VH-UMR

Kanga 767,

Not sure if you owned/own VH-UMR but at the moment we have a student at archerfield who flies it (apparently his father owns the plane I believe).

RAC.

IVW was a brand spanking new C152 Aerobat when I first flew it (spinning lesson) pre first solo at Rex Aviation at Bankstown...getting on for 28 years ago.

Every time I see her at Redcliffe it's like bumping into a childhood sweetheart.

yes thats right, we parked there because there was another aircraft filling up before us... Redcliffe ran outta fuel... so the instructors all flew the planes to CAB in order to fuel up...

Whoa! will try again tonight. I'm flying to Incheon. The last pic was taken flying to Shanghai/Pudong where the winds were mild. Saw 600knots gs last week when flying to Incheon. Stay tuned...

Well if you say so- but I suspect this will be easily beaten. Flying West towards YPPF over the ranges during my CPL training once I was seeing 42kts GS with cruise power set (105kt TAS) sustained for about 5 minutes. Slow going!
