..s .But than he had a brainstorm,He , hit the spoilers ,so with the flick of a switch down went the bait and a big barra started eyeing off his bait,than just as it was about to strike a rat came flying across the creek,dove into the water grabbed the bait and started fleeing to the other side.Now bull was fishing in his custom made boat{old set of floats off a drifter with a 250 yamy on the back]so he turned the boat around and gave it full throttle.Talk about laugh,it was the funniest thing he had seen[since seeing Turbo in his fishnet stocking of course]all he could see was a tail sticking up out of a big bow wave and a big gold tooth as the rat was looking backwards at the big barra that was now chasing him......

Hi all well after more research,i,am still none the wiser .I found photos of the jackaroo and the winton cricket and a winton cricket clone made by Arther Amour on the net and all these aircraft and the tyro all have very similar characteristics only difference i can see so far is the squared off tailplane on the tyro2 but the photo of the winton cricket and the clone both have the short stubby wings single solid struts and back of wing wire braceing now i,m really confused any help would be great thanks

Hello david,not much known about the airframe ,was powered by 447 but i brought it without an engine .I,ve checked out geoff eastwoods page but can only get info on tyro 2.The aircraft came with minimal history,no log books, no data sheet and it has a fixed small nose wheel even though it is a taildragger.I brought the tyro from a fellow in merreba qld came in custom made fully enclosed trailer has not flown for over ten years, fabric on flight sufaces tested ok and had my old instructer Carlo pretti [he,s a lame ] check it out,say,s it,s still ok.cannot find any history on web or photos.I would like to find out where i go from this point ie. data sheet rego reccomended power plant etc any help would be great .ps thanks for the info mipinaus.

g,day all just brought an old tyro and would like some feedback on its history if known ,first flight 1984 rego number on wing 630 anything would be appreciated thanks
