The Rotary Nostalgia Thread
ALLISON 250: Does anyone remember DCA's new directive in 1968 that pilots/LAMEs complete a theory course on the Basic Gas Turbine, to be certified to fly or maintain the Bell206, FH1100, Hughes500?
This course was initially conducted by Hawker Pacific in Sydney by Instructor Frank Pink (1968). It was attended by 3-4 LAMEs and one pilot.
I need verification that I was that pilot. There was a photo published in a Hawker Newsletter of the group I have described, around the Allison 250.
Anyone kept those Newsletters? I would appreciate your help in this matter. Thanks, in anticipation of good memories.
