Moruya to Temora by Foxbat

David May flightHere’s a nice little YouTube video of David May flying an A22LS Foxbat to the Recreational Aviation Australia (RA-Aus) annual Easter fly-in – NATFLY – at Temora in New South Wales. It is over 10 minutes long but has nice views of what it’s like to fly inland over the Dividing Range from the south eastern coast of Australia. Some of the reservoirs which are part of the Snowy River Hydro scheme are easily seen. Nice one David!

Small footnote this Foxbat is based at Moruya Airport and has controls adapted for use by pilots who have lost the use of their legs. It is available for training – contact  Sheldon Jones on 0427 102 540

Recreational Aviation Australia – Easter NATFLY

IMG_5362The annual Recreational Aviation jamboree is happening as usual over Easter 2014 at Temora Airfield, NSW. Dates for your diary: 18 & 19 April are the main visitor days. Thursday 17 April is arrival day, Sunday 20 April is departure day. So you don’t miss out – note that most aircraft and exhibitors depart on Sunday morning!

Foxbat Australia will be there – look for us on adjoining display spaces 11 & 13. We hope to have on show a Foxbat with controls adapted for disabled pilots, which has been in training use at Moruya Air for almost 3 years. I’m also expecting Sydney Recreational Flying to be there as usual, offering TIFs (Trial Instruction Flights) in one or both their club Foxbats.

And who knows? there may be a ‘Show Special’ or two around…..
