Here are a few more. Someone asked if I had any flying experience and I answered yes. I used to fly lighties and even a Bellanca (Decathlon) a fully aerobatic aircraft and last flew in command in 1984. One young lad said 'Gee thats before I was born!'
My nephew Matthew is only 19 and he was quite pleased I had no hesitation flying with him. He has more hours of solo (without instructor) navs to rack up and I will go on a few more. Next time weather permitting we will get a high resolution pic of Kens place in Snake Valley. Weather was marginal for a solo nav yesterday westwards of Pt Cook therwise would have gone that way.

The first pic is of the new tollway with Mt Dandenong in the background. The second is Melbourne CBD. Third Williamstown in the foreground and the You Yangs on the horizon. Fourth is Pt Cook Airforce Base from downwind leg of the circuit.
I had forgotten how much fun it used to be.Exif data should be intact on all images.
