The Flight of the Phoenix is a fantastic film (SAAA member’s favourite) and well worth watching if you haven’t seen it. I first saw it on TV in the 1970s, and I’ve wanted to build my own aeroplane ever since.

It follows the novel fairly closely, but leaves out some of the more gruesome bits. My copy even has the plans (not what I’m building).

Thanks guys,I've heard some positive feedback from sources so am moving onto a pre-purchase inspection and hope to view the aircraft myself next week!

I flew Don Matthews' Rotec-engined Rebel 4 weeks ago. Pretty sweet machine in my opinion.

If you're going to Watts to look at BHI, Mullumbimby isn't too far out of your way.

PM me if you want more information

G'Day all, I'm based in SE Qld and just joined RAAus after many years flying GA. Planning to get my RPL over Christmas-New Year. Long term goal is to build something, not much spare time at the moment, but never say never. In the meantime I'm looking forward to exploring this fantastic forum and meeting fellow enthusiasts. Cheers!
