    No I didn't. Found out later he was south and I was north coast.

    I would be nice to have some of the scenery I see in these post. Where I live is kind of FLAT. However, I did have a nice day flying.

    The last time I took a trip out of state, I got stranded in Tallahassee Florida, and had a personal saga trying to get my plane fixed or transported back home. I rented a trailer from a Just Aircraft Highlander Builder, and with the help of Rodney Wren a Kitfox owner in Hugo we got it back to Mesquite.

    Default Autumn in OZ

    It had been beautiful weather here over Easter and great flying weather. Love the way our little town of Mt Beauty changes colour in preparation for winter. thought I'd post a few pics. We are heading out to centre in about 10 days for a weeks fun so hope to post some interesting pics then too!

    cheers

    It really is beautiful Ross. I've just spent the night here in my beauty and it was worth the long drive just to see the autumn colour around here and Bright (on the other side of the hill). You'd hardly want to leave once airborne, as it's all downhill from here!

    I flew down to Reklaw and Fort Parker today. I'm glad I did a low fly buy at Reklaw. About 1/3 way down the grass runway the is a drain or ravine going across the runway. I can't imagine not having done a fly over. I'm positive the has been more than one aircraft damaged landing because of it.

    Fort Parker was a short runway, and the approach over the trees when heading south make it even shorter. I flew approaches twice and decided it was safer to abort the landing, so I headed back to Mesquite International.
