eastmeg2 Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Sounds like a Trike and happily it sounds as though the pilot escaped injury. Anyone got any further info? http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,23238730-29277,00.html Rgds, Glen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimecho1 Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 looks like either an amphibian or another type of float-trike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Crezzi Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Looks like a Ramphos http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=381396 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimecho1 Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 It does indeed. A ducking for the pilot and and a bit of an oil-slick. The news media will lose interest now and go back to baiting Corey Worthington. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazy diamond Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 I've noticed a Ramphos in the hangar at Maitland, not from up there is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ozzie Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 weren't these guys in the news a few weeks ago when the same thing happened in Rose Bay in Sydney Harbour. Also the photo shows that the wheels are down i rather liked the comment by a local commercial operator saying that this was as close to a commercial aircraft as 'qantas is to a sparrow landing in your backyard' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Crezzi Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 IIRC the Rose Bay incident was an Airborne XT so probably not the same guy unless he's got deep pockets (no pun intended) Cheers John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
