On the contrary Multime, from what I have seen of this young man he may well end up being a CP one day. I have met a lot of young lads during the (almost) 18 years I have worked in the industry, & there are only a handful of them that I would recommend to a prospective employer if my opinion was sought. Disco is one of them! :ok:

DF.

I'd second that:ok:

Carro

Make that three of us now :ok:

Keep up the good work mate!

CMN :8

shucks guys, you're too kind :O

Great news for Kununurra wannabes.

Baz Luhrman is going to shoot a film with Nicole Kidman in Kununurra some time next year. The working title is "Lady in a Boat".

Which luxurious accomodations will be Nicole and her co-star be honouring? My best guess is the Kimberley croc. She will be delighted to share with the years crop of struggler wannabes. Or maybe the upmarket Kununurra Hotel. I can see her however, doing a Bungles, even if Loading System Kilo promises her a front seat.

As for Disco, he's a top bloke, and I would trust him any day with someone elses airplane. Just not the tires...

tell me about it...ay disco......:E :E :E :E

You just concentrate on those brake pads and we'll be right, dont you agree Delta? :ok: :E

...disco

Nah, the only thing they let him on these days is a C172 :E

How did the flight go??

I hear he needs to use the rear cargo door to get int his Baron...

CMN :ok:

I guess thats why they have you in the 402 now huh? :}

CMN,

C172 flight went like a dream :ok: First time for everything!

But re: rear door of baron, not funny... actually had to get out of the a/c once that way :rolleyes:

Get back to study, bloke. Mawgh. :=

Thread hijack anyone?

...disco :}

thread name change
 

must have made a wrong turn, thought this thread was about kununurra 07, somehow i've ended up in the "we love disco" thread!
Not that I don't want to sing the praises of the man...knx isn't the same without ya disco. Your wife and kids at oombi say "hi".

Delta

DD heard around the traps you would be leaving the said town soon-ish?

Be sure to swing by :ok:

...disco

Well at least he takes a decent amount of FUEL when he lands, unlike someone else I could mention! ;)

Must be a different Disco to when I was up there. In my day Disco was GK but that is another story for another time !!! By the way is GK still up there, I heard recently he is now at AA. He has some "different" ideas at times and can be a bombastic old so and so. Have butted heads with him on more than one occasion but deep down he has a heart of gold and will be the first to buy you a beer at the table of knowledge. At least with GK, you know where you stand and if your up front with him, more often then not you may just see a glimmer of respect come your way!!! However "IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT.....THERE'S THE DOOR !!!!" I heard he threw away the ciggies and the drink to become a marathon bike rider.....you think I'm joking !!!

Brings back some good memories hearing you guys carrying on the legacy. For anyone thinking of going, go do it. It can be tough, the pay is ****, the work is hard but a great place socially to spend a couple of years and you will make some lifelong friends and have some fond memories. The best bit though is when you finally get parole after your 2 or 3 year sentence !!!

Would love to get back up for a pilot awards night sometime. Is Kim Chick still there at Schlongair? Do you still use "Kimberley" as the chat frequency ? Is Laaady in the Boat still the drink of choice ? Is Warringarri still the only radio station you can get on the ADF???

Good luck to you all venturing up that way this year. The only advice i would say is get up there sooner rather than later and if you get a job try hard to not bend anything, it usually has career limiting results. I believe it is an easier environment to get a job there now then when I was up there with less pilots going through the flying schools, or so I am told.

Good luck, good flying and look after those old girls. Many an airline pilot has cut their teeth on those old planes. Happy and safe flying !!

Career ending...Easterns must be oblivious
 

heard that SA's 310 bender is now on the books at Easterns!:eek:

Aerlik - that is correct, but he laid his cards out on the table. He has never hid the truth from any employer post incident. Good on him. Look forward to seeing the bloke back east soon.


Disco - wouldn't let you drive my car, and it ain't no porsche either.
