Bankstown Saturday 5th Nov 2011
On my way back from an aerobatic flight in a Pitts S-2B down at Camden yesterday, I wanted to stop in at Bankstown to have a look at
the two new EFIS equipped Warriors at Schofields. Also new is a Redbird Full Motion Sim with a C182 G1000 Panel, which is used as part of the conversion to the EFIS cockpit, two hours dual in the aircaft, one hour in the Redbird simulator and a one day EFIS theory course. I was also on the lookout for Cessna C172S N5224A which was recently ferried to Sydney and mentioned in another thread. Unfortunately it was not to be seen, maybe in a hanger for conversion back to the standard configuration, Piper Warrior VH-ZFY (2842268) 2006 is equipped with an Avidyne PFD and MFD, and dual Garmin 430s. One the left there is a traditional backup Air Speed Indicator, Artificial Horizon and Altimeter. VH-ZFX and ZFY are both very clean and well presented aircraft. http://www.16right.com/MessageBoard/...-11-05-065.jpg Piper Warrior VH-ZFY (2842268) 2006 - sister ship VH-ZFX is similarly equipped. http://www.16right.com/MessageBoard/...-11-05-066.jpg Diamond DA-20-C1 VH-DIU (C0531) 2008 on the flight line. http://www.16right.com/MessageBoard/...-11-05-067.jpg Diamond DA-40 VH-END (40.448) 2004 on the flight line. http://www.16right.com/MessageBoard/...-11-05-070.jpg Cessna 750 VH-RCA (750-0012) 1997 operated by Business Aviation Solutions - this is one beautiful corporate jet and I believe one of the fastest point to point corporate jets around. http://www.16right.com/MessageBoard/...-11-05-054.jpg Cessna 750 VH-RCA (750-0012) 1997 operated by Business Aviation Solutions http://www.16right.com/MessageBoard/...-11-05-055.jpg Cessna 750 VH-RCA (750-0012) 1997 operated by Business Aviation Solutions http://www.16right.com/MessageBoard/...-11-05-061.jpg Cessna 750 VH-RCA (750-0012) 1997 operated by Business Aviation Solutions http://www.16right.com/MessageBoard/...-11-05-062.jpg Cessna 525A VH-RJB (525A-0094) 2002 operated by Edwards Coaches http://www.16right.com/MessageBoard/...-11-05-058.jpg Cessna 550 VH-CFO (550-0669) 1991 operated by Professional Jet Aviation http://www.16right.com/MessageBoard/...-11-05-063.jpg |
