Heon,

 

Any chance of beating the weather by coming a day earlier and returning later? It sounds too good an opportunity to pass by.

Comming early not the problem as this was allready planned to try the north coast rivers on way down.

 

Getting back is. Have to be back for Monday and Elders weather currently lists Warwick, Lismore, Coffs Harbour and Newcastle as 80% chance of rain on Sunday. Makes it hard to get over the Great Divide, and to get around Newcastle and especially Coffs Harbour controlled airspace...we KNOW it's too unsafe to let a RA Aus pilot fly up the coast...it's MUCH safer to make you fly over tiger country, ESPECIALLY with the low cloud you would expect with a 80% chance of rain!

 

Rearly want to be there but I also want to be a (much) older pilot.

 

Will be watching the weather real close before departure (if departing).
