Hi Doug I fly from Truro Flats (many years) and recently from Gawker where the Morgan Sierra is based. We've probably met at a Truro Flats fly-in, I'm the guy with the radio. Alan Marriette.
Guernsey Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 Sorry about the Gawker, it should have read Gawler. Alan.
Deskpilot Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 Gawker, Gawler, Truro Flats............never been to any of them so doubt that we've met, radio or not.
