Well done Robbo, a well deserved award for all of your efforts in escalating your flying abilities so quickly. I believe a few others achieved bronze today, correct me if I am wrong James B & Simon W...

And breakfast was eagerly snapped up by the hungry hoardes. Many thanks for your efforts & generosity Steve, your gesture is truly appreciated & a fine example of the spirit of our club. Cheers & hoo...

Sorry to ruin the battle of the modes, but has anybody noticed that funny blue stuff overhead with a bright ball in the middle. Willy has forecast more of the same for the next week, hopefully the Lo...

I will be at the field tomorrow with the membership renewal form for paid members to sign. I will take a plane or 2 to fly but if Willy is at all accurate, I wont be there too long (winds 25kph will m...

Nice one Rob, glad to see you have joined the jokers sect of our club.

My congrats Gaz for the maiden flight on Sunday, truly looked magnificent. People unaware that it was a maiden flight would have thought you had dozens of hours of practice on it. A true credit to you...

Mind boggling madness, hope you have thick soles on your boots, will take some stopping

Maiden went reasonably uneventful at Pemac. Ample throttle & lift saw it float effortless up to a good height for trim check & adjustments. At 2/3 throttle it wanted to climb dramatically, rectified...

On my Pat Malone for a short while today until Bob arrived, followed by Jason V shortly after. Good headway was made to fill the remainder of the many wheel ruts. Dribs & drabs more pilots arrived who...

Partial retract from last post, how dare I presume that the ever reliable Pete had not mown. I had presumed that Wednesday night's report of Toongabbie Creek running freely & coming home today in show...

Oops & fixed. Admiration for all builders

Have a great birthday Paul, keep 'em coming, there's room for plenty more birthdays.

Thanks Gazz but just for something different, they are on backorder

Am going to hit a bucket of balls at the driving range this morning. Hope to be at the field 8.30 - 9.00 am to open up. No rain forecast but moderate to strong winds. Forecast 25km wind from 9.00 peak...

Strip soggy but will mow where accessible. Going home now to collect mower.

Dropped into a Penrith fabric shop and they had Bem Silk Lining @ $5.95 per metre, happy to pick it up for you if you tell me how many metres required. White & off white both available.

Sorry to disappoint you Frank, but you missed out on a good day's flying. Wind peaked at approx 15kph but generally under 10kph with a field more than dry enough. Even the regularly puddled areas were...

Looks like only a minimal chance of flying today. My field condition post yesterday reported an already soft runway & was followed by an hour or more of rain that would not heve been able to be absorb...

No probs Gary, I had 1 dud battery for the apprentice and couldn't find the other. Will make adapters for different batteries next week and have it available for a fly. Was going to take you up in the...

Although last Sunday's flights at Penrith were the official maidens of this beast, it's flights at McCoy I feel are more significant because of it's restricted runway length & approach space. Taking ...

17. Planes welcome the pilot into the cockpit as often as they want

Broken Hill is a surprisingly big town, plenty of shops. But flying should improve out of site, there is bugger all else to do out here once you've finished being dragged to all the art galleries & ...

I dont think I will be flying today, have been watching the rain radar for the last hour and areas of medium rain have reached Cabramatta heading north. Out of my southern window I have been watching ...

Field is open & ready for flying

Am presuming from field condition reports that Kelso is out of the question for the weekend. Have had one weekend flying my new T28 and am looking forward to another weekend of flying (thanks to Gaz I...
