The rego is hiding behind the wing on the tail
Pretty handy that, GB. I reckon we might see more shots from that angle in the future - should save a bit of Photoshop work . Maybe you should revise the scheme on the 172

Never mind the sabre chuck, nice as they are. never afford the gas tho! You forgot to grab the 180 in the background. quite a few 180/185 went as military aid in the 60s still lying around i assume thats one of them. Oh well off to cart parcels round in the dark

Bentleg you know too much, PF has spent far too much time in Oodnadatta by the sound of things and Torsion Box looks as though he's been in the top-end for far too long. All correct.
Thought someone would've known the beach. It's about half a mile off the end of runway 10. The chain of dried lakes are about half between this beach and the impact crater.



Cessna's marvellous 210. One of the best things that they ever pushed out through the factory door's at Wichita.
On the trip (4,400nm) the aeroplane consistantly tas'd out at 170kts up at 9,500'. The other remarkable fact about the trip was that not once did we ever experience a headwind on any of the legs. Not once!!!
The lowest groundspeed noted was 177kts, the highest was 215kts.

How much to buy a 210? I want one!!!
My dream machine, sorry Doctor. 25 plus years ago, I did mail runs in one.
I have flown a few and Cessna, DH6,B737, 747-400/800 and still dream of 210's and 170's

The only reason anyone would be in love with the C210, is because they have not spent enough time in a Bonanza!

40 Deg,

Let me get this right; you've flown the 747-800? Have you got a time machine and have come back from the future? MS Flight Sim doesn't count as flying

Which one of you was off track?




I think if I was buying a single a C210 would be my choice.
I appreciate the room inside.

Pontius,

we take take delivery in 2010. I am a few months ahead, your right. Problem with posting after the pub. June 2010 is our delivery date unless it is delayed again.
