Narranndera


Recommended Posts

I remember Narrandera fondly .

Many years ago I was enroute Holbrook - Narrandera with the intention  to do some NDB let downs, had an instructor on board .

The turbulence was kind of rough , the instrument panel was vibrating badly and almost impossible to focus on ,

I thought at the time that there was no way in hell that I would be able to maintain IFR tolerances during a let down on instruments , my instructor , who was a great guy said nothing , leaving all the decision making up to me ,

well stupidly I perservered , in the back of the aircraft we had a canvas bag with tie down gear , including heavy steel stakes , all of a sudden there was an almighty deafening crashing sound as the tie down bag hit the roof of the cockpit due to the turbulence .

At that point I advised the instructor that I was doing a 180 for Holbrook , his only reaction was "Good choice" .

Cheers

Karol
