    Thanks for the invite. We’re enjoying a rare weekend off together with some friends at Black Point from Sat - Mon.

    But when we get our own beach house and an aircraft (which seems quite likely) we’d be keen for that sort of thing.

    I found this interesting.

    He drives an electric car, so that's a good start, then flies a Cirrus IFR through poor weather and gets icing too. All fascinating and relevant to the training I'm currently undertaking.

    That's not the answer. Encourage him to fly twins for all our sake.

    It would be considered rude if I were as thin skinned as others.

    Yes, but they're miles from anywhere. There's one south of Gympie.

    Are they? I didn't think that was the case.

    Gympie? I'll check it out

    There are a few of those "community" airfields in Oz, but it's nothing like in the US.

    Here in SA, Goolwa is trying to create something like that.

    Not as yet.

    And then he abused and blocked everyone who disagreed with him. As you can imagine, it was quite a list.

    I just populated an electronic log book.

    Only as a back up, of course.

    It's MEANT to automatically fill in with times, tracks and landings. We'll see about that.

    Flying/testing it on Tuesday.
