As
speculated by Garrett, Mick and the Saturday crew,
Sunday turned out to be a great day’s flying.
|
|
|
|
With Duty
instructor David Higgs, instructor Mick Moloney, AEI
Lindsay Mitchell myself as duty pilot and Trevor Mills
flying the Pawnee, we were ready for the days flying
operations.
|
|
|
|
Students
Dean Nicolle and Dave Crocker showed up to continue
their training and Chris Weir was at the airfield
bright and early to take friend Anne for a mid-morning
soar.
|
|
|
|
Flying
commenced from runway 12 with Chris and Anne first off
the mark at 1013, Mick and David kept busy with
training flights in Yankee Kilo whilst I organised
myself a check flight in CQC followed by a sneaky solo
straight after.
|
|
|
|
Kevin Rodda
showed up in the “orange thingy” around 1200 to
take to the skies, only to end up back on the ground
10 mins later!! Slightly disappointed Kev re-launched
straight away and managed to achieve the flight of the
day at 2hr 35min.
|
|
|
|
David Higgs
and Dean Nicolle wrapped up the days flying with some
aerobatics in CQC, ultimately introducing Dean to
loops etc as he’ll be doing a few in Tamworth for
military flight screening in 3 weeks!! Good luck
Dean.
|
|
|
|
All in all
a brilliant day at YCAB.
|
|
|
|
Many thanks
to the duty crew for the days efforts. And a personal
thanks to Lindsay for taking flight times whilst the
duty pilot took to the skies.
