Ex FSO Griffo's story reminds me of several flights made on different occasions for mate's 'bucks nights" We'd fly up from Canberra, (usually in a C182) park in the lighty parking area at Mascot, jump the fence and grab a taxi into Kings Cross to see the sights. After a good night out and appropriately rested etc it was taxi back to Mascot, quick flight plan at the briefing office at Mascot, jump the fence again, then fly back down to Canberra via National Park and Woollongong. Them were the days.
