Tomo Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 Just interested in how many forum members will be at Natfly this yr? I'm certainly hoping I will be able to somehow...
Admin Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 Naturally I will be there and this will be the first year I will be bringing Corrine and the kids as well. Have been ordering up a lot of "stuff" to have there for the shop, will have a huge tent with plenty of chairs for site members to sit back and have a yarn and meet each other, Corrine will be doing manicures and nails etc for the ladies so bring them along - while they are being pampered you can be off looking at planes ;) - trying to make it a real family and fun get together for all Recreational Flying site members. Oh, and we are directly opposite Jabiru so if you can stand the site of looking out over Jabirus then don't forget to drop in and use our tent as a base

Captain Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 Only the weather will keep me away on Thur/Fri & Sat
slartibartfast Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 Ditto. I'll be on the Morgan stand right next to the Rec Flying tent. Keeping an eye on the lurking within tent. I crack me up.
Ausmo Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Dragging myself along kicking and screaming - NOT! Erik :thumb_up:
Jabiru Phil Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Loxton- Narromine via Hay or Ivanhoe on the Thursday-Sunday 5135. Jab. Then onto Caloundra for some R&R. Hope to catch up with some of you guys for a chin wag. Admin tent seems a good choice. Cheers, Phil.
facthunter Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Attendance. Sadly , won't make it this year. Have a Good time you blokes ( and Gals) Nev.
Guest pecram air Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Yep I will be flying out again this year Phil C
Captain Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 I sooooo want to go. Damn work. Come on shags. It's Easter and YNRM is just a stones throw from your joint. Give work a flick, put on that pink bunny suit that you have in the wardrobe for special occasions, and hop on down ... just for a day if needs be. I'm a Doctor (of Phylosophy ................. well I shoot the breeze about a lot of useless stuff), so do you maybe want a Medical Certificate? Ditto. I'll be on the Morgan stand right next to the Rec Flying tent. Keeping an eye on the lurking within tent. I crack me up. Ross. Will you have the green version on display? And who will keep an eye on you while you watch all us lurkers? Regards Geoff
eastmeg2 Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Am hoping to fly there again this year and hoping for better conditions than last year, when: 1. Managed to take off from our private strip at dawn before the wind reached the ground and immediately found 20kt NW headwind at 200ft AGL. 2. Due to the headwind had to divert to Parkes for some Avgas for the 912. That's the only time I've fed it that stuff. 3. Rain got into the tent at Narromine, wetting my GPS which thankfully lasted for the 200Nm flight home but died promptly afterwards. 4. Dodged a whole lot of bad weather on the way back to Goulburn. It was like flying through a cloud-lined tunnel of sunshine. LUCKY 5. At least my Punkinhead covers kept the cockpit of the trike dry and the Screwit Tie-Downs did their job. Can't wait to do it all again !!!

planedriver Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 I'll be there. Have been wanting to attend for the past few years but never made it. This year i've told all my friends to show some consideration and not die, get married, hold christenings, or hold divorce party's. Looking forward to meeting many of the members. Kind Regards Planey
