Thanks Dazza! We reckon aviation should be all-inclusive and that definitely means powerchutes too (we have a particular penchant for powerchute pics incidentally ;0). So post you pics here and the winners will be reproduced in glorious technicolour. The closing date for this month's comp will be Friday 15th October. Sorry it's so soon but hopefully some of you guys will be able to dig out a few high resolution snaps!

And something a little different again, Narromine. Aircraft a Jabiru 120 Piloted by myself - 5317 -

 

 

Can't forget a trike - Airbourne Edge over Inglewood

 

 

Oh, and just something that some may find unique - towing hang gliders up with a Moyes Dragonfly at Inglewood Qld - aircraft located in Dalby, Qld.

Here's one of mine, taken near Tipplers, South Stradbroke Island.

 

Cheers Carl

 

Edit: Oops just read the roolz. Here's the caption " C180, VH-TUV near Tipplers" Going to have to have another closer look at how to get these photos displayed at a decent size, looks miles better.

Very nice Kev, I would battle to decide between 2 and 4 as my favourite - unusual angle, coupled with a moody sky.:thumb_up::thumb_up:

 

 

[Guest kffl60]

Thanks Spin, sometimes it all comes together to make a good picture or two.
