C182RG @ Bris today

[The_Pharoah]

Just saw what looked like a C182RG about 500'-1000' above Fortitude Valley at around 12.30pm today heading straight for the approach to YBBN Rwy 01 do a MASSIVE 180 deg turn around (the wings were almost 90 vertical!) and head back the other way...I then saw a VB B737 take off from Rwy 19 at the same time.

I wonder if the pilot was given a little 'warning' from ATC not to stray into the t/o path of Rwy 19. :}

Hmmm maybe a stunt pilot practising wake turbulence turns.....:D

I wonder whether his/her ears will stop ringing before their bum starts smarting...

C172RG, photographic flight, judging by the training of the PIC was perfectly legal and allowed...

I won't mention the registration or who was flying it.

I also saw it, they were 60° turns max.

Case Closed!

:ok:Pyro

[The_Pharoah]

quite good turns too...didn't even seem to lose ALT either

[Jabawocky]

now that Pyro has spilled the beans..........:suspect:

And after that many steep turns in ones career..... I should think so!

bloody hell jaba, cause I knew what was happening, passed on from one of my 'contacts' :}

Also:
MASSIVE 180 deg turn around (the wings were almost 90 vertical!)I think that'd be a pretty small (radius) turn.. technically speaking :D
