P.S. Perhaps not much point posting a medical with my name and address removed?
Gerry111, a quick inspection of my logbook this evening... I flew my first solo flight on the 4th June 2003 in a Basiar C152 VH-LBJ from Bankstown Airport and my last flight was in a Clamback & Hennessy Piper Warrior VH-PZW on the 18th April 2018 (photos of which are attached - and apologies for how bad they look).
If I could offer some advice Gerry111.... get some new sources, because the ones you are listening to are letting you down.
