  1. 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

  2. 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

  3. 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

  4. 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

     

     

  5. 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
