Yes I mentioned the signal square in my post that went off into the ehter. I wonder how many of today's students flying in ATC controlled environments are taught about the square - no dig intended at any training establishment.

M-B fanclub - the use of the term Endex tells me all!! And I guess you've heard of Doddie Hay - me mum went to school with him!!
Just as well M-B had someone willing to test the prototype.

Pulse: I too would be gracious if I saw you in a Moth. Side slipping - don't like teaching that any more do they - beats me why not. My instructor used to be in first Spitfire Sq in 1930 something and he made darned sure I could and that was in a C.150! He used to get in and the first thing he would do was light up a fag! I can feel the politically correct attacking me for even mentioning it!!

But hey, Pulse - Twin GPS - you'll tell me you have a Cirrus SR22 with one of those fantastic 9 inch screens hooked up to the Garmins - now that is something to behold!!


FFF - thanks for all the non r/t procedural info - maybe Pooley's and the other guides should put a column in to tell us where you all fly!

Have a safe aviating w/e!
