Guest Mad Dave Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 Might be woth a look. Ashamed to say I live about 10 mins away by car, and have never even been there for a sticky beak. One of my mates trained there though.
hihosland Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 Is there fuel available at either Coldstream or Lillydale?
hihosland Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 Thanks Dave. I should have asked the full question Mogas? BP Card avgas? Shell card Avgas? cheers Davidh
Guest Ken deVos Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 Is there fuel available at either Coldstream or Lillydale? AvGas is available at Coldstream with credit card. MoGas if you're very quick in the car park.
Guest Mad Dave Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 Lilydale Airport is a Fixed Base Operator and can provide everything a visitor arriving by air needs: * AVGAS payment by cash, cheque or credit card/EFTPOS (no carnet) Cheers, Dave
Simonflyer Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 Ive got to sit my XC prac test tomorrow..Maybe if i pass, that can be my first day out on my own..I might pick up dad at Lilydale, head to tooradin to get a coffee and some fresh seafood, then head back to coldstream for a look, then back home..:thumb_up: I just gotta pass the bloody thing!
Guest Mad Dave Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 Simonflyer, It looks like the weather should behave itself for you anyhow. Just remember to double check everything when you are planning, and you'll be right! (Your instructor is bound to put a "booby trap" or two in there for you. Dave
Simonflyer Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 Thanks Dave... And yep there already have been a few curve balls and the trip hasnt started!
Guest Ken deVos Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 Woooow, must have lost the thread in an air pocket.... SimonFlyer, I hope the XC flight test goes, or went well and that you & your dad can make it to Colds. I am sure Nathan or Sue would have plenty of encouragement and advice if you do make the trip.
Simonflyer Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 Thanks for the support guys.. Passed the test this arvo, so feeling good.Dont know that the license will turn up in the mail by the weekend, but might just drive up for a look anyway.. Cheers:thumb_up:
Guest Mad Dave Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 Woo Hoo! Well done, not too many booby traps then? I might see you there. Dave
