Wow! is it me, or was that a petulant little swipe for no good reason from Pettycoat pilot? ( Thanks, Buddy! )
I had searched the net to find somewhere around Cairns that I might get an hour or two of instruction, as I have 3 days there coming up shortly. I'm not a complete novice seaplane pilot, having over 100 hours mostly in the US and Canada, but all on freshwater. A chance to enjoy a little instruction on the sea has a certain appeal, and seemed an appropriate way to go. Also I have an Australian CPL, though I haven't used it in over 30 years. Hence, the instruction would also have served as a useful refresher. That seems to rule out Cairns seaplanes, who don't seem to be an FTO.
Thanks FOD Hazard, for your reply was exactly what I'd sought, as I'd found Akuna's website to be off the air, and nothing else seemed any good. I'd hoped someone might know something not obvious from a web search. I appreciate your time.
BSD.
