Lilydale Flying Club has been offered the chance to tour the GippsAero factory at Latrobe Valley Airport on 20 February in the morning. This is a great opportunity to see how the Airvans are made, what’s happening with the turbine Airvan 10 and have a look at some things in the hangar they call “Dreamland.”
It’s a quick fly down to LTV and there’s a great aero club there that we can put up our heels and drink coffee in later on. They might even have a spare sausage for us.
Get your name on the starters list now by sending an e-mail to Steve Hitchen hitchy@iinet.net.au
The first LFS/LFC nav challenge for 2016 is on Sunday 28 February.
If you haven’t been on one of these before, it’s a little nav exercise around Victoria for all students/instructors and PPLs who want to explore some lesser-visited airports. There’s clues to solve, lunch to be had and a lot of laughs along the way. If you want to get in on what is a great day of fun and flying, put your name down at the LFS desk (03) 9739 1211.
LFC’s pilot photo shoot day went fantastically well yesterday. Eight pilots and aircraft formed-up on C172 ISD for the cameras and we got some pretty reasonable images that we weren’t going to get any other way.
Heaps of thanks to formation pilots Jock Folan, Murray Gerraty, Dave Woodland, Bob Irvine and Craig Hammond. Without your professional flying skills this would have been absolutely impossible to do.
We’ll probably have to do another shoot sooner rather than later, so if you’re interesting in getting a great high-res shot of yourself in the command seat, give your details to Steve Hitchen hitchy@iinet.net.au as soon as your ready. We’ll set a date once we know there’s more interest is what is a great fun exercise for all involved. Have a look at some of these images of LFC members.
