[ozskywatcher (Josie)]

Hi all,

Thanks to comments from IceinSpace members, I have ruled out the Meade 16inch as not being portable enough.

Can anyone comment on their use of the 12 inch Skywatcher Flex tube dobsonian (non-tracking version). I am after a scope suitable for casual use and for showing school students the sky (at nights run by my local astronomical society).

Regards,

Paul Floyd
