Last weekend at the 50th Anniversary of Antiques Aeroplanes Association in Corowa, NSW. ~150 aircrafts attended the Fly-in. Great event, lots of activities, fun.. Camping under the wing - Priceless !

Great news djpacro, Any more information, eg. when and where? Thanks

This pilot was practicing glide approach day after day, but unfortunately wasn't ready for engine failure after takeoff. https://youtu.be/22OfCmHfCSY?si=1m6mZvTB8RZdKMJZ&t=220s

I suggest doing a session of full-stop landings. Lots of flying ccts are spent on Touch&Go's where student's can make it perfect, but some will fail with full-stops. Assuming "flaring high" is the issue, just before takeoff roll stop for ~10 sec and pay close attention on the ground, runway edges, features. Expect the same picture when you land. If non controlled aerodrome, you may want to join instructor (or responsible person) to walk and inspect the runway. Windsock might be another reference point. Don't initiate flare if at the top level or above. Keep coming down. Where to look: generally eyes to the end of runway, however you don't need to look that far to "turn on" peripheral vision. Try an exercise when driving a car. Look at the broken lines where they becoming continuous, then look what you see on the sides, how far is curb, gravel, etc..

There is no magic pill to guarantee successful flying/landings. As with anything, don't give up! If it takes 6, 7, 10 go arounds, let it be, but don't give up. Thats why are you here today, not giving up and well done for that ! Try writing down on a paper circuit proceure, what exactly do you do, where do you look, at what point in circuit, write to details and discuss with instructor. Yes, it will be different picture and circuit altitudes when flying to another aerodrome, but write for your aerodrome. Speeds, flaps, prelanding checks, posistions should be the same for any aerodrome. Once you discuss, do armchair flying. It is like Damped Sinusoidal curve, there are ups and downs, but eventually it settles. Practice is the key. General rule is: fly balanced, especially in turns, keep the ball in the centre and nose on (or slightly below) horizon. Ball is your primary instrument in turns, but don't be focused on one thing only. Keep flying!

Congrats! I've heard rebate is applicable to transponder only, not av30 ? Can you please confirm. Also how many working hours ($) for installation? Ballpark figure is fine 🙂 Thanks!

Short answer - Yes. -
Welcome to the forum ! I see some similarities with Giles 202 aerobatic aircraft, except your aircraft has smaller rudder, or the photo could be misleading. Curious what are the spin characteristics ? As with anything in the World, if the price is right, there will be buyers. Cheers & Good luck!

Meanwhile Airbus a350 burns to ashes within 20mins on the ground whilst several firetrucks are trying to extinguish it. What Rate of Descent a pilot need to set from 39000ft in case some bad lithium battery decide to burn?
