Getting back to a more important thought (regards the photo);

is it just me or does anyone else also see "....another 4 empty kitchens...." (or "....another 4 empty laundries....") etc, you get the drift.

Just asking. ;)

By the looks of them galdian, I think they have no trouble filling thier kitchens with a stay at home bloke of their own if the need arises!

The way things are going we'll have a female prime minister next!

Who do you think cooks their meals & does their laundry now then?

Any one of those four girls could do a better job than the one we've got!

Pyro, I wish my life was passing me by as slowly as yours seems to be, but then we may have our rights and lefts confused. i waved goodbye to Katrina (lass on the right in photo) as she set sail for the Creek at the beginning of the season last year. Alison (left in photo) spent a number of years there, but no longer.

Plenty of pics propblast, but this is the most evocative of the area for me. Taken by the then CP I believe.

Wow, this is slightly awkward :O
Looks like I'm never going to escape that picture..thanks Brian ;)

Onya Possum :ok:

Sorry I missed you gals on the way through, mind you Mrs Jaba did get some awesome sunset pics on the way past your place.

Keep up the good work.

Hey Jaba - ya back home now? Heard you yesterday just before 10AM local "on climb to 7,000" then just before mid-day heard you being handed off to Brisbane Centre.

DF.

Cheers pyro. Thats kinda what I thought. The central Australian summer is stifling. Note: A bottle of coke for lunch is not sufficient hydration for a long afternoon flight. First and only time I have been badly dehydrated in an aircraft.

Brian, that pic is awesome. I only wish mine could turn out that well when I take them.

Gooday DF...

Was that climbing or descending?, I planned 7000 out of YBHI, but the FZL was higher than forecast there so I went up.....and to avoid sitting in cloud went higher and higher.....O2 is good ;)

WX was pretty sad out there.....I logged 3 hrs of IF time on the way home.

Can't go anywhere it seems, a Virgin Australia Captain....soon to be RV8 man also heard me there while he was enroute ML-CS. Just as well I was being a good Jaba then:O

Definitely on climb - must have been as you were taking off out of YBHI. Wasn't really taking much notice until the callsign registered! ;) Yep, weather around this area has been pretty ordinary for the past week. Wednesday morning was a no-go zone at YLEC due to rain & low cloud.

DF.

Yeah it would have been good to catch up Jaba! As it turned out I had to head to Marree for the night anyway though. I trust you had a great trip!!?

mmmm
 

i'd let them hold hands with me..... :E

Miss you girls!lol

Stopped in there this week and despite the pub having no power had a great time. Really welcoming from the two wrightsair staff members we met, even got a hand refuelling and pushing our planes around. From what was said sounds like a top place to work, well done guys!:ok:

Wrightsair was awesome.. loved my time there.

Grats on the appointment Talia!

Hope all continues well for you

:ok:


Jas

Now just get rid of the Wrightsair shirt and replace with something more appropriate. :ok:

BOLLOCKS!!!!!

I see nothing in need of change! :p

I do. It should now be "Opal Air", not some tatty old "fly-by-night" organisation based in the GAFA. :} Just jokin' Trev.

Anyway, good on yer Tai. :ok:

Well done to Talia, I've also heard great things about Wrights Air and met Trevor while hour building in the outback, great bloke.

Unfortunately I know of at least one CP that is 1 year younger, although I would agree she's the youngest female CP out there as far as I know.

I also know of a few CP's that are (in my case - were) younger when appointed as CP, i was 23, sadly that was a few years ago now :(.

In any case, congratulations on the appointment as CP. no mean feat at all :ok:
