    Well evening folks, this site keeps telling me to introduce myself so here goes. previously flew gliders through air cadets went solo then went broke so saved some pennies then went flying gyros (uncle wanted to do photography out of one needed a pilot) uncle changed mind no gyro for solo then broke!! now looking at ra aus for when i got the pennies again to fly to get back into it. More a forum watcher then a contributor not a lot an earthbound bloke can contribute at the moment. But for now I’ll keep hassling Scotty to take me flying!!!!!

    i did my solo through the air cadets back in the 90's it was great every school holidays go to bathurst and have a ball two groups one week each was the standard back then i cant recall a single disagreement whilst i was going down there.

    well im cheating coz it would be in a gyro but fly till you found the softest looking trees then get low and slow as you can in a gyro then a controlled vertical descent onto the trees. and climb at best rate for as long as i could finding those trees

    i sang row row row your boat, a little bit of tradition apparently. then the s***s started as i realised no one told the tug pilot i was first solo and we were heading for 2000ft AGL where the lift was had to get him on the radio to take me back closer to the strip.

    have to put my two bobs worth in here i started flying in an old blanik glider and side slipping was a standard approach i can say now that i am glad i did as it has come in handy with every other aircraft i have flown most recently the gyro albeit only to compensate for the x wind landings. ( only gyro training and only ever soloed the gliders so experience very limited).
