    Tim ( Flyerme) took his maiden flight in his new pride and joy, a Neiuport 11, 7/8 scale at Aldinga Airfield. After a thorough pre flight by the two of us, a few words on the airfield operations and some encouragement, Tim taxi-tested the aircraft and when comfortable, took to the air for a circuit, a few more were to follow and then back to the hangar happier than a pig in excrement ! The smile will be there for a while. Well done mate, your baby is up and running. Video to follow !

    Does anyone know where I can get Carlisle Turf Glide 8.00 - 6 4 ply tyres ? Oh, and at a reasonable price too if possible.

    RIP guys our hearts go out to the families left behind, they passed away doing what they loved the most.

    Looks like he touched down in the displaced threshold prior to the beginning of the runway ?
  11. Patrick Normoyle
    Have you got it now ?
  12. Patrick Normoyle

    Propbits at Morrabbin airport, ordered stuff today from them, so far they have been awesome, give them a try.

    Terrible news, my heart goes out to all those concerned.

    Glad he is ok, and hope he insured it, hopefully he mark it down as a lesson learned and get back on the horse as soon as he can, maybe with a bit of refresher training. Good luck to him.

    Does anyone know who owns or runs the airstrip called Kensington, it's near Mt Compass between Aldinga and Goolwa airfields.

    Tim's handle is flyerme, try him.

    You could ask Tim from Sherlock just east of Tailem Bend, he got a 582 Lightwing, nice bloke to, he's on here also.
  22. Patrick Normoyle
    Here is my silly answer, maybe a different wing profile, or a slatted wing or wing vortex generators, so if it's 19 reg, you might be able to get the stall speed down thus way.

    Seen it, love it and am on it. Thanks.

    There are about 5 or so at Aldinga, they are always out flying, look and sound good and no complaints I know of.

    We have at least 20 aircraft towed a day at Adelaide, from A330's and B747's to PC12's, they are towed by a vehicle with generally two persons, a driver looking forward and the engineer looking back at the aircraft. No wing walkers or spotters, at a busy airport this would be very dangerous and much less safe. The aircraft guide lines in/out and airport movement limitations guidelines provide more than adequate clearance for manoeuvring aircraft either under power or being towed, that is if everyone is aware of where they are, where they are going and do as they are instructed, then all is good. But we are human and accidents do happen, just the same as the Jetstar A320 and Virgin aircraft at Melbourne.
