BigPete Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 Nice day here in Echuca. Refuel the Jabiru and off to Swan Hill. (with LittlePete (grandson)) Swan Hill is a great little airport. :thumb_up: It's one of the few that have a decent "back yard" to explore. Lots of trees for shade. A few old buildings and hangers to look at. A very "tropical?" i_dunno passenger terminal (see photo) and the home of Sun Centre Ultralights where Cliff Banks waves his magic wand and repairs/rebuilds wounded Jabiru's and other lesser aircraft. Drop in and visit Cliff anytime (usually) Monday to Thursday. Coffee's free and so's the expert information. As I was departing Swan Hill, a Jabiru J120 arrived (I think it was the Horsham one, but not sure) WITH THE SAME REGO AS MINE! :ah_oh: Well - almost. Mine is 4535 - this one was 5354 - how cool (freaky) is that! regards :big_grin::big_grin:
planedriver Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 Looks like a great day out to me, and I bet LittlePete loved it! All that fun while I was working hard. Where's the justice in this world?i_dunnoi_dunnoi_dunno
Kaz Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 Is little Pete still with you for this weekend?
BigPete Posted September 25, 2008 Author Posted September 25, 2008 LittlePete will be here on Saturday Kaz, supposed to go home on Sunday, but my daughter finds it hard to go and often prolongs her visit! We sometimes run a bet on it! :ah_oh::big_grin: regards :big_grin::big_grin:
markendee Posted September 25, 2008 Posted September 25, 2008 Big Pete, Haven't yet visited Cliffy. Will do soon. Sounds like a good day for the Petes. Regards, Mark. PS Heard a whisper you have been doing some STOL stuff recently - well done.
