Capnsully Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 A belated 7th birthday present. And the scenery is almost as good as Orbx! A modded C206, stalls at 30kt, so he did some crazy banks! Really good fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paddler Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Sad for the plane. Another example of why you should follow check lists without exception and not just to pay lip service to them when you go through them. There is no replacement for attention to detail in activities where the consequences of error are significant. Admittedly, a lesson I often relearn thankfully with only minor consequences resulting.

Ryan Mason Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Just answered my own question, sure was, bloody shame, i saw that thing hundreds of times airborne... />http://tools.geelongadvertiser.com.au/photo-gallery/photo_gallery_popup_preview.php?category_id=27635&offset=20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capnsully Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 Yes, it is sad Ryan, is was a sturdy bird too. Hopefully they can get it repaired quickly or lease a replacement, or the joyflight heli will have a monopoly around there for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capnsully Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 Haha, who knows. As long as he's happy. I say to people he'll either be a great Prime Minister or Dictator! Scary about what could have happened. Sadly I won't sit up front again, rather next to him so I can grab him if there's another accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
