  1. It was my pleasure Ian. Hopefully it doesn't take me too many years to organise a flight over that way, although I reckon maybe until the kids grow up it might have to be a commercial one to keep them and mum happy:wink:. Already the four year old has been worded up by mum about the WA wild flowers so some seeds are already growing there and I can see us having a trip over that way before too long.

    Just give me a yell whenever you make plans .Iam about 200klm south of perth usually plenty of spare time will find some anyway.Plenty to see cheers

     

     

  2. Landor Races WA 3/4/5 October 2015, 2 Good graded strips 1000 x 45.Plenty of food /drinks

     

    All camping Really good showers and toilets.Very good scenic flying with Mt Augustus N,

    Also a special thanks to Sam Doulton for looking after me on my trip through Quirindi in June

  5. My humble apologies Russ, I've told you a lie. I went to the store cupboard this morning to dig out and package up the vents only to find that they are 3 1/4" OD, not the 2" that you requested. Please advise if they can suit your needs (and in future never trust an old geezer's memory). Riley

    Good day If Russ Does not take them i wouldn't mind them PH 0409109244

     

     

  6. When at Quirindi yell out as there are a couple of forumites here and would be more than happy to catch up or help out or answer questions 012_thumb_up.gif.cb3bc51429685855e5e23c55d661406e.gif

    I will give catch u up, I had a bit to do with Quirindi in early days and teens .If there is a strip close to town it would be handy as i will be there a day or so cheers

  7. Last June I departed Bunbury forBallodonia/Border Village/Ceduna/Coober Pedy/Kulgera/ Tennant Creek/

     

    MKT /Kununurra/Drysdale River/Derby/Roebourne/Carnarvon/Eneabba/Bunbury

     

    My Savannah XL_VGW Never missed a beat. Fuel stops were never a problem with 140L About 50 hrs flying time I tried to average around 5000Ft/5100RPM The weather was very kind only a few rain squalls between Ceduna/Coober Pedy (the best sights were along the Gibb River road)

     

    My next trip for June/July 2015 in the planning stage is the Rail Line to Port Augusta / the coast to Apollo Bay/Gilgandra/Quirindi/ Townsville/ Mt Isa/ Boulia/Curtin Springs/Warburton/Kalgoorlie /Bunbury

     

    If anybody has any tips or info i would like to hear from you. Cheers Ian 0897272132
