Thanks Bob - at least i'm not loosing it 🙂

Guess since we're not doing a huge amount of antartic flying, it wont give us the same challenges as the yanks...

Thanks Aviatordan,

Yeah it sounds like you need a faster aircraft too 😉 No seriously appreciate the advice, the bit about "it's 70nm West before you hit the next isogonal and even then it only changes by 1/2 degree" is really relevent".

I fly on both sides, but for now am based on Perth, I get over east about every three months to do some flying.

Where abouts are you over east?

Brook

I do need a faster aircraft! The TAS on the 172 I fly (or even the Arrow) is not anywhere near fast enough! I wish someone would throw a Hornet my way...

I live on the Central Coast, about an hour and a half north of Sydney (by car). Who do you fly for that lets you go from coast to coast? Get me a job with them? =P

I'm glad I could help, mate =].

I've got my AGK exam tomorrow so Ive been studying like mad over the last few days, hence the lag in replying!

Have a good one!!!

Hi AviatorDan

Yes that TAS can get you down sometimes. I have my own little outfit on the east coast, but same boat as you, kicking the CPL exams over to make way for ATPL.

Good luck with AGK, make sure you check out my tips in the AGK forum I left some stuff I dumped right outside the exam booth, exam type questions..if you are still up reading this, good luck tomorrow!

Brook

Thanks, Brook =). I did end up reading your tips and they helped a great deal! But yeah, I ended up passing, which was a massive relief. Now onto MET!
