Dam straight Kev But I will be flying on 3S to start with. The videos show it haulin the mail on 3S with a simple under arm hand launch. I reconif I want to run it on 4S i will have to up the anti on...

No probs mate, Fridays good for me. Should be there about 3 pm.

I joined Dave and Kev this morning, needed to get some circuits in. The strip is definatley ok and is probably almost firm enough to mow. it is not ready for large aircraft with wheels though. The b...

A big thanks for mowing the runways Steve. Very much appreciated. Just hope we can get into the place. If its just a case of moving a safety rope it should be no biggie. My DW is dying for a fly. (...

Field is spot on Steve. You could mow the strip, but you would be a pedantic prick if you did. Iv'e flown every day this week and only the smallest wheels about would have any issues, the strip reall...

If its not raining on Saturday, I'm flying, but our field will need to recover for another week at least before it can cope with medium to large aircraft... and I plan on maidening my Deuces Wild this...

Well lets hope the weather guru's have got it right.. FOR ONCE.... because that outook is the best rainfall forecast I've seen in 2 years.

Thats great news. I have my Trimmer in the back of the van as well because Kev is meeting me to attack some of the thick stuff, but by the looks of things I will be able to do the strip as the rest is...

Yep thanks for the update Chris. Sad news.... looks like its another drive to PEMAC.

I am planning on dropping by to maiden my big Rare Bear tomorrow Steve, weather permitting of course, I finally got the replacement retracts from HK, so I will throw the mower in as well, I should be ...

OK Kev you bought your ticket Welcome to the hit list..................Just remember you can run but you cant hide Be very careful during flight..... my aircraft are expendable...... ARE YOURS ??? ...

Just got home from work and stopped by the field for a walk around prior to the weekend. The news is all good. The cross strip is sweet as, the main strip has 2 of the usual low spots that are just a...

Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit. You are charging your batteries so you can enjoy the hobby you love, bloody hell, is everybody else as frustrated/annoyed as I am with this rediculous weather. (being ...

I will be going to Penrith tomorrow if the weather conditions remain this good. I will post in the morning just before leaving, which will be about 8 am.

I can't make it today... stuck at work with isues!!! Have you got any details on the mower Frank? Where is "up the road"? Can you get:- Make, Model, Age, Cut diameter, Physical size/ dimensions et...

Yeh come on Steve, no half hearted reports can we fly at McCoy tomorrow or what? Gazz By the way, you guys missed an awsome day at Wisemans.

Pete You must have missed me by about 3 minutes. I left at about 3.40 after having 2 flights of my new Stuka. I agree, the field does look pretty good. The whole thing needs a good haircut though....

Yes I am Kev and a rake!

Did anyone get a chance to give the strip a mow!

My words and thoughts are a lot stronger than "bugger" but that will suffice.

We can get the strip sorted first mate. I will have a fly when the work is done. Mower is in the van, see you there!

Im pretty sure your dead right there Steve I had a walk around the field on the way home from work today just before the rain and it was still a soggy bog. Cant see it recovering untill we get a full...

Look out you windows..... go on ....look! Its 6.45 Saturday morning and not a single cloud in the frigin sky. Now.... mother nature is rubbing our noses in it..... BITCH!

Has anyone checked out the field? I guess it will be in a pretty poor state after all this rain?

You got that in one "sunshine" pardon the pun, a little rain we have had. Now it just needs to "piss off"!!! so we can have a great weekends flying.

Looks like we might need to have a little working bee and get ALL of the other club members involved. We don't ask much after all, so I think we might need to get everyone down to the field as soon as...

Excellent work Steve Thanks for the effort!

Indeed, a big thanks to all those that came down to the field for this afternoons working bee, Kev and I attack the mulga and started building a new cross strip, early days yet but it looks prommising...

Thanks for the field update Steve Im sure I just like everybody else in the club is sick to death of this infernal weather. I will be flying tomorrow from 8.30 (WEATHER PERMITTING) See you all ther...

Thats the best news we've heard in a few weeks.

I droped by the field today on the way home from work to check out how the strip faired after last nights deluge, because I wanted to maiden my new Sukhoi 50. I am happy to report that although the s...

I recon the field will be well and trully swimming by the weekend Steve if it isnt already... forecast is for more rain over the next 4 days.

I was about to pack the mower and head down to give you a hand Steve, but the sky has gone black and its making lots of rumbling sounds... it doesn't look good at all... so you will be Robinson Crusoe...

Looks like I'm off to Penrith again... see ya

The strip is in dire need of a good trim, I hope to give it the once over on Friday afternoon around 3.30, If anyone else has the time to assist please post and let me know. I will post Friday aftern...

Well done guys, I'm sure I speak for all the club members in passing on appreciation and thanks for your efforts. Gazz

I have just arrived home from work and it did not stop absolutely bucketing down all the way home. The field will be a no go for this weekend. Might try and get a fly in out west on Sunday.

It needed a mow 2 weeks ago Steve, but I'm just being pedantic, sort of guy I am, Thanks for the update though mate, appreciate it.

Thanks for the update Steve, all be it sad news!

Thanks for the update Chris. STEVE any chance you could give me a heads up on the field condition? I recon the heat today should have just about fried the field good and proper, even if you don't le...

Sorry I couldn't get down to help out today men, I had an ISSUE at work and didn't get out of the place till after 6pm.

The field is fine Steve. I just got home from a great morning fly with a few other members. The big hole opposite the pilots box has a bit of standing water and a few small spots on the strip are da...

Nice work as always Steve. Seems everytime you hit the field lately, I am unable to help due to work commitments. I'm sure all the club members appreciate your support ... and if they don't... I am ...

Once again, a big thanks on behalf of the club for the effort put in this afternoon by Steve M and Steven L. Well done guys.

Has anyone per chance dropped by the field to see what state it is in for the weekend? I want to maiden my Seagull Super Tucano and will have to go out to PEMAC if the strip isn't in great shape.

I mowed as much of the field as I could this morning. Ive done the heli area the pits and the taxi way which are all in pretty good shape now they have had a mow. I also mowed as large an area as I c...

Yes indeed, thanks Steve, I would come and help, but I dont have the luxury of 26 weeks holidays a year working (and I use that term loosely) in a capitalist tyranical draconian teaching job........ g...

Can I use a really big feather?

Droped in to the field this morning to test fly my new Katana. It was to windy. However those of you that liked the long grass around the strip for gentle padded landing will be dissapointed. The c...

Big thanks to Mr Barnes for helping me destroy the jungle between the runway, taxiway, carpark and heli training area today. The Uber mower really earned its keep. Took almost 3 hours to rip down the ...
