Old Koreelah Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 We have been warned! YQDI Aero Club will definitely be on the lookout for dodgy looking gate crashers. We will send out scouts and post sentries lest your dangerous-looking mob breach our perimeter. 2 4

flyerme Posted May 5, 2015 Author Posted May 5, 2015 Does it fire wooden bullets? No I just make machine gun noises... Seems to scare them off! 1 1
SDQDI Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 Ask any aviation buff and they will back a 'hornet' over a Nieuport No need to get technical as to which hornet..... Would be awesome to see you if you made it up this way Flyerme:thumb up: (The second sat of each month in case anyone has missed it, not that I'm advertising or anything:happy:) I doubt you will run out of places that will welcome you, what an awesome idea. 2 1
facthunter Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 Bigger than Ben Hur . (with better chariots). Good luck for the show. Nev 2 1
bexrbetter Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 Does it fire wooden bullets? Flyerme just recently proved he doesn't fire blanks .... 1 1 4
Marty_d Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 Flyerme just recently proved he doesn't fire blanks .... If he managed to fire those ones from his Nieuport then he's a better man than me!
Bryon Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 I didnt think there wasenough room in a Nieuport for that sort of thing 1
bexrbetter Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 I didn't think there was enough room in a Nieuport for that sort of thing My first car was a Datsun 1000 Coupe ...... I'll say no more. 3
bexrbetter Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 It would have to be the 1,000ft high club. I'm a Member. Solo division. 1 3
flyerme Posted May 6, 2015 Author Posted May 6, 2015 Could be a busy year. Hope the WX gods are taking note! Loxton Nhill. Oct 10 Benalla Unconfirmed :suggestions Murray bridge RPA murray bridge LAF Lamaroo mallee micro lights Lamaroo. Kevin Gyro's Aldinga Strathalbyn Brooklands Meningie Karoonda-DC Goolwa Gawler Hind marsh island Rowland flat Clare valley Swanreach Kangaroo island Pinnaroo Also would like my own get together at some point ,my thoughts and ideas on this are: A get together at x strip for the day, BBQ and flying activities/competitions. I find there's not enough actual activities once at destination (if any)so let's make a day full of trophy/ ribbon award winning activities and alike...... -spot landing , furtherest distance flown, best looking plane per catorgory , flower bombing( if still allowed?). Smoothest landing,PLEASE MORE SUGGESTIONS HERE. Also we could have a safari day : were we will go out with a map and clues ( fuel/ground crew will be needed) More details to come As mentioned all this will be filmed for my documentary project aimed at promoting our sport and getting new young blood involved... I will also be publicly promoting our events through regular media, social media, advertising and word of mouth. So please get involved we need everyone's support. "The Great JACK FLYER Gate Crash 2015" 1 1
flyerme Posted May 6, 2015 Author Posted May 6, 2015 For those interstaters. Need some motivation to get out this way? A trike pilot all the way in Perth has confirmed involvement, if he can't find time to tow his trike across he will fly commercial and take a spare PAX seat for an event or 2... Love it. 1 1
flyerme Posted May 6, 2015 Author Posted May 6, 2015 Tim HeylbutImagination always in overdrive,Another suggestion I'm thinking. And it May be a first? And is a bit out there- Is a costume/ dress up day. Yeh that'll take some out of there comfort zone,! All good for us eccentric weirdoes whom dress up in ww-1 costume to go down the street .. Lol. Could go random dress up! Dress up to reflect your plane! Dress up to plane era Eg: have a plane called umm I don't know... Say ...flappy Bird! Well surly a chicken suit would be appropriate?;). Have a plane with missing spatt? A pirate she be With eye patch....fly a trike! Could dress up as NASA space man - you know the wing history ...... could be really fun ( awards given of coarse). Media would have field day. What are your thought on this? You keen? 2
Deskpilot Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Please let me know when you intend to 'gate crash' Aldinga. Meet you there. 1

Jabiru Phil Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Good idea Tim, Keep in touch with your itinerary. I will let our members know of your plans. Third Sunday is the official bbq to tie in with Renmarks breakfast, but we have one weekly anyway. Phil 1
bexrbetter Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 I'm not seeing Hobart on the itinerary Tim. It's not an International Tour silly. 1 2
facthunter Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 That penal colony has a moat..sp? around it with waves and bitey things in it to keep the felons from escaping. It also impedes mainlanders in flimsy slow little planes with a sense of self preservation, from flying there. ( And we haven't even mentioned the DEVILS). Nev 3
Marty_d Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 ... to keep the felons from escaping... Escape is now possible with the assistance of a Virgin. (Or Qantas/Jetstar). This wasn't the case in the old days, as virgins were in short supply. 5
flyerme Posted May 8, 2015 Author Posted May 8, 2015 11 aircraft confirmed so far and progressing....... I have some very unique events/competitions planned. So come on all. We now have 1 confirmed from WA. And 2 from Vic 1 volunteer ground crew Every one is welcome, wanted and needed. Heads up. 1 of events - Plan to gate crash a BBQ in costumes ;). Lol. 1 1
