What's an Aerochute
04. Mar 2009 at 19:10

Hi Caboolture, my name is Mike, I've been a member for nearly 2 years and have clocked up around 60 hours in that time Flying this type in our area. I've also done a bit of mustering with a lot of success. Most wouldn't see our type flying around YCAB because we mainly fly between 6 and 8am due to wind.
I have also had a fly with the Gyro guys and am currently taking lessons with Zane in the Technam.
Anyhow, just wanted to say hello, the forum seems to be a bit quiet so thought I would add my bit.

Hi Sean, Peter,

Thanks for the welcome. The 3979-er is a good old girl, next lesson is Banking & Turns.
Peter there are 3 out of Caboolture and another couple at Watts Bridge with about 15 in the South East Corner. I fly weather permitting once or twice a week at 6 - 7am. Had a great fly this morning, great conditions. Took a mate up for 40 mins local.
Apart from the weather we are also limited by the Aero Club, they don't want us in the air when 'Conventional' Aircraft are operating.
