  1. I saw what clearly looked like a Lycoming in some of the news footage.It was painted bright red.
  2. Here's some news footage: http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/national/pilot-survives-light-plane-crash-in-forest-near-wungong-dam/story-fndo486p-1226513723665
  3. Well done to the instructor involved, I went through the exact same situation (failure of N0. 3 thru bolt on take-off) with only 6 hrs of solo time. Luckily, I still had 1000 mts of runway ahead of me.
  4. G'day Mick, yeah we are the same age. I kind of wish I had taken it up a bit earlier,but then again GPS wasn't invented in those days :-) Cheers-Steve
  5. I have only 3 hrs on the Jabiru so far.The runway has not been completed as yet and the funds to complete it are still uncertain.It is currently usable as a dirt strip though.
  6. Hi,my name is Steve and I'm learning to fly a Jab J160 at the Sport Aviation Academy in Wyalkatchem about 200km east of Perth.It's a great place to learn as there are no hills,great weather most of the year and almost no other traffic to worry about.Cheers -Steve
