  1. Yes. Worked at st Barbara's meeka and plutonic between meeka and Newman. Bloody hot in the summer. Years ago when I was at daveyhurst there was a couple who worked their mine all winter and went home to Mandurah for the summer. Great lifestyle.
  2. the zodiac is working well for you mb. nice aircraft.
  3. wongan hills in summer will only be 39 instead of 42 at cue😁
  4. i know of 3 that have chucked it in this year. getting too hard and expensive is what they are saying.
  5. If your aircraft is based at yltv you get the bonus of no landing fees for locals
  6. Yes. There are usually a few spare spots . Join the flying club and you have access to the tie downs and club facilities. It's a great club to be in.
  7. No. The jabiru I just purchased has been uncovered outside for a few years and is good. I know of a 230 that has been left outside with no covers since new. It's been there about 8 years I think. Still looks like new when they wash it
  8. Amber are only in a hangar now until July 31 as you say. They stopped training in March. It's a shame to see what they did to the place. No hope of a hangar at Latrobe valley unless you are very lucky . I think there is a waiting list anyway.
  9. I am just starting to doubt myself after all these replys saying different to what I have been told. Would love to see what actually happens if someone flys in during an active period.
  10. Why don't you jump in an raaus plane and fly into sale when the area is active. Then report what you learn.
  11. Well I thought I did get it from their website originally but now I can't find that one.
  12. He needs to contact these sites and correct it. Those are the fees shown on a couple of different sites.
  13. I thought he had it for a long time. My mistake.
  14. He has owned it for years
  15. The fees I quoted are from the current owner unless they have just sold it. Website may not have been updated
  16. I have never looked into it that much. I know some people have been working with the RAAF trying to establish corridors in and out of sale but nothing yet that I know of. The main problem I think is the RAAF do a lot of training at West sale and probably don't want annoying civilians getting in the way.
  17. no movement from west sale when airspace is activated. only the flying school operates because they are commercial.
  18. wondering if anyone knows what the worlds longest running thread is. the never ending story on here started in February 2008. surely it must be close to a record.
  19. I would never land there for that rate. $60 is rediculous. Maybe you get a 3 course meal included.😁
  20. At my local airfield. West sale. It would take them a week to get a hundred bucks. I don't know why they think it's worth upsetting everyone for that. It's a no fly zone 5 days a week for private pilots. And usually 2 or 3 people flying on the weekend.
  21. latrobe valley airport has a reasonable system. if you are hangared there you don't get charged at all.
  22. Casual $60 Ultra Lights & 2 seater singles Private Single $60 Under 5700 kg Private Twin $60 Under 5700 kg lakes entrance this is privately owned i think
  23. they are not modest for a lot of people training in the circuit . it would be ok if they said pay $20 and do as many t&gs as you like for the day. paying it 4 times an hour for a trainee pilot gets expensive. one off visits are a different story. lakes entrance charges like as wounded bull
  24. ok i must have misunderstood. sorry
