Cosmick Posted December 16, 2013 Posted December 16, 2013 The picture wasn't upside down on the ipad when I posted ??? but it will do so now that's me on the right.
Kyle Communications Posted December 16, 2013 Posted December 16, 2013 Just amazing what these savannah's can do 1
Guest Maj Millard Posted December 16, 2013 Posted December 16, 2013 Does Wallsend field still exist Maj, or is it under suburbia like so many? Well it was still operating when we visited about a month and a half ago.....quite a few hangars and lots of aircraft within, and some flying happening. Suburbia was visible just across the road though..A great little field that should be allowed to remain. It reminded me of some I had seen in similar circumstances in California around SF and LA areas..........Maj....
Cosmick Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Hey Ian, The pic is upside down on PC but right way up on iPhone.

Bryon Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Okay Maj. I give up. Where perzacly is this Wallsend field? Google Earth, Wallsend NSW (west of Newcastle, then go directly north of Name place, single part bitumen, part grass/gravel strip and 3 hangars)
Old Koreelah Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Thanks for that Byron. Your directions got me there, but I couldn't find it in ERSA or on the Newcastle VNC. Who owns it and what is it's status? I am pleasantly surprised that it exists. Our kid moved to Newcastle last year and we commute there regularly, but I couldn't find a strip within cooey of their place at Charlestown. 1
Guest Maj Millard Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 OK, it is a locked- gate private field, we visited there twice whilst at the recent Rathmines seaplane convention, both times at the invite of various dealers who met us at the gate to look at their aircraft...I know the Airborne, Quicksilver, and Flysynthesis dealers base there. I don't know who you would contact re operating there though, great little airfield and I heard there were plans to erect two new hangars which would suggest some degree of permancy for the future ?.......Maj....

Keenaviator Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Mmmmmm, say thats a nice Maton ! There's a bit of a story behind that guitar. I was about 10 years old when my uncle bought it at Allans in Melbourne. My dad bought an accordian and his brother bought that guitar. On my 50th birthday he presented it to me to 'look after'. Awesome! 3

skeptic36 Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 New Revo Bill No mate, I know it's pathetic that I cheated like that, but I had to get 1 up on you and I don't have any friends to pose with me 1
Keenaviator Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 No Any idea of current value ?.................Maj.... Not really but certainly worth looking after and a great heirloom. Laurie
