    All of UniSA's C172 aircraft are being sold and they're moving entirely over to Flight Training Adelaides fleet. Initial training will be on Tobago TB10's.

    [/url] [/url] Apparently they have 5 aircraft in there name and they're all operated by Flight Training Adelaide. Im up to the stage where I only have to sit an aptitude test and have an interview. I have been accepted in to a Bachelor of aviation which is run concurrently with the flying section. Here's information about their 'new' 2016 courses .

    I'm pretty sure i've read somewhere that they're using their own aircraft and contract the operations over to another school. Dont quote me on that but its what i've heard! I have an interview on Monday for entry into the flying component so its still there :)

    oh sorry, i understand now! thanks mate!
  5. andrewp628
    i do have an interview coming up soon so i'll enquire then. Im not really too keen on sticking a go pro on the exterior to start with so hopefully they'll allow one in the cockpit im sure i'll make do somehow :)

    I meant in the video! fixed that now i hadn't actually heard about that! that changes my plans abit! but i know ill be doing a good amount of extra flying outside of university, maybe about once a fortnight, so ill still be getting lots of footage. thanks for the heads up though!

    Hey guys, been ages since i've posted anything here! i've now got Cockpit intercom in the video! In 2016 im moving to Adelaide to undertake a Bachelor of Aviation and get my license's upto and beyond my CPL over the 3 years im there. ill hopefully be cataloging most/ if not all my lessons and posting regular updates on my youtube channel. I'am Certainly looking forward to the adventure! Little write up about the lesson below Because of the location of my town, Geraldton WA, westerly winds meet with easterly's in early afternoon, this often causes strong winds and constant direction changes. Unfortunately i had a lesson right in the middle of that time. During the course of the hour we used 3 runways 08, 14,and 21. also making an appearance were several large 'Willy Willy's' (or ¿Dust Devil's? unsure of the proper term). so altogether it was certainly a challenging experience! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kjxm06vaYc4

    thanks Adam! Surely wouldn't be too hard! Well especially with the audio connector you'll be able to hear the AWIS yourself! wont be flying for a couple of weeks now as i have a few other commitments but still won't be too long before the next one.

    you're right, We took off upwind, turned downwind then headed for the training area, apologies for the confusion!
  11. andrewp628
    wasn't too hot compared to usual in Geraldton, also not much of a headwind really! Must of been a great experience for those fly's going that fast for once

    i decided to make this video just an approach and departure time-lapse as the nature of this lesson was repetitive. A few things before the link is posted, I expected to have an audio adapter prior to this lesson, but that didn't happen. so all i've done is removed/lowered the music at takeoff and landing. so sorry about that! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWpKXYmEgRc as always subscribe/like/comment to keep me motivated to make various videos in the future :D

    HaHa thanks Phil. i still dont have an adapter to record audio through my GoPro, i have one ordered so after my next video expect longer videos with cockpit audio. i found the sound to be really screwed up and a time-lapse seemed to be the only real option for me. but thanks for all the suggestions! I always appreciate it. thanks, Andrew

    Thanks heaps! YGEL has just a few jets and turboprops here and there during the day and quite a bit of charter work also but i think its a great place to learn without too much stress regarding other traffic(whilst still being exposed a bit), currently studying a short course at uni so i am just flying for fun until i can regain full time work hours and fly a lot more and then you'll be seeing loads of videos posted! thanks soooo much for sharing it! (p.s. if you ever get the chance to fly in Geraldton, you definitely wont regret it! amazing and beautiful place from the sky!) http://i.imgur.com/QAWSsdY.jpg

    flying out of Geraldton (YGEL), currently dont have to an audio connector for my GoPro, so the audio wasn't very good so thats the reason for the music and time-lapse. But I did just recently purchase an adapter so my next video will have audio!
