The old and the new.... Yesterday I met and got to nurse our nine day old Great-Grand-Daughter, Sadie Jayne Cheetham, for the first time. Our Grand-Son, Matthew Cheetham and his wife Keah also have a son, four year old Nate, so now Nate has a sister and Frances and I have five Great-Grand-Daughters and three Great-Grand-Sons...Franco

All`s well at Deeral! no Kovid-19 up here! I`m still flying once a week on average, people still asking me to take them Drifter flying, so I do! life`s good at Deeral. One of my recent solo flights to the Atherton Tablelands, I did this one a couple of weeks ago and another one since and I`ll post that one also, if anyone want`s to see it....Franco https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5qNcipV3e4&feature=youtu.be

On the weekend these guys turned up to see what Drifter flying is all about, so I showed them! I don`t know why the video screen is black but footage is there once you start it. Domonic Bryant-1.m4v

I regularly do some landings on my North-South strip to maintain my ability, this was yesterday...Keep in mind, I`m flying over my own property and I only do it solo. Franco.

Some footage I shot and put together on a solo flight I did with my Drifter, last Friday, from our property here at Deeral... I started learning, from the internet, how to put a video together about 3 weeks ago and this is my second video... Franco. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urRSVL-Xgc8&t=3s

Terrible bug this flying bug and now I`ve caught the video bug. Last Friday I was working with the excavator, here on our property, I needed a break so I went flying, shot some footage then put it together. In the afternoon, I took up Rachel Platte and her father, who is up here for Rachel`s birthday! Rachel lives a couple of hundred meters up the road and has flown with me previously but for her father, it was his first Ultralight flight. Just a side not! a while ago, Rachel brought a lady friend of hers here, for her first Ultralight flight! the lady was so impressed that she said she was going to learn to fly a Drifter so I gave her the information she needed! last Friday, Rachel told me the lady is now taking flying lessons, up in Darwin, where she lives.

New bloke with a KFM112 engined Kitfox mk2
farri replied to skellywelly's topic in Just Landed - Welcome
Don`t know if I`m any help but there`s a KitFox with a KFM engine in it, sitting under a house, not far from here! the guy built it himself and he flew it from our property here at Deeral for several years! he`s now in his 80`s, not in good health and hasn`t flown it for a few years. If you are on facebook I can put you in touch with him! you`ll find me here, on facebook https://www.facebook.com/franco.arri -
A couple of better photos!
-
It is interesting because the camera can`t move so I`m assuming it was just the Drifter moving around, there was turbulence! apparently the camera does have some inbuilt stabilization so it could be the camera making adjustments. I`ve just started using the GoPro Hero 8 Black and I`ve got a lot to learn! by the way! in the photo the camera looks much larger than it really is due to the way I took the photo! it doesn`t impair my vision at all because I`m actually looking over the top of it. Oh! it can`t come off either.

? Seems to still be there!

G`Day O-K, It really is my first video! I just started a week ago by downing loading, 'Openshot' and 'Olive' both free programs, then spending the required time with online tutorials. This morning I worked out how to upload to youtube and that made it possible to post the video here. I have several adhesive mounting bases (for want of a better word) so I stuck one to the front, in the center of the wind-screen, about 10 inches from the top! I can see the screen and I can reach over the top to start and stop the recording... Because the recorded files can end up so large I took several short videos then narrowed it down to what you see. Franco.

G`Day guys! I now have a 'GoPro hero 8 black' and I`ve just started learning to use a couple of programs to create and edit videos`. This was some of my flying yesterday afternoon and my first attempt at creating a video and posting it to youtube.

I saw an Air-Bike for the first time at Donnington Air Park, back in the early eighties! loved it and I certainly would fly one, given the chance. Franco.

G`Day Charles,......... I fly from our rural property at Deeral! I`m 11 nautical miles as the Crow flies and about 15 klm by road, south of Gordonvale. When do you plan on arriving here and how many aircraft would want to land? Franco (Frank)

farri replied to Garfly's topic in AUS/NZ General Discussion
Absolutely incredible! Thank you Garry. -
Martyn, I`ve just remembered that way back I test flew this AC for a guy who`d purchased it but hadn`t flown it! I recall it as a Pelican (?)! could your AC possibly be this one?...That`s me in it. Franco.
