    Although I have many hours on the shrike I am still in awe at Bob Hoover's skill with this aircraft! [MEDIA=youtube]W2-9BL7sllk[/MEDIA]

    A delightful, fully aerobatic aircraft although I was never game to try an outside loop!

    That sounds familiar. I think the flight was from Wangaratta maybe associated with the museum.

    I recall going for a tiger moth flight in that same area in about 1981. I think the pilot's name was Di Simpson?? Anyone recall?

    A great bush aircraft. I did charter in NW WA in the late 80's; -300. The manual flap lever was very handy. On a rough strip pull some more flap- a bit like a collective on a helo! Get airborne quicker then SLOWLY feed the flap away and climb away!

    There is a story in the South Australian Aviation Museum, May20 newsletter you might find of interest. Www.saam.org.au

    Know a bloke who had an engine fail at 200' in a C206 flying survey on a downwind run near Kalgoorlie. Just happened to be a dirt track in the right place at the right time..... and put it down without a scratch. Sometimes you get lucky but not this time.
