I don't know when I will be back in England, I retired from the training stuff in April of this year, however I may be over just to visit.
The guys from Holland are taking over on the training and ferrying stuff for me.
It is nice to know that if nothing else I left a very capable group of pilots to help keep the PBY's flying.
If you want to get a ride in their Cat, that can be arranged..
May see you again some day, one never knows what will transpire in this business.

Standard PPL stuff. I have about 500 hours. I currently own and fly an aerobatic Beech C23 Sundowner 180. Previously owned: Beech 77 Skipper, PA28-140, C150. Rented/flew 172s, 150s, 152s and PA28-181.

96 types, ain't adding up the numbers!
Most recent flying mostly in a Beech BE23, Piper PA28-161, Stinson S108-2, Thruster TST and Southdown Raven-X. No order of importance or preference intended. (Actually, the Stinson is making me work hardest, and the Raven the least, so those are probably my current favourites).
I confess I'm looking towards my 100th type and hoping to make it something particularly interesting, but not sure what. Anybody know where I might get a trial lesson in an airship?

Now I'm bored and want to fly something that requires a bit of effort. Anyone want to loan me a Tigermoth?

My flying club created a t-shirt listing aircraft we'd flown. Among them are the Apollo 13...
Can't remeber that particular flight. Must've been after a very long night previous.
In real time however:
PA18-150 (floats as well), PA25-235, PA28, PA28R, PA32, PA34-200 (blimey it almost climbs on one!), PA46-310P.
C150/152, C172, C172RG, C182RG, C177RG (nice one).
Rockwell Commander 112TC, Commander 114B (part owned).
DA40 Diesel.
Giles G202 (yeeeeha!!!).
Lancair 320 (no actual time logged).
SAAB MFI15
SF25 - motorglider
& couple of gliders, ASK21, DG500
Not nearly enough hours and types!
