fly back home and pull a few more bits off the two stroke Lightwing that I'm trying to finish an engine change on

 

 

Knock off for the day and walk back to the house for tea, and read the latest at Recreational Flying....
