  1. ha ha same hear mad dog :D ha ha i have about 100 possible ideas most of them kit aircraft for the low cost :D ha ha it really is a never ending search :D
  2. wow bush ha ha if you dont mind me asking how did you fund all of that?? i mean my family has a fair bit of money but i dont think even we could affor that? :thumb_up:
  3. ha ha cheers mad dog :D apreciated mate. i just wasnt sure if that website was the Austrlaian dealers.
  4. hey all just wondering if there is an australian dealer for the ninja skyranger in austrlaia and if there is would they have a web sight or email address? im just curious :D cheers all CK
  5. ha ha mine started with a good mate of mine who has a passion for aviation :D he want to be a comercial pilot, then i met another know mate called shaun ha ha he owns a drifter and talking to him led me to the australian air force cadets peerce bullsbrook WA (701SQN) that was were it started i went for my first flight in a cessna 172 and was inspired to be able to fly myself :D i talked to every company at jandacot and all the PPL companies couldnt do any better the 10K (to ,much for a young bording school student) ha ha upon reading my brothers collections of RA-Aus magazines i came accross the ad for this forum and then the ad for Glenn at Sporting Aviation academy im starting my training when i can get out to wildcatchem :D but i think my true inspiration comes from eagles!! ha ha not incredible interesting story but its mine :D :Norton:
  6. a cheapo savvana would be exactly what i would be chasing :D haha na the idea was to lern how to fly and then use my own aircraft for my PAX and cross country :D ha ha i will endevor to chase it up :D thanks millard
  7. it is a nice aircraft :D is there a company that makes kits? because im limmited in the cutting gear area which makes making one just from planes hard?
  8. ha ha yeh its the schools propertry 120 students to repair everything :D makes it easy :D thanks seeker ha ha
  9. wow ok cheers cameron i had no idea they were already avalible he certainly dosent waste time. ha ha
  10. i guess you could do it personaly i would be chasing a STOL air craft that i can chuck gear in and go "bush" with second hand or from a kit if it needs work the its called a lerning curve but i would say second hand would in many cacses be better than a new kit. :D but things like a sonex and personaly iv never herd of a minicab arent really suited for rought wheatbelt strips or unprepared bush tracks. and being a fair way from the closest bituman strip would make it hard. two seater would also be required so you could do lessons and endorsments in your own plane.
  11. i dont know of anyine who had their pane damaged but there was some local damage as far as 250KM inland we had a few fences down and at my bording school (cunderdine AG) we had a flooded dinning room and our dorms had water in them. lost a few trees and damage to the sheep yard; 50 dead sheep from a falling tree. but other than that nothing this far out
  12. that is something i would love to do and as some one with a great interest and in 2012 starting an appretiship as an air craft mechanic i would love to have my own plane but the truth is their a "big" investment and one that many student pilots or eger student pilots simply cant afford. unless some one can give me the name of a plane (i dont like getting cold so one with a enclosed cockpit) under 20K?? cause i havent seen one yet? it definaetly would make lerning cheeper and you can always move up to better things when you have the experience?
  13. hmmm still not really conclusive reluslts and it dose seem a bit pro zenith. but im sure the problem will be resolved then they will need to re-establish their sales and reputation. so i think it will be a few years before there back to bring a reputable company
  14. looks like an awsome plane will compliment the range of air craft already on offer, ha ha nice paint job :D haha thanks for showing us the pic any idea when it will be put on the sales list??
  15. WOW natfly really is "the event" of aviation!! ha ha well hope you all have fun :D it sounds like it will be an awsome event! hope you all have fun ha ha cheers CK
  16. ha ha yeh i would say the six is the way to go cost you a little more but definetly worth it :D ha ha wow they really must make some top quality planes, dose any one know how many are flying around the country and WA??
  17. thats great john im thoughly interseted in these air craft haha and im yet to find the money to get one :( best of luck ha ha i guess it was well worth the trip?? have you already got another plane??
  18. ha ha i will be certain to do that bones ha ha that certainly has rectified a few of my missconceptions thanks.
  19. ha ha well its a new thing to me i must admit im not very confident around gyroplanes the idea of not having an engin to turn the thing above you to keep you in the air dosent gel with me. but my mate has a drifter so thats ok :D ha ha yeh well iv only being involved with aviation for a year so it should be an experiance.:thumb_up:
  20. ha ha well tomo any one can fill a ping-pong ball with cement and hit it around the back yard with a criket stump well thats as close to golf i get :d ha ha dont get me wrong tho good sport just to much money in it.
  21. um its just a "fly-in" for the weekend operate from a different strip. catch up with other aviators, everything is put on by the locals :D haha if you go at some stage you will be eating some of our prime lamb :D under wing camping or rooms at the caravan park. just a weekend of fun!! if i can go.
  22. how much is the kit for the savanna??
  23. im no expert but isnt it that little white ball that hurts when you get hit in the side of the head with it ha ha your ment to hit it down that long green think called a green ha ha well again im no expert
  24. ha ha unfortunatly my situation with spendoola (money) prevents me from fly on a regular basis :'( im working on it ha ha should have done my solo some time next year, i hope!!:thumb_up:
  25. haha well i hope i can go myself un-fortunaly i might not be able to :'( but i will certainly make every effort. ha ha well ahlocks hope you do well with your golf :D :D dont drink to much ha ha or the little white ball might dissapear.
