Hi Folks, I've belatedly joined the site, bringing 12 years of flying and instructing experience with Steve and Lisa Ruffels' Eagle School of Microlighting at Bright (YPOK) in NE Victoria. (I'm Lisa's dad). I'm an active pilot with an XT912 Cruze aircraft, who relishes flying at one of Australia's premium tourist locations, where windy days are the exception rather than the norm - Victoria's spectacular high country. (I've also posted a thread in the microlight section, in which Eagle School is offered for sale, following Steve's very sad and unexpected death late last year). I also have a brother, Roger, who buys, makes and flies various GA aircraft, these days out of the LaTrobe Valley airfield. I'm looking forward to sharing your posts.

Hi to any trike CFIs out there who might be looking for a new business opportunity at a premium location. The assets of Eagle School of Microlighting P/L, located at Bright (YPOK) in NE Victoria (Australia) are now available for you to buy. Eagle School was founded and operated for 25 years by industry pioneer Steve Ruffels, who sadly passed away in October 2012 at age 60 from Stage IV melanoma. To follow up, contact Lisa Ruffels on 03 5750 1174 0r 0428 570 168, or her dad, Alan Barlee (flown with Steve and Lisa as an instructor for the past 10 years) on 03 5750 1880 0r 0429 438 673.
