Ogeranang.
I'll retire if I can't crack at least one! |
Sorry Fathom you're voted off the island....Guari:ok:
Up the page; Wittman tailwind Deathrap Bo parked next to a craft class origamy project Varieze (sp?) |
The third pic is not a zenith it is a savannah.

Sorry Fathom you're voted off the island Anyone want to buy a copy of Jane's Guide to the World's Airstrips? |
|
where?....just off the ground:)..what?......something that I had a nightmare about recently!:bored:
The PIC looks as if he's just come back from a bank robbery & the guy at the back looks as if he has just spotted the cops! Just teasing. I gather that is a chute recovery system on that flying 'thing'? CW |
CW You are a funny fellow!
I wish OK the above pic is a hang glider tug...... they launch the HG from a trolley and he gets towed up just like a glider. The stick and rudder skills of the "bank robber" are pretty good too! During Tug ops I have not seen the pax. Me thinks you were at ILW last weekend;) Pics above, CC almost gets the gong! Wittman tailwind = Correct Deathrap almost ..... Drifter Bo parked next to a craft class origamy project :DSavanah Varieze (sp?) Correct, not sure which model |
The Phantom on his day off?
|
I wish et al,
Look in the background of the picture, to the left behind the tail of the hang glider tug: Does anyone know what the old fuselage next to the fuel tank is. ABX:ok: |
CW, yep, a recovery chute.
Jaba, very good skills, including landing and stopping in the pit he has just passed. Don't know about his captain skills though, his passenger fell out a few minutes later :) ILW? POPS. ABX, would imagine it was a 182. |
Chuckles wins the cigar!:ok: Guari it is. He probably landed there a few hundred times!
OK, now a really easy one. Capt Fathom has the first guess! http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i3...ingcircuit.jpg |
Inglewood
Annual Flyin......not sure how much misbehavior goes on at night but its fair to say its a big bash! Might have to brave it next year! J |
jaba you mean to tell me that a 'thing' not much better looking than a hanglider itself actually pulls hangliders up? Hell talk about the cart pulling the donkey!:E
I have towed up model gliders before with large R/C planes & we always attached the glider to the CofG point on the tow plane because if connected to the tail the towing model was almost uncontrollable. I see the attach point is at the rear of that 'thing' that's not much bigger than a 1/3 scale tug anyway!:bored: Anyway would be amazing to see that in action, kind of brings a whole new meaning to 'tap dancing' on the rudder pedals hey! As a foot note I gather that wearing shorts during flight is ok 'cause you don't have much in the way of 'intruding' bugs up that way?:E CW |
You gave that one away Pinky! A bit out of my local area, which was Lae. I didn't get out much, only to Kerema once.
The Jane's has been retired! |

I better get some good shots of a random airstrip when i can, to test y'all! |
