Flog some my way. Would luv a pic of LTB too if you got it. Lost my picture of that plane.... the way its all beat up and still flying keeps me motivated when i climb into the current rig.

Wow! I can remember LTB when it only had 1100 hours on it...

DUXNUTZ 4th Jul 2007 14:01

Man it must have been fun seeing Dinosaurs roam the earth!

morno 4th Jul 2007 14:08

Did it have the same red interior at 1,100hrs, like it did at about 18,000hrs??

And what about the grey/white paintjob??

'aveagoodknight 5th Jul 2007 00:10

Morno, yep, it had red interior back then and sounds like the same paint job too.

:ok:

jackthelad and anyone else with Airnorth pics,

Guys, it's magnificent to be able to converse with guys of whom all have flown the same aircraft for the same company!!! I miss my NT days with a passion, and am actually planning a trip to Alice, Darwin and Ayers Rock with some lads who I presently work with.
I was involved with the good ol' mail runs and as well as the night 'paper/freight' run.. so rego's like LTB, WMP, etc ring a large bell.
Based out of Alice for 3.5yrs (first 18mths with Alice Air Charter), I had a fabulous time and the flying really was magnificent. For those who were around when Airnorth Alice Springs was renamed to 'Chartair', and a new logo design was put up for competition, then you'll know whose design was selected, and still used ;)
Please send me pics guys and allow me to relive the memories, just as you have and the many after us that will.
An overseas jockey,

So it isn't just OpsN that breaks computers in your house now Pseudo?

Pseudonymn 6th Jul 2007 09:41

I didn't break it, Mr PM, I'm still able to use it. Unlike the lappy... :{ :* :{

a likely story.........

Continental-520 6th Jul 2007 17:35

Now you've opened a can of worms!
 
Don't be adding fuel to that fire, PM.

Pinky the pilot 7th Jul 2007 01:43

Would someone care to explain the (possibly embarrassing) story behind the last couple of posts?:confused:

Pseudonymn 7th Jul 2007 01:47

Pinky, I think that story is best left for OpsNormal... :{

The_spoon 10th Jul 2007 11:29


Pathie, suggest you ask Bush Mechanics why the TWP rebuild stopped so early on after being commenced if you'd really like to get the story from the source. It is good to see it flying again though. :D
From what I heard the tale of the rebuild had quite a twist to it....:}:}:}
