hey matt, that sounds great! i have allowed for four weeks but reality is it will only be a couple of weeks. the planning stage is still early and we are happy to explore different options in regards to length of time. its an adventure that would be made even more fun by having others along for the ride!

can i ask why you wouldnt use LSALT? surely it is worthwhile doing regardless of whether you are IFR or VFR?

bring it on! :big_grin:

i dont know who you're talking about ......

Hi Dave We are allowing for four weeks... but expect the trip to take about 6 days there and six days back, depending on how much we want to fly about. We were thinking going via broken hill and coober pedy and then a different route on the way back. We will also have road crew, so some of our stuff can be carried and they will carry gerry cans to help with refueling. We are hoping to camp in remote places, as well as find some interesting towns to stay in. I think May is a good time of year to go but im no expert..... Rach

Hi Dave Rob and i are planning a trip to Uluru in May. its been in the planning for some time, and we would love to have others come along. Would you be interested in going that far? Rach

brilliant stuff dave! hope Bianca loved it! very cool being the first pax!

yay darky! great feeling hey!

so upset couldnt get there! would have loved to catch up with planey! will be there next year for sure! looks like a great turn out.

i couldnt be more jealous! plan to fly the US in the next 5 years. gotta be the trip of a life time! would love to take my own savannah over there. do you know if its possible to fly an Aus reg plane in the US?

awesome! that sounds perfect! would love some advice re booking for a camp site or can we just fly in and pop up our tent? will PM you closer to our departure for more details and swapping of mobile numbers. thanks so much!

thanks Spin... that would be great. Rainbow Beach is now on the itinerary! i love a good adventure!

Hey Maj, thanks so much for that. We had planned to fly inland anticipating that the weather may be a little all over the place. As we are not in a rush to actually be anywhere we are happy just to see where we end up. I will note down all the suggestions and get cracking on my research... we are really keen to meet up with forumers on our travels. thats what its all about! thanks for the advice everyone.... keep it coming! Farri, thanks for the offer... if we get that far north we will definitely call in.

Ultralights and i have decided to fly to the whitsundays after xmas and would love some advice and suggestions on places to stop, stay, avoid etc. we will be departing sydney on boxing day or there abouts and making our way up. We are keen to find places to stop over where we can camp or get cheapish accomodation. we are up for an adventure so are keen to hear of any out of the way, or unusual places we can explore. Fraser island and Lady Elliot Island are in our sights. look forward to hearing from all you northerners! Rach

forget treatment... go with your addiction. im a flyaholic .... welcome to our world!

big congrats darky! i still remember the relief (and exhaustion!) now you get to wear the cap and gown! :big_grin: Rach
