  1. Great Footage, nasty powerline's!
  2. Ian would this be a standard size sim card slot, e.g. would it work with the sim out of my telstra usb modem?
  3. Hi am in the process with Telfords of Shepparton, so far, impressed and so good!:thumb_up:
  4. ERSA say's "No flight permitted except with permission of controlling authority-Temora Historic Flight Club. Non participating aircraft should plan to arrive or depart outside the display times. Priority given to display aircraft except for aircraft in emergency or Emergency Services Aircraft" Would anyone like us to discuss with the museum to find what they would require from us?
  5. Conventional Undercart is tha GO! Just like the one to the Left!:head_hurts:
  6. What ever happened to landing on the main Wheel's! Thought the training wheel was just to keep the prop from touching the ground!:cheese:
  7. Great Report, and how did the condition report go? Guess it was OK, you flew it!
  8. Hi Ian Looks Great, could this EFB also include the feature's of the above GPS and have AIP's/Dap's/ ERC's with update system etc. USB port or spot for normal sim out of my telstra modem so it can update as you suggest. Will it be approved so we don't have to carry all the usual charlie rap? Will the GPS have waypoints as well as wac's/VTC/VNC etc Cheers Guy
  9. And while out in the Centre check out the creek's flowing into lake Eyre, it is going to be the first or possibly the second time that the Paroo River will flow into the Diamantina River, in history of the white fella being here. Fairlly special I would have thought! Other than that flying the east coast is much more interesting than flying over baron red ground (although it does have feed on it at the mo!) A bit like flying from Las Vegas out to the Grand Canyon! is what the Centre of Australia can look like! Will you be here around Easter, big flyin in central NSW west of Sydney! Cheers Guy
  10. Hi Damo Welcome to the forums and Australia, we are west of Sydney at Temora and the Museum has a flying day here to day. At least the Tiger , Spitfire and Sabre will be flying, not sure what else will be thrown in! Should come for a look! Cheers Guy
  11. Too much time spent enjoying yourself on the ground control tower! lol:faint: Poor J:crying:
  12. Now the GPS has had a terminal Failure, it is time to turn on the Spare!
  13. Absolutely correct Motzi, however in some cases it can be of assistance in understanding what the heck we are attempting to achieve in the cockpit! KISS so why not just look outside and figure we need to be over there and just go! KISS
  14. How About, a = 60 x d / D, where, a = angle off track, d = distance off track, D = distance travelled (from station or last known fix) so if the distance travelled was 35nm and distance off track was 7nm, then the angle off track is 60 x 7 / 35 = 12 degree's off track And maybe I missed it! did someone explain that the 1 in 60 rule, is of course the rule of thumb! that if you have travelled 60nm and are 1nm off track that you will have a track error of approximately 1 degree. Or to put the other way if you were to travel 60nm 1 degree off track you should find yourself approximately 1nm off track! And yes I see Farri has explained this, Oh Well !
  15. I always thought if you were to directly earn monies from being pilot in command you needed to hold a Commercial Pilots Licence, maybe there is an exemption in RAAus!
  16. EVERY TIME I WALK AWAY FROM MY LANDING'S ! oop's suppose that is a "Landing Experience" not a Flight One Over Wilpena Pound with my family with gorgeous light returning from "Ettadunna Station" (which is where the Birdsville Track crosses the "Cooper Creek") after we had gone up to see the Lake Eyre Yatch Club hold their Regatta on Lake Kilumpunpunna, last July 2010. This is the lake on the Cooper just before the water gets to lake Eyre. That was also a pretty cool sight seeing Yatch's in the middle of a Desert, sorry open pastoral country!
  17. Hi There Peoples A Great read and good to meet a few of you at Cazza's! Managed to escape the Unicom tower this year and actually enjoy some very interesting and informative workshops, although did get called to provide a back up Base Station VHF as the main one had failed. Managed to get it functioning again with a screw driver and some contact cleaner, magic in a CAN ! Looking forward to having a Hangar before next years event ! As we now are the proud owner's of block #75 Temora Airpark, what a Great Place ! Bought our plot in the Retirement Village ! you could say! Just Lovin It !
  18. Hi There everyone, We arrived in my wife's Blue & White C182 in the middle of the show! I think I landed behind a CT4! Was a really great show! Saw Slarti taxiing, waited till most had left before leaving ourselves ! Cheers Guy Just checked out your photo's Slati they are really great, can even see the wife's 182 in the departure shot! Thanks!
  19. Hi Everybody, sorry for Neville and his family! Very sad and Hard to take, saw him in Moree a day or two before! Just wanted to clear up some misleading information in the media report. There is one powerline on the property which Neville was spreading and it is no where near where he would have been working, I have sprayed this farm myself, must admit though no this summer as yet! However earlier in the year! From the horses mouth I do not believe he hit a Powerline! Is there any report from the investigation team as yet? RIP Neville
  20. Well Done Darky! Now the fun starts! All the best, how long before you complete you CPL? Yeh
  21. Gee Guy's would like to say Thank You to everyone who has ever been involved with flight, the fella's who first flew, the man in the VS 300, what a dood! The people who built the Machine I presently fly (AT502) Etsa for repairing my mishaps. A really special dood who I don't think is on here (FK) he taught me lots, twin IFR etc. and presently holds ATPL IFR ATO and a comand on a Hars DC3. A very special teacher and Mentor in my flying career. What about the man at Evergreen aviation (he has the Sprose Goose in his Hangar) sorry i did not meet him while we were there! What an amazing museum! SR71 etc just cool How long am I aloud to dribble for? This flying world is an amazing place to be, would like to say thanks to all I have met and all those I will meet. just Fantasic! Thanks Guy's I treasure You All! Cheers Guy we will meet again!
  22. Welcome Lloydster to a world full of surprises and opportunities! As someone on here states "don't take it anywhere your mind has not been 5 minutes before" Most of all enjoy, I guess the work is the thing which pays for it! Best to be working today anyway, raining here on the YP!
  23. Welcome Doug, reckon there is a fly in on the long weekend near lamaroo if you are interested! Have fun
