I can see 2 beavers in the photo. If it is in fact

a one woman operation

When Russians copy something they tend to go all the way...

A discount airline, from 250 rubles ($9.53!!!), 18 destinations... and the girls are possibly better than Bransons!

With 800 hours behind one of those engines KellyKelpie, I simply would never be there in the first place so there was never a need for me to turn religious and pray.

what you cant see in the photos is the miles of wide sandy beaches directly below the camera ship.

Well the engine on someone's Jabiru did quit on them about 68 miles south of YBHI yesterday afternoon. Hearing a Mayday call sends shivers up my spine, however the aircraft put down safely & was soon located by another Jabiru & a Chieftain.

yep, you can read about the "crash" where no one was hurt and the aircraft was undamaged, apart from said head bolts, in the local newsrag.

I dont think it was that one...or its a bloody fast Drover, it was at YCAB around 2pm.

And as far as I can tell from the register the only one with 0-360's.

From memory Jeff Trapett had one of those 3 engine Doves in his hangar probably 8-10 years ago, I wonder if it's that one....
