Pilot Pete Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 G'day all, I am not a pilot as yet but hope to rectify this by the end of the year. I live in Toowoomba Qld and will try for my license at Lone Eagle Flying School at Clifton. They seem to be a freindly bunch out there and I will be looking forward to training with them. At the moment I am looking for a 2nd hand 2 seater airframe with or without engine that needs fixing up and is going cheap or free.If anyone can help please IM or email me.

Pilot Pete Posted September 21, 2008 Author Share Posted September 21, 2008 Thanks Glen & Chris At Lone Eagle they start you on a Drifter as it is a little more hands on flying and a tail dragger, then they put you into the Jabiru. This way you get your endorsments for both types of landing gear and low and high performance aircraft. I think the cross country training is done in the Drifter as well as it is easier to look around you to get your bearings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest OzChris Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Sounds Awesome Peter - I love the idea of starting in a tail dragger! I have my endorsement, but did it the other way around... Good luck with it all. Looking forward to hearing about your experiences...dont forget to keep us all updated :] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
