Fun... I used to have that... before the old maiden aunts got control of the country.

 

After reading the bit about what David C has to take with him in his aeroplane to Temora, I wouldn't be game to buy a flying boat. It'd be overloaded with the bookwork and cost a fortune to replace if it got wet.

 

Hell, for my PPL navex in a Chippy, I took a map a little notebook with important stuff like, Moorabbin Tower is channel A on the five crystal wireless set, Melbourne aeradio is channel B and Esssendon is channel C.

 

Them’s were the days. One three hour dual nav, then a solo three hour nav and that was it. Free to go and get lost when you passed your hour or so's PPL flying check in the training area and circuit.

 

The couple of hundred mile range stopped us getting REAL lost.
