Good to see VH-LFU found a new life. Awesome C207 that machine. One of the few around with the IO-550 in them, what Cessna should have installed to start with.

Guessing game.... where did I take these?

Correct.... but where?

Capt Fathom, absolutely yes, Marathon Florida; good job. I'm hoping you didn't cheat by looking up the rego's.

I was just down the way a bit from there at Hawks Key, Duck Key. What a nice place, except that it blows 20 knots every day depending on the season.

Something too about the Keys where pilots don't care about their altitude and seemingly for much of the US. Nothing to see a Eurocopter or similar zooming down the overseas highway at 200ft at 11pm.

Jaba's RV-10 streaking across the sky in the background?

A certain Redcliffe based Gipsy Major 10/2 powered Tiger?

Good eye spotting there, I hadn't noticed the aircraft in the background, bound to be Jabba.

Dora, had you ventured slightly eatward yesterday or today, you may have seem Retard Vehicle under going Annual Inspection.........and you may have been subjected to a task and tools.

No RV-10 action in that video.

Keg......the deal was TWO ppruners.....no half chocky frogs for you!


Another mate has moved his baby in at YCAB, cool huh!
