  1. Flyins are great as they really are a social event where we can have endless discussions about our aircraft and flying them ! Airshows are often a bit commercial. I always attend the Antiquers annual flyin - they have activities organised and its great to catch up with friends.
  2. The one that hit me was in attack mode. Hit the wing near the fuselage. Wakes you up. Pushed the leading edge back quite a way.
  3. Happened to me a couple of months ago in the middle of the Nullabor ! Lots of damage
  4. Hi Nev, are you still riding ? Veterans down your way in October
  5. I plan on being there - although my aircraft may not be as its in maintenance. Was well attended last year. Hopefully the weather is OK
  6. I use a PingUSB - it does use USB for power only and connects to ipad via Wifi. It would not be suitable if you dont have a sim in the ipad and expect to use Wifi to connect to phone hotspot. I love it but sometimes its a little sensitive to position in the aircraft relative to the ipad. We flew about 12 hours on a trip last weekend with no issues.
  7. The amount of information we get from EFBs these days is amazing. We did what we had to before them but I think its much safer now.
  8. I have not tried SWS yet on my recently acquired Cherokee C 180. Will be interested to see what you come up with.
  9. When I had my new aircraft in for avionics work I kept the ADF - its a very classic one - for the look ! However it does still work. Flew over Wagga a couple of weeks ago and tried it out for old times sake.
  10. You are absolutely correct Nev !! About 50 aircraft out in the parking area plus a lot of hangars open. For some reason I can't edit that post to currect
  11. It was a lovely day with quite a nood northout
  12. Yes exactly - I have out on the aircraft already so the skyecho is overkill. They do look like a good thing though.
  13. I now have ADSB out on my aircraft. Have just purchased a uavionix PING ADSB receiver to display ADSB traffic on OzRunways. Have not tried it yet but should give similar input to the Skyecho at a fraction of the price.
