Letitia Posted April 30, 2014 Posted April 30, 2014 See you there Keith (Unless the weather closes in...)! Letitia
Keith Page Posted May 3, 2014 Author Posted May 3, 2014 Hello Letitia, Yes!.. The good old weather dictates a lot to us humans and there are those of us who earn a nick name caused by weather conditions. See you there. Regards Keith Page
Letitia Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 Hey Keith, After looking at the program; looks like its going to be a lot of fun! Plus, it's a good excuse to catch up with everybody that I haven't seen for months :) Letitia
Keith Page Posted May 18, 2014 Author Posted May 18, 2014 Thangool is coming together nicely, was at Thangool last week and measured out the under wing camping -- if the under wing camping area fills everyone will be very proud -- there is truck loads of space. Also there is a special area for the self contained vanners/campers and the usual location for the people who like the comforts and that is with water and power. Looking at the weather """"Bring the Woollies even the Long Johns""""" Sorry forgot to mention bring the port as well. Regards Keith Page

Plus, it's a good excuse to catch up with everybody that I haven't seen for months :) Letitia And for anyone who can't make The Old Station. there's the option of coming along to Thangool just two weeks later. or better still, if you do go to Old Station still come to Thangool to finish that yarn you was having and had to go because you saw someone else you needed to catch up with...

Keith Page Posted May 31, 2014 Author Posted May 31, 2014 Hi All Thangool is starting to buzz with activity and the organising committee has a bounce hence things must be going very well. As for the weather predictions the weather gods look like they are going to be very kind. I had a preview and I was gobbed smacked as to the size of the area for the underwing camping. The forums will be something not to miss, there is even a forum on torque wrenchs. I have heard a wisper one of Brockies cars will be there for all to dribble over and that is not all it is going to have a run.. So come along and have a look. Regards Keith Page. 2

Kyle Communications Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 I would love to be there but just got the girlfriend all sorted last weekend she is running sweet as a peach now and the farm calls this weekend. got to check out the new hangar here at the farm. Its almost finished so have to check it all over incase there is some issues. I will be here so if you can comfortably land in 300 odd metres then feel free to drop in for a cuppa or a rest stop. Will be here for friday and saturday so any Briso's overflying on the way call in .....will be listening on CH26 UHF CB give me a call. Mark
Mick Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 I flew out to Thangool today and the setup is looking great. There was already about a dozen aircraft there when I left at about 3.30pm. Unfortunately other commitments mean I won't be there for the rest of the weekend. Bit of a shame as it looks like it is going to be a great event. I hope you guys that are there will post lots of pics.

Ballpoint 246niner Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 Good one Puk, sorry I couldn't get to this one. Had Tuggie commitments for the gliding club at Watts Bridge this weekend - 32 tows in two days my rights leg has developed Pawnee syndrome. Fly the flag mate. 2
dazza 38 Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 Good one Puk, sorry I couldn't get to this one. Had Tuggie commitments for the gliding club at Watts Bridge this weekend - 32 tows in two days my rights leg has developed Pawnee syndrome. Fly the flag mate. Err, I liked your post Neil, not because you missed Thangoool but because you were flying the Pawnee . If that makes sense.
