first solo circuit in SVW, 16 yrs ago, on a perfect summers morning, never forget it.


and most recenty, after being cut off and parked in the runup bay in out little Jabiru LSA, by a stuck up **** in a C172 pushing in front of the cue, clear to take off behind him, only to catch up on the "much faster" Cassna after 3 circuits, and told by ATC to Overtake on early crosswind...

strangely satisfying showing up the GA Spam can drivers (performance wise) when they make every effort to get in front of you so you dont slow them up.


Also, getting the Tecnam on the deck in 20Kt crosswinds at YHOX, and making an absolute greaser of it rates highly as well.
