Sorry old mate. I've already got the winning ticket.

First step, establish an RAA school to replace our recently closed establishment.

Couple of Texan Clubs for basic instruction, couple of CTLS's for cross country work, couple of Carbon Cub SS's for taildragger endorsements and a couple of Sting RG's for retractable endorsements.

All instructors paid well above award. Low hire and instruction rates to reflect the small profit margin (aka tax loss) requirement. Fund a few scholarships each year for interested and committed youngsters.

Then expand to GA training.

Then Tiger Moth, Harvard, and the Darwin Heritage Flight of P-40, Zero and Spitfire - just for the February 19 Bombing Commemoration displays.

And a couple of PC-21's for Turbine endorsements and mock dogfighting with Coodakid3.

Sigh.........

But at the moment (and in the absence of any hireable RAA aircraft or affordable GA aircraft) I'd settle for a clapped out Jabiru 120.
