MF> JC>Do you see any  warbirds flying
MF> JC> around? 
MF> Yep, theres a few of them around.  Warbirds Aero Club is based not
MF>far  from my place.  One of the pilots from my work is the Newhew of
MF>Alan  Wallace - heard of him? Hes famous all over the country as a
MF>bit of a  flying wizz.  Recently had an accident down at Wanaka
MF>flying a genuine  Spitfire Mk14(?) - clipped the ground on a low
MF>pass.  Made it out by  pure fluke.
Haven't heard of him but then we don't get lots of information from 
"Down Under".
MF> JC> That's great and thanks for the information.  See
MF> JC> what you can dig up to  tell us about light plane flying there.
MF> I'll see wha I can dig out of some friends ;)
Do you have the local sod or grass fields there or has it turned to the 
large airports?  Seems that the small local airports here are pretty 
much a thing of the past.  That's why Ultra-Lite flying is becoming so 
popular here.....Jim......
