Cessna with Hill
 

Jetbrett is it at Leigh Creek?? :confused:

Fathom..

ISL only had 8500 hours when she from PNG as P2-MCA in 97 , so it has been almost a retirement job here in OZ ...:rolleyes:

.... definate retirment job for ISL - takes a long time to put the hours on it when it does 6 minute sectors.

Sad to hear it has moved on.

XR, correct, of the Useless kind no less.:}

14000hours
 

I read somewhere recently that the average Qantas aeroplane has flown about 65000 hours. They will be flying for some time yet.

WoodenSpoon,

C'mon, spill the beans... who is it on the rock?

OK, it's a cock on a rock. But, no frock:}

Last time tin was at the big red lump it was called Ayers Rock and it belonged to ALL Australians.
Refuelled at Connellans? airstrip in pissin rain the rock were a different colour as well.

Geez tinpis, you must be an old fella.
I'll bet your old green license folder is marked DCA innit :)

...and me instrument rating was endorsed for them funny VAR? fixed beam doo-hicky thingies as well...http://www.augk18.dsl.pipex.com/Smileys/old.gif

The best fun was the aural legs of the VAR.

Nice to know there is another old flyer still out there who has that endorsement

:D:ok:

ga trojan,

correct, that is ernabella, an interesting little strip to go into, especially when it is a bit gusty

VAR!!! Holy Cow :eek:

There was one still in existance when I started but I never experienced it.

VAR, you have to get right in between the legs on one of those for a bit of aural right? :E




Ernabella is even more intersting when the cloud is down low.
Bank Run VFR, builds character :)

OK, OK, due to popular demand...

It is none other than OpsNormal.

Thats who I reckoned it would be. :}

:mad::oh::mad:
He musta stole them boots......;)

Larpun Tinpis
 

L T is not the only Larpun to have a VAR, I TOO, how about a DME Homing, is that still done these days,

Cheers,

robroy

Nah Jamair, they were his boots. But why anyone would wear work boots to climb Ayers Rock is beyond me. :ooh:

But he beat me to the top, so I guess my cross-trainers aren't much better. Either than or he is fitter than I am. :{

That old strip, hard by the Redsands Motel, where the dingoes into the garbage bins would awaken all but the drunkest. Last time there was in Connair's 180 UPG, the one Harry 'Pelvis' Purvis earlier on did his Rock scenics in. Either UPG or UPJ eventually went to a bloke called Dave (Mittiebah Station) and his wife Jan, who flew F/A on Herons. (Had a feed at her place one night. Her old bassoon she'd turned into a standard lamp. Her interests at the time lay in a Heron driver, P.H.)

Please check PMs, tinpis.
