I will be staying in a Geelong hotel with the rest of the crew so if anyone wants to stay we could probably make room.

While the fighters are very impwessive, all they prove is that if you put enough power onto it, you can make anything fly.

 

Now, I prefer the finess of an aerobatic glider doing silent aerobatics with an inverted pass under a streamer for a finale'. Or the precision of Bob Hoover and his unpowered demonstration in a big twin. Or the skill of a Waco driver who can taxi the whole length of the runway with his tail up and execute a 360 ground loop without putting his tail down. Or the formation aerobatics of the Southern Knights. Now that's real flying....

I have heard so many stories/versions of this from people who saw it. Wish I had been there :frown:

I will not be attending avalon due to an international commitment. I look forward to hearing how it went and seeing some photos.
