ianwells Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 Hi Deb and Ralph Julie and I will certainly be attending the splash in, weather permitting. We have just christened our new 701 on amphibious floats so this will be the first trip away with it. There should be a fair few others from the Whitsundays heading down including a Searay a Supper Petrel and a couple of Lightwings. We will try and give firm figures closer to the day. Looking forward to a great weekend cheers Ian 5
ianwells Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 We've just had BOB the 701 on floats at Starke airfield for the Easter fly in, so we are now planning the trip down for the Lake Barambah splash in. hope to see many other seaplanes there. Just after our arrival at Starke, quite a few well known NQ aviators in this picture!!!! 1
Kyle Communications Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 I just tried emailing Ralph and Deb and it keeps bouncing so not sure if the email is working or not

Ballpoint 246niner Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 Hi Deb, I'll be there Sat for the fun, day only. Great weather bodes well for a fantastic weekend
M61A1 Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 All going well There'll be two of us for Saturday lunch.
Graham Pukallus Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 Great venue, food and something completely different with sea planes including the famous Millard landing and taking off on the dam. Over 30 planes including 6 seaplanes, by 2pm Saturday with more expected. Unfortunately we could only have the aircraft for the day, but had a great time as I am sure everyone else did. Enormous effort by Ralph and Deb and there many helpers, very well done. Can't wait to return to this magical spot next year. Great to meet so many flyers, and soak in the atmosphere. Here are some shots of our day, no doubt there will be a lot more coming from others that stopped for the weekend. Regards Graham and Val. 4 1
ianwells Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 Graham, Val and M61A1, Thanks for putting up the photos of the splash in, We should have been there and will try to make it next year. regards Ian
