This blog is about flying in light aircraft over Australia. It is based on my 54 years of flying over and around Australia’s outback and cities. Initially there will be stories of my early flying days but, since I am still flying, I intend to add photos, video and stories of more recent flying.

ABOUT US
I am an old but certainly not bold pilot of light aeroplanes. I have always believed the old flying adage that there are old pilots and there are bold pilots but there are no old bold pilots. My lifelong love of flying came to me from my late father who gave me a gift that I will be grateful for as long as I live.
A light aeroplane is like a magic carpet; it can take you places and show you sites that delight the senses and inflame your sense of adventure..
