Cosmick Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Up or back, bit of a dog leg but Watts is having a Breaky. Weather at this stage looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff13 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Up or back, bit of a dog leg but Watts is having a Breaky. Weather at this stage looks good. I thought about that, early breaky at Watts then lunch at Clifton :) A bloke just needs somewhere to stop for afternoon smoko on the way home.

LOL Hey, is anyone good to go to this breaky at Watts Bridge? because that sounds like a good plan. Rumour has it (ERSA), that there is an AVGAS bowser at Watts Bridge, is that right?

Nightmare Posted March 7, 2017 Author Share Posted March 7, 2017 Well Geoff, looks like I'll see you there for breaky, weather permitting of course. Warwick was the other other option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WayneL Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 A few photos from the flyin today. Some forum members will find photos of their aircraft here, hope everyone enjoyed the day. My thanks to Trevor Bange and fellow club members for the for all the work they put in to make the flyin possible. Sorry I missed meeting some fellow forum members to put a face to the forum username.... too busy taking the photos and your were not near your aircraft when I did get around the parked aircraft. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes departing aircraft parade started early I thought, maybe because of the hint of possible storms later in the day? Wayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cscotthendry Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 A good turnout at Clifton again. Thanks to Trevor and the gang for the great brekky. My apologies to the couple whose two young sons (quite cutely) asked my wife if they could touch our plane. She allowed them to touch it, but if I had known, I would have put them in the seats so that they could get a picture or two. If you're reading this post, next time, come and ask again and we will gladly let them sit inside. My wife was quite taken with their politeness. And to all those who came and inquired about the Legend, it was great to talk to you. We really enjoy the interest people have in our baby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Scott, I turned up a little late, so I didn't get to say gidday. Maybe next time. I agree, what a great event, this was my first fly-in, that I arrived in by plane.

WayneL Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Lucky to get the good weather on the weekend, it has not been great weather since. Just had a early morning storm that dumped 45mm here at Oakey. Wayne. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I well remember my first fly in and it wasn't nearly as busy as Clifton, so good for you managing in the traffic. I found my first one terrifying. It was the Gatton brekky fly in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted March 14, 2017 Author Share Posted March 14, 2017 I did my first 10 hours of my flight training at Redcliffe, which is quite busy, so traffic for me doesn't phase me as much as it would others, I guess. Mind you, as I arrived later, there wasn't too much traffic in the circuit at Clifton. I had more traffic when I flew into Watts Bridge that morning to top off the tank and had some breakie. I'm planning to go to this years Gatton Fly-in Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
