Looking for an instructor
 
G'day gents and madamoiselles

Anyone know where I can find a Caribou instructor ? need one urgently

thanks

Disco Stu 1st Dec 2008 02:38

131757 and ask for Bruce Byron.

He might have a recency issue though.:}

Tagneah 1st Dec 2008 02:44

Caribou's are very hard things to ride. I'd stick to horses.

Give Hawkers a call at Brizzy inter, there's 2 of them sitting on the tarmac outside.

What!!! :eek:

I know that the view is nice and all but why would they do that to their staff (if they have instructors)?

Eight,

Give Sqn Ldr Tim Shaw at RAAF Amberley a call. He will point you in the right direction.

Grog.

I'm also looking at getting a Caribou endorsement. Does anyone know of any Caribou's that are available for private hire or for endorsement training (preferrably in Australia)?

Cheers
Tiger

PC9 Instructor
 
Hi

Does anybody know where I can private hire a PC9 with instructor to do some local flying.

Would prefer new model with not many hours, and also cheap (less than $250) per hour


Its nice to dream anyways

" Give Hawkers a call in Brizzy! )
Got your finger on the pulse there.
Hawkers sold their hangar to EAD's about 5 years ago and closed up.

They now rent space in the Brenzil hangar ( way down at the old international hard stand ) and run a Aus style FBO. Nothing else.

Way to hang a RAAF employees details out there in the public forum, even if the location is incorrect.

Mods any chance of having said persons name removed??

VH-XXX 2nd Dec 2008 07:43

Megle2, there were 2 Bou's parked outside the "Hawker Pacific" hangar at Brisbane on Friday. My apologies your lordship if the hangar is not owned by Hawker any more.

Tim Shaw was a TV personality famous for selling everything imaginable from DEMTEL in the eighties and nineties.
He was famous for giving away sets of steak knives with everything. "BUT WAIT! There's more! :D

Z.:ok:

Gundog01 2nd Dec 2008 23:33

Zhaadum, thanks for the history lesson mate.

Dont you not think that an anonymous forum should remain that way, especially when the person whose name is mentioned proably didn't agree to have it published here???

I know i am personally very protective of my personal details being public knowledge.

megle2 3rd Dec 2008 04:07

XXX, thanks for the lofty title.

Simply Hawkers have been long gone.
EADS will be cheesed off that you can't read their signage.
And when I looked over that way last week there were 4 bou's.

And no instructors.

Lasiorhinus 3rd Dec 2008 08:22

Wait.... Gundog, are you Tim Shaw?
:eek:

Gundog01 3rd Dec 2008 20:57

Lasiorhinus.....no mate but i know him and what have to asume that he (like most of my colleagues) wouldn't want his name splashed around. Thats all.

Lasiorhinus 4th Dec 2008 07:37

... the Tim Shaw from Demtel?

Gundog01 4th Dec 2008 10:17

Can't beat em, join em. Plus if you postin the next 5 minutes you'l recieve this set of steak knives....and.....

Eight Ball 5th Dec 2008 11:21

Wait there's more.............

So, is Bruce Byron still current on the DHC4 ? does anyone know his email address where I can get a hold of him ?

Any airforce instructors out there who use to fly the bou ?
