The Home of Photos in Dunnunda! Mk II
CFK is in my logbook also, Dora. Did my Bonanza endorsment in it with the infamous Hemple in the 70's. He read the paper while I familiarised myself with the Bo!

206

I remember that day well, can still see it all unfolding in front of me, I have my fair share of hours on that particular aircraft but on that day she was still tied up while we used the other 206.
As mentioned, a student attempting cross wind landings, things didnt quite go to plan.. Luckily for the student, just a little shock and red face..
Put the old girl out of action for a while though.. I remember picking her up after the repair job having to ferry to MB.. Was a little nervous and even wore my pilots rig, climbed a lot higher than necessary for the short ferry.
As far as I know she is still flying today, but now the big brother is a Airvan...

Hi all..
I hope this is the right place to ask:
I'm looking for reference photos of Cessna 150s with the taildragger conversion fitted, specifically close-up photos of the tail wheel assembly, for a modelling project.
If anyone can help, it'd be greatly appreciated!
Cheers

Hi SkydiveAndy, were you around when this one happened?
There's a lesson in this... always tie down your aircraft. Who would have thought on on a nice day with light winds that a strong front could appear from nowhere and cause an Airvan to flip over! Nobody saw it coming until it was too late.
