hey all i have just read a story which included a paul and linda williams somewhere in nth qld apparently paul owns/flys a carbon cub. I knew a paul and linda williams who were interested in flight but lived out at chinchilla in qld and was wondering if they are the same people.if any 1 knows them could they pass this on or have them reply thanks.regards jeff

haha if only John has me coming at 6am on a sunday ,my next 1 will be this sunday the 1st as there isnt much turbulence at that time i have only 4 hours with him so far .however i am enjoying it and have made the commitment in myself to continue and complete up to what i am after .

R then u would have recognised the picture of the Lightwing was going up today sunday the 24th but possibly not clearing till about 8 am so decided with John to postpone till usual following sunday (payday weekend ) wouldve gone up later but am going to new airport open day at Wescamp at Toowoomba .Yes am sure we will meet up out there eventually what are your days you usually try and fly

hav to be optimistic lol

Im flying at Coominya Flight Training which is about 1.5 hours west of brisbane near wivenhoe dam CFI is John Walmsley have only 4 hours up training on a lightwing GR 912 am really enjoying it just starting to get used to it certainly have a long way to go but should be fun all the way

welcome nudge i too am new

well they let me on here so u shouldnt hav any probs if it flys its always good to here about and learn about it

welcome ronnie

good luck nancy mayb 1 day i will catch up but at the moment i am aaaggggeeeeees away lol just started my RAA training and loving it

welcome bugsyb i am also just starting out so will prob catch u on this a bit where are u training

i remember reading that story

hey steve and welcome im close to 50 but am only 47 and i reckon i will still feel this way wen i get there and besides doesnt flying make u (feel) younger.plus as a new student pilot i reckon i will b close to fifty by the time i get my cert?

hey welcome i will take a look as well i am in queensland australia

welcome windshear

welcome panicmouse just read up on that aircraft looks preety cool

welcome magishme i am new here and to flying as well but am sure i will have a great time

hey JB i too am new to flying and will probably stick to RAA due to cost reasons and want to just get out and enjoy flying for flyings sake some of these aircraft certainly seem though that you could have quite a few trips in without depleting your bank account

yes welcome chris

nice plane and welcome

welcome Tim i am a new member here as well as a new flyer still doing my student training but find all the topics on here as good to read,especially as i am only qualified to listen and not make comments lol much like children should be seen and not heard scenario haha.however reading different opinions and methods of tackling issues is what flying is all about i suppose and can only add to the enjoyment of flying

abuse by the instructor thats a bit scary especially if ya just learning

hey Tony I am a new student flying with Coominya Flight Training find it good there not much traffic which is good for me just starting up.Am training on a lightwing and find the prices good for me.Like you said it depends on where you live I havent had anything to do with Caloundra and Archerfield but they also seem to have good recommendations so you should have no problem continueing if you need any more info let me know.whichever way you go im sure all us newer pilots will catch up 1 day cheers.Jeff

fibreglass body did look good would a heavier body mean more stable in flight i wonder what size fuel tanks etc.am only just learning now but the lightwing does seem to be popular

Hey all i am currently learning on the lightwing and have only just started but it certainly does seem to be a nice little aircraft and hopefully i will be buying my own aircraft in the future.which type who knows at this stage but i suppose the type i should be looking at would be something not to fast but sensible for my hours and experience,something with a good history and popular. a type of a/c where i can continue to learn and increase my hours without costing the world in fuel etc. my instructor certainly seems to like them as a trainer and i suppose it all comes down to costs and your own personal choices and requirements but i certainly will check out Dougs site

thankyou am sure i will enjoy
