S/E Plane Hire in the Kimberley (Western Australia)
Hi,
I'm wanting to hire a single engine plane for 2 weeks to go on a trip around the Kimberley and have been looking from Darwin to Broome in search of a suitable plane. Has anyone had any experience hiring up in NW Australia?
Thanks.

Slingair used to have a C182 and a C172.. but that was probably a while ago (actually.. 15 years ago... )

Might be a Lance at MKT, best to turn up in person with a carton or two.
Might also be an aircraft in Bachelor.
Could also try some of the Darwin and Broome based maintenance companies, many of the engineers own aircraft.
Going of some distant memories, there were a couple aircraft floating around Kununurra, either side of the Alligator hangar, more towards the town end.

There's a guy named Charles with an RA Aus registered Rally in Wynham. They can seat up to four but are restricted to two with RA Aus rego. I think that the rego is 24-5012 but I have no idea how you'd get hold of Charles. Ring the local pilot and ask if the Rallye is still taking up space in the hangar.

Is that cable the lead to the remote control (too cheap for a radio style one)?

The one thing I found interesting was the slats that would retract (into the wing) above a certain speed but extend (hopefully) in time to help the STOL characteristics on ldg.
