G'day Bob,
Gee you must have been one of the original trainees at Aeropelican!
Were your instructors Stan Hone and Eric Newell?

If you could email me the logo and if you don't mind perhaps the first page of your logbook as we are trying to get as much memorobilia as possible for the reunion.
Yes, Kieth Hilder was the guy that started Aeropelican and he and Reg Hinde and Cec Redman cut the strip out of the bush. I'm pretty certain that Stan Hone was the first CFI at Pelican - a wonderful guy and one of those former WW2 instructors of that era.
Cheeers, Rod.
