Aerotow 2010 - August 14th/15th

Quick question. if I were to bring my wild thing, while on the tow who would be on the sticks? Me as a student or the supervisor/instructor? what's the score with insurance?

You can treat it like a normal flight Marty. You can be on the sticks of the Wildthing, with someone supervising. The tug pilot would be flying the tug, obviously. Insurance wise, it is all covered, so long as you have someone supervising.

Anyway, you should be good to go for your A test at teh weekend, right? I've got an airframe under construction that you can fly for it

Gulp lol That sound great Andy but I'm mode 1?

gosh Marty plenty of time to get into the right mood ( Marks spelling for mode)

It doesn't matter. It takes me approx 3 minutes to swap my TX over from mode2 to mode1

Takes about 4 weeks after they receive the pass cert.

For those interested we are going to meet Sunday 0800 at the Whistlestop cafe on the HTM Industrial Park for breakfast, it has moved from original place to somewhere else on the estate, although I don't know exactly, Mark will comment soon

**Cafe***

Drive into the estate, past the sheds on the right the cafe is now in a bigger premisis set back on the right in the corner

I do hope they have stocked up on Bacon, I've decided I shall have my Hungry head with me on Sunday....

After what's been a basically crap day today I went down to the field this evening to help Rich check out his Wilga for tow duties tomorrow. All went well and the wind dropped to nothing and the sun adorned the field. We sat having a coffee chewing the fat and both regretting that we neither of us had a foamy with us to take advantage of the conditions. Things look good foe tomorrow

I have some Flair tow releases, Iwill bring them tomorrow.

We all had a rather excellent sunny rain free day up the PSSA meet
Ive invited a few of the PSS guys to the aerotow, so we may need a few extra burgers.

We're cheque book modellers not "Burger Kings"

I will be coming tomorrow, with my video camera, cougar and breeze!!
