Going up with the CFI this weekend [weather permitting] in a PA28-201R. <BR/><BR/>Just like the Arrow at AAC, except the fancy wing [like FOS had] and an extra 100 litres of fuel :-) plus a few other bits and pieces...<BR/><BR/>It's got around 6 hours endurance [almost longer than a bladder :-) ha ha ha]. It's apparantly in excellent condition inside and out [looked good to me].Rodneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15333107141651747690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15818418.post-1140303672934721692006-02-19T12:01:00.000+13:002006-02-19T12:01:00.000+13:00Hi Gavin,Yeah - a bit different from AR!I do have ...Hi Gavin,<BR/><BR/>Yeah - a bit different from AR!<BR/><BR/>I do have some photos of PA28 and PA38 aircraft. Unfortunately, with only a 3xoptical zoom lens they end up being extremely hard to find [could be good for a quiz night comp if you're interested! ha ha ha]. Likewise with smaller commuter types such as light twins and heavy singles.<BR/><BR/>What I really need is a new camera, 10xoptical zoom and I'd be right :-)<BR/><BR/>I'll try and remember to take a couple of shots at the wn aero club later today... give you a look at what I'm flying now [not that exciting!].Rodneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15333107141651747690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15818418.post-1140295991130883602006-02-19T09:53:00.000+13:002006-02-19T09:53:00.000+13:00Nice pic of the Qantas with the shadow on the runw...Nice pic of the Qantas with the shadow on the runway!Martin Scharnkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03533029445412134678noreply@blogger.com
