i took out a 172 from with
http://www.racwa.asn.au/ out of Perth.
very professional outfit and very reasonable rates...i didnt have a problem as I am still training, so I went out with an instructor. They operate from 2 fields one tarmac, the other gravel so I got some pretty good T&G and full stop practice.
Gr8 ATC @ Perth who cleared me for 2 orbits around the city "follow the river and turn left the WACCA" and its gr8 to get some low level flying in over the sea to check for sharks.
