Tiger Moth hit by a gust of wind.

Tiger Moth wrecked by non experienced person operating an aircraft I am hearing.

 

Flown over this so called strip, very short, narrow and uneven surrounded by canola.

 

Grumblings going on around here is person has had no flight training whatsoever, guess time will tell if the rumour mill is correct.

Another "Failed Pilot" just having fun doing high speed taxi runs ?. His property or friends.

 

Scared shxxx less of exepting an invite to a private property, only too make a bad impression on the owner or in the dirt.

 

Last invite to use a strip kept only for the Flying Doctor Service, nice well mentained gravel and very long, perfect for another Idiot (ME)

I believe he had 1 lesson I was informed today which counts for 0 when you think of it.
