griffo Posted March 8, 2008 Posted March 8, 2008 G'day guys and gals, I sort of 'stumbled' on this forum, and although I am yet to take my first "Rec" aircraft flight, I do have lots of experience over many years in those 'other' powered aircraft. I am retired now, having worked in aviation in some form or another all of my working life, still hold a current licence and like to 'dabble'.... I live in Perth, and sometimes get up to Northam where there is an active Recreational group, which I thought might keep me off the streets for a while. So, I look forward to reading your various posts, sharing some ideas, and generally keeping active in the industry, and am looking forward to my first flight in what is to me, a new type of aircraft. (I just may be able to afford to do this more than the VH- type of flying - at least the fuel costs should be more affordable....yes?) Happy Landings...
BigPete Posted March 8, 2008 Posted March 8, 2008 Griffo - get your bum into a "recreational" aircraft (as a passenger or pilot) and find out why we are always grinning. :big_grin::big_grin::big_grin: Welcome to the Forums (we fly for FUN!) :thumb_up: regards
griffo Posted March 9, 2008 Author Posted March 9, 2008 Thankyou Sir... Thanks 'Big Pete' for the response....and the welcome!!:thumb_up: I haven't been over your way for ages - I did ferry a couple of C152's over to the West many years ago and overflew ECH at a rather 'low' level due headwinds. (Just 'skirted' the town area so as not to annoy anybody...) The river with the early morning mists looked nice. Lotsa w i d e o p e n s p a c e s out there..... Cheers
