rocket1172 Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 To all aviators in the know!:big_grin: Does anyone know of any hangar oppportunities or have any contacts for the following locations: Bacchus Marsh, Ballarat, Melton, Kyneton. Or any private strips that may be of interest? Thank-you Neil for Terry's number regarding Penfield hangar space!! Thanks all. Rod.
djpacro Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 As you were so kind with your comments about the Pitts - I'll make some enquiries of my friends and PM you (will ask for that person in Qld too). The Pitts was at Kyneton, spent summer in Qld and is now in NSW!
brilin_air Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Rod. There may be a couple of hangars looking for tenants in Bacchus Marsh. Let me know if I can help. -Linda
rocket1172 Posted March 15, 2011 Author Posted March 15, 2011 Hi Linda, I would be very keen on a Bacchus Marsh hangar, seeing I live close by. (Darley) I don't have an aircraft yet, but am planning on aquiring one very soon, hopefully by Easter. Any help from you will be very much appreciated. Thanks. Rod. P.S. would be good to know some local flyers also.
brilin_air Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Hi Rod! You need to come up and visit and have a cuppa, and let us show you our awesome airport and have a tour. You fly a gazelle I gather atm? Is that the yellow one up at Ballarat? Need to get you into a Jab....:)
rocket1172 Posted March 16, 2011 Author Posted March 16, 2011 Always up for a cuppa. People used to ask me how did we spray crops at night, and my answer was "coffee!!" Yes, the little yellow one at Ballarat, nicknamed "Tweety". Let me know when you guys will be out there and I will see if I can get out there. I have been known to drive around there and have a sticky beak! Thanks, Rod.
brilin_air Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Rod. We will actually be up at the airport tomorrow (Thursday) night about 5.30-6.00pm. Brian is doing some work up there, so if you want to come up and say Hi! we will be around. -Linda
matt walsh Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 Hi Rod, I'm the co-owne,r with Neil Sidwell, of a blue Gazelle 3478 which is hangared at Penfield. Do you use a local LAME for your 100hy/anual inspection and regular maintenence/repairs and if so would apprreciate details. Cheers Matt Walsh
rocket1172 Posted March 17, 2011 Author Posted March 17, 2011 Hi Matt, do not actually own a plane yet but am in the hunt for one. But if you do find the details you are after, I would be keen to share the info as I am researching my future purchase at this time. Thanks, Rod.
rocket1172 Posted March 17, 2011 Author Posted March 17, 2011 Hi Linda, please keep me updated as to when you guys will be at the airport. I was busy tonight, but would like to catch up with you guys soon. let me know if you will be there on the weekend. Just a query on hangar rates out there? Thanks, Rod
brilin_air Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 Hi Rod! Sorry you couldn't make it out there tonight. We are often out at the airport, tomorrow we are off for a bit to Maryborough then back home. Saturday at this stage if it's nice, we are off again somewhere. About 3 ish tomorrow we will be off, then back before dark (of course!) Saturday, whatever takes our fancy. Ours is the green hangar on the Northern boundry of the airport, just go past the flying school and keep to the outside road, you will see it. Are you after hangarage rates? Everybody seems to pay about $50 roughly a week, for rent. -Linda
