Phil Perry Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Hi Guys ,N,Gals. . . . My very good friend Peter Martin is driving around Australia on vacation with his family, and is currently staying in Brisbane until next Tuesday. . . . I was wondering if any my forum friends could take him up for a bit of a flip along the coast whilst he's there, I mean,. . .OZ looks so much better from the air dunnit . . .? ? ? Peter is our webmaster ( othertonairfield.co.uk and flies with his brother from our airfield, he will be starting flight training very soon, but has quite a bit of time as a passenger with Brother Glenn in his Skyranger, and buying a plane with Glenn later on. . . He knows more about computers and communications than anyone else that I've ever met. . . . .and for a Pom. . . (! ).he really IS a nice guy. ) If any of you can take him for a blast, I'd be very grateful, and I would be willing to pay for the fuel costs if you PM me. ( This bloke has fixed my office network and computers more times than I can mention. . . . . I only wish I'd known about his Aussie trip a little sooner. . . .) If anyone can help, please let me know. After Tuesday, he will be driving on down to the Sydney area, and then on to gawd knows where. . . . . . ! His UK mobile number is +44 7971 058 201 ( that's the number I'm using for texts anyhow. . .) Kind regards Phil P

Kyle Communications Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Crap weather here in Brisbane this weekend Phil thats the only problem. He must have bought the cold blast with him it going to be 7 degC in the morning here...thats outrageous for here

If so, weather permiting, I could take him up if he`s happy to go up in the Drifter. No money required. Let me know. Frank.
bexrbetter Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Phil if/when he gets near Adelaide I can organise a bit of a tour and stay at historic Goolwa. https://www.google.com.hk/search?newwindow=1&safe=strict&es_sm=93&q=goolwa%20south%20australia&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hl=zh-CN&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=EH5kU7KOF8L-8QXlu4GACw
Phil Perry Posted May 3, 2014 Author Posted May 3, 2014 A rare opportunity to help a MATE of Phil Perry eh? Nev Not for any other reason than we "Do" a similar thing for visiting foreign enthusiasts too Nev,. . . also,. . . I joked about this briefly via text, and said I'd try and "BLAG" him a ride !! He's following the coast down from Cairns to Sydney as far as I know, but since he spends quite a bit of time on airfield business over here,. . . , I think his missus might get a bit cranky if he starts mumbling about airplane rides whilst on vacation ! ! ! ! Anyhow, it appears from your reports that the WX is really horrible for flying or anything in SEQ at the moment,. . . .Phil . . . .
Kyle Communications Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Its not horrible...really blustery winds from the west and a cold front going over...not nice flying weather

I've looked at the Goolwa pictures and it looks really good, I think Pete is in Adelaide at this time, so I've sent him a message to get in touch, might even try him on bookface too,. . . thanks for that.
