Bob1957 Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 I have been following the progress of a guy called Jerry here is his website hope you all find it as interesting as I have.www.overdownunder.com.au:hug:
WestCoast Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 Thanks for the 'heads up' Bob......my wife and I were out walking yesterday morning and saw him flying south over the Perth beaches at about 500 ft. We wondered who it was and now we know! Regards, Dave
Guest brentc Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 There was a thread on here a while ago about Jerry's trip, but it hasn't been updated for a while. Good to hear that he is in Perth as he has suffered quite a few delays (some of them regulatory).
Guest David C Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 I had the great pleasue of meeting up with Jerry some months ago at Hoxton Park during the early stages of his around Australia flight . He is a great bloke who deserves much recognition for his determination in the face of adversity . He has received very little support and almost no publicity for his efforts , Radio 3AW in Melbourne being an exception . I and other tried desperately to get the media , particularly Ch7 in Sydney to run some footage , but we met a brick wall .. I urge all to log on to his site and keep tabs on his progress , and if you can, take the time to say G'day to him if you have the opportunity . He is truly an inspiration , and has overcome great barriers to get this far .. Dave C
