  1. A couple of thoughts re Ozkosh that was: I drove from the Gold Coast to volunteer as one of the airside marshalls at Ozkosh. As an older trainee pilot thought it would be ( and was) a good opportunity to check out a wide variety of aircraft up close. Met the full range of personalities too!! Totally ignored by vendors as I wandered around with the airside bib on!! The RAA classes were overflowing full - need a larger area. Air was stifling ( stunk) Food - drove into town for choice. Camping - amenities were great. Toilets & showers better than Oshkosh for reasonable cost. For our small flying population it was a good pipe opener to be developed. For anyone to backbite and bitch to the extent the entire event could be cancelled should brand them as persons to be avoided at all costs. Happens everywhere it seems. For myself, I'm enjoying learning away from the Madding Crowd and remain hopeful someone with more sense than angst can ensure this fledgling event continues.
  2. G'day - another Aussie joins the ranks. Want to purchase a LSA amphibious aircraft next year and have specific requirements that seem unattainable to date. Composite engineered body and high wing - demountable/trailerable. (not a Searey) 2 wheels that will handle sand up front. (not a Colyaer, et al) Corrosion resistance optimal. (Can handle that part myself). Pusher 100HP minimum. Side opening window - ala Searey. Don't want monocoque/tilt opening. Price under $150,000 new. Second hand ok if meeting above specs and under 200 hours and under $100k. Ideas?
