BLUE IS FOR OTHER DIMONA h36 owners

Bob

Do you have contacts with local AAFC at Lismore and I think we should come
to a deal with them for flying.

I should report on Sunday at Amberly I had a Cadet with huge thighs and when
I pulled Dimona handle back to feather I had no RH stick movement.
Immediately I went back to partial feather to improve situation and when
came into land I fully unfeathered prop and had full control again.  Next
big legged Cadet I changed to LH seat and put them in RH seat where there is
no problem.

It was awful feeling for about 5 sec till I realised the problem but I will
never be caught again!!! Lesson learnt!!

Another time Brian and I did not see each other till last minute  Brian got
chipped for a call on saturday for a "Longish final 15 Grass right"  In hind
site it would be a good idea to agree say ideally base on C17 hangar and if
different report "long final" or "turning short final"

Sorry about security and all the problems at the gate!!!
