Guest Fred Bear Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Oh well sorry we missed you guys. Sorry I did not reply last night. Ended up going to bed. Did you get out there today? There's always next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Didn't make it up to The Oaks today either, weather was similar to yesterday with thick fog then low cloud until about 13.30. Got into the air and headed up to Goulburn for some airwork, a bit of playing around with the video camera, some circuits at Goulburn then headed back home. Had to pack up early despite perfect weather this afternoon (CAVOK, nil wind) as my folks are in town and should probably be spending some time with them instead of in the air :). Disperse - I can thoroughly recommend Command Flight Planner, of all those on the market I found it to be the best all round planner and is good for very basic planning through to IFR. Cheers, Matt.

Guest Fred Bear Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 As long as you enjoyed it Matt. That's the main thing mate. See you next time you are up. We won't be at The Oaks next weekend. Going to Bathurst. Will be the weekend after (weather permitting). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Fred Bear Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Hopefully ok for you to get home tomorrow Ian. I don't know what the Bureau is doing lately with their forecasts but I think it's time they lifted their game a little. Perhaps they have the work experience guy looking out the window and creating the forecasts by sight at the last minute... Forecast for Saturday The chance of a shower, particularly near the coast during the morning. Sunny periods. Early fog patches in the west. Light winds tending northeasterly. Precis: Chance shower. City: Min: 12 Max: 19 Parramatta: Min: 9 Max: 20 Terrey Hills: Min: 11 Max: 18 Penrith: Min: 8 Max: 20 Liverpool: Min: 7 Max: 20 Richmond: Min: 7 Max: 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
