Not funny!! some Logonians are normal people ( ie fly planes) and my house has increased in value in the last 4 years! so guys leave us alone there are worse places to pick on , ,lets see , Salsbury SA, Inala QLD, St Marys NSW, and melbourne, well that place i dont know ,Gosnells WA the list goes on BTW -
Thanks David as per post above Sierra was sold on , the guy has more time to fix the damaged wings (my biggest boo boo in an aircraft) Craig and i decided we dont have the time or inclination to fix it so with insurance money we purchased the Roko also my advancing years means that time is not on my side LOL but flying the Roko has made the flying enjoyable , and learning in a new aircraft is exiting , so happy days again , and as you say our kids are getting much taller than us ,2 sons previous marraige 6.1 and 6.2 and dan is 6.4 and size 14 boots!! wtf happened there mum is 5.6 and i am barely 5.8 so go figure ,will try to get the go pro closer to the front next time or put 1 in front . Happy days and have a great 2015 cheers gareth

pathfinder is where i did the majority of my training, great instructors (DOUG) and and got me through , picked up my weaknesses and they are very easy to deal with,and flying out of Archerfield certainly makes you aware , also tower is very helpful when you do male a mistake -
