nwarthmann Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 Hello! I am a young scientist (Biology)/pilot, based at the ANU in Canberra, Australia. I have had a PPL for a while and I just added the RAA-AUS. I am really happy that I discovered this world of aviation enthusiasts! I am now thinking of buying my own aircraft, probably a Skyfox. Not sure yet whether the Gazelle or the tailwheel. I train with Guy Bowley at Blue Shed Aviation in Temora, which is an awesome experience. His tailwheel skills are amazing and I hope he can get me up to speed on those. Oh, and I am available for the odd ferry flight you guys might need. I like travelling and have quite a bit of time at my disposal. So please get in touch! Same is true if you currently have a Skyfox for sale. It will be used for pleasure as well as for science! all the best and good luck you all! Dr Norman Warthmann, Canberra 1
Old Koreelah Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 Welcome Norman. Occurs to me that a biologist doing fieldwork might need a STOL aircraft.
nwarthmann Posted July 3, 2016 Author Posted July 3, 2016 Hello Old Koreelah, yes, I am thinking the same, hence my practicing of tailwheel. Would you by any chance know any biologists doing fieldwork with airplanes?
Old Koreelah Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 None with tertiary qualifications but a few who like to get into tight situations!
68volksy Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 Welcome Norman! Come visit us at Goulburn any time you're after an aviation fix or an excuse for a short nav. BBQ's on the first Saturday of every month at the Canberra/Goulburn Aviation hanger.
