Bob Beattie is a name from the past was he an engineer with Rotorwork?
RW, When I knew Bob in 1959 he was a pilot with Silver City Air Taxis who then moved on to Robby's crop dusting out of Parafield, no subsequent knowledge I'm afraid. It was he who facilitated the construction of a control column for the right hand seat of the Auster so that Zoltan and I could get a little dual, we had a "special" 44 drum where all airport fuel drains were saved to fuel a little dual, saving the planet you understand, no drains thrown on the tarmac or grass, Zoltan and I were early pioneers.
