Hi Nige,Re the first flight with your nephew..... He must be a bloody good
pilot!Seriously though, we as a group would not do enough cross country soaring
I'm sure and your 100kph av flight was a great effort.My last cross country
flight was a few years ago from Temora to a fair way back to Camden. Average
speed was nowhere near the 100 and it was heavy work soaring at max weight but
what a good feeling to land back at Camden with almost full fuel.LauriePS. Just
kidding about not recognising the white stiff Kristin. We get to see it every
time we open the freezer!

AAAAHHHH come on Laurie that’s obviously extremely low scattered cloud.
My last flight was instructing with my nephew. It was 38deg and I only did it
cause of the cue and figured the engine wouldn’t run for long.
It didn’t.
At 700feet and 180deg CHT we went to idle and soared to 9000. Engine was cooled
down and shut off at 2000. Bear in mind it was 38 outside and we were climbing
at 8 knots so 2000 was where the temps got to 120 for shut down.
That was January and gee we had some top weather. Bloody hot but great at about
7000 or so.
Trouble is eventually you have to come down. That’s the sad part.
Pressures from other quarters meant I didn’t get to do some cross country work
to try and better last year’s effort.
So I will continue to remember my little sortie solo last year. FIA 100K
triangle in 1 hour 6 mins wheels off the runaway to wheels on for six minutes
of engine for the launch.
Top height 11,000.
Best climb in excess of 10 knots. Don’t know the peak as I don’t have an
average’er and the audio and needle were pegged at ten.
Ground temp was 36.
Cue was abundant.
Dimona pilots dream.
Nige.

Hi Kristin,
Great videos!
I'm just wondering what that white stuff is in many of them though!
Best Regards
Laurie

Dear Dimona owners,
I have been playing around making music videos of flying in the H36 around
Maine, those of you in the heat down under especially might appreciate a taste
of winter ops:

I'm no Rob Thompson professional producer, but having fun!
Cheers,
