I have an unmaidened Dynam T28 Trojan, you can borrow if you want. I can bring down to Field if let know this evening.
I won't be down otherwise due to crashing my NEW Apprentice today badly, Had great fun doing it though, Thanks Wayne.
That is very kind of you Russell, but I simply couldn't bring myself to risk your plane - I'm nervous enough already, just thinking about the test itself
The FunCub is technically mine, sort of. I built it a year ago for my dad, who has since drifted to other hobbies. The plane has been collecting dust at my parents' place ever since. I grabbed it during the afternoon and I'm adjusting the flaps as I type this.
Sorry to hear about your Apprentice. I can relate to crashing. Being self-taught, I totaled three planes (first one was a scratch-built balsa glider) before I pulled off something that might be called a "landing". Only pigheadedness kept me going.
Nowadays I see crashes as a bit of an opportunity to upgrade, and I've generally decided on a replacement even before the tears are dry

Tomorrow I'm off to Appin for the electric day down there. I do apologise this is my mistake I should have read your post more thoroughly.
I'm sure there will be someone there tomorrow who can do it for you, but if not and you get stuck give a call and we can organise to meet one afternoon during the week. 0421 994 596
No problem at all Jason. It'll give me a chance to get to know the FunCub a bit first, and perhaps there'll be another instructor there tomorrow. If not, December has only just started. No huge hurry.
Enjoy the day at Appin
