HI! Neil
Thanks for you comments re my medical history
It appears I'm not the only one with a similar medical history and some worse than mine
So I wish them all a speedy recovery
The Pics jus great and brought back memories of past pleasant times
Strange coincidence that you have the same Christian name & initials of the Instructor who was training me - Same colour aircraft as well which he owned from new
But I believed he moved to Canberra - that's why I said "probably not a Savannah S to train in again"
Well anyway he did an amazing job for which I am extremely thankful
Or are you the Same person?
Won't mention the Flying School
Stranger things have happened...!!!
And yes wild love to go back to Victoria which I visited many many moons ago but probably changed a lot (as has the Sunshine Coast) - that's progress I guess
Regards
David

Hello!
I take it you had a "Temporary Hartmans Procedure"
Followed by a Reversal - but much better than a lifetime Bag
Don't know much about Victoria being an ex Sydneyite and for the last 12 years or so Sunshine Coast ite
But I do know that they are some lovely flying to be had there I regularly watch Stefan Drury on utube he Flys a Cirrus SR22
(Rented) what a great GA Aircraft out of I believe Moorabbin Airport Vic
Flys all around Australia does a great job in his Airconditioned SR22 young guy but very funny and educational - watch his videos
If you have some spare time well worth it
I also have retired but not by choice just cannot do physical work any more
Glad you are progressing well and can now do the trips you wanted to do for a while
Regards
David

HI! Peter
Amen To That
So you 2 have been through the mill
You are the first person I have heard from with a similar story
Not very pleasant is it?
Your words can only inspire me more and I sincerely hope to God that you keep fit as a fiddle
Would dearly love to do GA but not unfortunately realistic oweing to the $ involved - so happy to stick with Recreational Aviation and I just love the range of planes available
I'm on the Sunshine Coast Qld
Where are you?
Keep Safe And Well
Best Wishes

HI! Again
To make a long story short
Basically after the 6th lesson was rushed to Emergency Hospital with a Perforated Bowel NO CANCER (knew that it was going to happen sometime as I had seen ultrasound pics of problem about 4/5 months previous)
Anyway had a temporary Colostomy hospital for 7 days
8 months later Reverse Colostomy so another 6 to 8 months to recover followed by 2 Hernias caused by weekened Abdominal Wall - been through the Mill
So to speak so just about recovered now from all of that Fun
Unfortunately now 72 years Old but very capable of Recreational flying
No problem with Medical Certificate and just longing to get back into the Sky asap
Might have to rob a Bank or 2 before that happens Ha! Ha!
Want to know about Hospitals?
Just ask me
Regards
David

HI!
Started learning to fly at a local flight School on a Fantastic Savannahs S Aircraft - Loved this Aircraft...!!!
Unfortunately after 6 lessons and just getting the hang of things had a health emergency - that was 2 1/2 years ago
Now wanting to get back in the game as back to "normal"
Probably cannot get the Savannahs S again so looking for a suitable School with a High Wing Aircraft possibly Cessna of some description
Cannot wait to get into the sky again and finally get my licence
I live in hope
Best Regards to all the Pilots/Learner Pilots and to all those out there with an interest in Aviation
Be Safe
