Griffinx2 Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Hey folks new to this forum but not so new to Aviation, i am a GA pilot that went against the flow and went down weight categories to RA and am absolutely loving it. I fly mainly out of the Oaks and Camden
Guest Darren Masters Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Welcome, think I have met you several years ago at The Oaks?
Griffinx2 Posted November 21, 2011 Author Posted November 21, 2011 Welcome, think I have met you several years ago at The Oaks? Probably not me as i have only been flying from the Oaks for about a year, it was probably my old man who has the same story as me but he has been lurking around at The Oaks for a couple of years now. When the weather is good you will usually find one of us around there on weekends.
Guest DWB Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Welcome GRIFFOjr. I'm taking a punt here & going to say I think I know you. Not that that magnificent aircraft in your avatar gives much away. Zephyr's rule!

Dexter Ha Ha id say your punt would probably be fairly correct i figured i would put the jr bit in because the old man probably wont be far behind me. OH and Zephyr's DO RULE!!!
Guest David C Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Welcome Griffo .... I fly out of The Oaks too . You must know Dave the CFI over there . I've been going over there off and on now for about 3 years or so , and love the friendship and general banter we all seem to engage in .. My Uncle Fred is often the centre of attraction over there with his Sonnerai , not so much flying antics more his " I could build one of those in a week " style of things . Hope to see you over there in the not too distant future . You can't miss me , just ask for Pommie Dave !! Dave C
